Lyrics
Bandoneon arrabalero, viejo fuelle desinflado,
Te encontre como a un pebete que la madre abandono
En la puerta de un convento sin reboque en las paredes,
A la luz de un farolito que de noche te alumbro.
Bandoneon, porque ves que estoy triste y cantar ya no puedo,
Vos sabes que yo llevo en el alma marcao un dolor.
Te lleve a mi pieza, te acune en mi pecho frio,
Yo tambin abandonado me encontraba en el bulin;
Has querido consolarme con tu voz enronquecida
Y tus notas doloridas aumento mi berretin.
Lyrics translation
Bandoneon arrabalero, old bellows deflated,
I found you like a pebete that mother abandoned
At the door of a convent without trailer on the walls,
In the light of a little lamp that I light you at night.
Bandoneon, because you see I'm sad and I can't sing anymore,
You know I have pain in my soul.
I took you to my room, I cradled you on my cold chest,
I was also abandoned in the bulin;
You've wanted to console me with your loud voice
And your sore notes increase my berretin.
