Discover the story of the song > Milonga Sentimental – Otros Aires

The protagonist is singing a sentimental milonga (a type of tango) about a partner who betrayed him. He sings to cope with the pain, but also to express his love and forgiveness for her. He wonders if she will ever know or believe that he has forgiven her, and even jokes that it might make her laugh to see him so vulnerable. He acknowledges that it's easy to seek revenge or play with emotions, but it's much harder to let go of the deep ties they had. He sings that he hopes she will return at night and leave with the sun, so he can sometimes say yes to her and sometimes scream no.
