Tango tönt durch Nacht und Flieder. Ist's im Kurhaus die Kapelle? Doch es springt mir in die Glieder, Und ich dreh mich schnell und schnelle. Tango -- alle Muskeln spannt er. Urwald und Lianentriebe, Jagd und Kampf -- und wie ein Panther Schleich ich durch die Nacht nach Liebe.

Tango sounds through night and lilacs. Is it in the dance hall, in the band? Wherever, it dances in my limbs, And I turn myself fast and faster. Tango - it stretches all the muscles. Jungles and liana vines, The hunt, the fight - and, like a panther I slither through the night for love.
