"But it's the old love
that trembles, bandoneon,
and searches in a liquor that stuns
the drunkenness that at the end
ends the show,
drawing a curtain over the heart."

Anibal Troilo - Catulo Castillo
(translated by Alberto Paz - Planet Tango)

"Tonight, my friend,
with alcohol we're getting drunk;
I don't care if they laugh
and call us "tipsy."
Everyone has their sorrows
and we have ours.
Tonight we will drink
because we won't ever
see each other again... "

Juan Carlos Cobian - Enrique Cadicamo
(translated by Alberto Paz - Planet Tango)
