Lyrics
Hoy, que no estoy,
como ves, otra vez
con un tango que no puedo gritar...
Yo, que no tengo tu voz...
Yo, que no puedo ya hablar...

Mensaje
con que mi vieja ternura
de criatura
te está prestando coraje...

Yo, que a lo largo del viaje
sufrí tus ultrajes
en mi soledad...

Nunca quieras mal,
total
la vida ¡qué importa!
Si es tan finita y tan corta
que al fin,
el piolín se corta...

No te aflija el esquinzao
del dolor,
y si el amor te hace caso,
no le niegues tu pedazo
de candor,
que el lindo creerle al amor...

Bueno y nada más,
que siendo bueno,
no hay odio, ni injusticia, ni veneno
que haga mal...

Y hoy, que no estoy
me da pena no estar
a tu lado, cinchando con vos...

Vos, que me hiciste llorar...
vos, que eras todo rencor...

Mensaje...
Mensaje con que te digo
que soy tu amigo
y tiro del carro contigo...

Yo, tan chiquito y desnudo
lo mismo te ayudo
cerquita de Dios
English translation
Today, that I am not here,
as you see, again
with a tango that I can't shout...
I, who don't have your voice...
I, who can no longer speak...

Message
with which my old tenderness
of a creature
is lending you courage...

I, who along the journey
suffered your outrages
in my solitude...

Never wish you ill,
all in all
what does life matter!
If it is so finite and so short
that in the end
the bobbin is cut off...

Don't be afflicted by the corner
of pain,
and if love heeds you,
don't deny it your piece
of candor,
that the nice to believe in love...

Good and nothing more,
that being good,
there is no hatred, no injustice, no poison
that can do evil...

And today, when I'm not here
it makes me sad not to be
by your side, riding with you...

You, who made me cry...
you, who were all rancor...

Message...
Message with which I tell you
that I am your friend
and I pull the cart with you...

I, so small and naked
I'll help you just the same
close to God
