YO SOY DE SAN TELMO lyrics

LYRICS: Arturo Gallucci
MUSIC: Velázquez

Yo soy de San Telmo y vengo
por estos barrios para dejar,
un verso para las madres
y mozas de mi ciudad.

Yo soy un cantor sincero,
sencillo y sentimental,
trabajo como el hornero
y canto como el zorzal.

Siempre supe respetar
al que hablo y trato conmigo,
en San Telmo me conocen
por cantor y buen amigo.

Si hay que calmar el dolor
del que vive padeciendo,
soy primero en la ocasión
para aliviar su corazón.

Quote of the Day

The tango is really a combination of many cultures, though it eventually became the national music of Argentina. -Yo-Yo Ma
