Perfidia (Bolero) por Alberto Domínguez Borrás (con partitura – sheet music)
Letra:
Nadie comprende lo que sufro yo
Canto pues ya no puedo sollozar,
Solo temblando de ansiedad estoy
Todos me miran y se van
Mujer,
Si puedes tú con Dios hablar,
Pregúntale si yo alguna vez
Te he dejado de adorar
Y al mar,
Espejo de mi corazón,
Las veces que me ha visto llorar
La perfidia de tu amor
Te he buscado dondequiera que yo voy,
Y no te puedo hallar,
Para qué quiero otros besos
Si tus labios no me quieren ya besar
Y tú,
Quien sabe por donde andarás
Quien sabe que aventuras tendrás
Que lejos estas de mi
Te he buscado dondequiera que yo voy
Y no te puedo hallar,
Para qué quiero otros besos
Si tus labios no me quieren ya besar.
Y tú,
Quien sabe por donde andarás
Quien sabe que aventuras tendrás
Que lejos estas de mi
De mi
De mi
El bolero Perfidia: de las más famosas canciones de Alberto Domínguez Borrás
Junto con Frenesí, Perfidia es una de las obras más conocidas y versionadas de Alberto Domínguez
Muchas de las canciones que formaron parte de la vida de más de una generación; poco a poco están pasando a formar parte de nuestra historia. Una de ellas es Perfidia, un bolero compuesto en 1939.
Esta canción fue muy popular debido a las diversas versiones que se grabaron y difundieron de ella en la década de los 40. Alrededor de 50 artistas grabaron esta canción en diferentes idiomas; por supuesto, con su sello personal. Los Panchos, Luis Miguel, Glenn Miller, Plácido Domingo y Café Tacvba son solo algunos de los músicos que se sumaron a la lista de intérpretes de Perfidia, que a casi 80 años de su composición, se sigue escuchando.
“Mujer; si puedes tú con Dios hablar, pregúntale si yo alguna vez te he dejado de adorar“
El autor, Alberto Domínguez Borrás, era originario de San Cristóbal de las Casas, Chiapas. Comenzó a componer a los 8 años de edad; y su pieza Frenesí, también alcanzó la fama mundial. Esto sucedió gracias al clarinetista Artie Shaw, y poco antes del éxito de Perfidia. Estos dos hechos, al haber pasado con tan poca diferencia temporal, lo consagraron como uno de los mejores músicos mexicanos de la época.
La intérprete Linda Ronstadt incluyó ambos temas en su álbum Frenesí, de 1992. A pesar del cambio de época, Linda se llevó el Premio Grammy de ese año como Mejor Álbum Tropical Latino.
Alberto Domínguez continuó componiendo hasta la década de los 70. Él falleció en la Ciudad de México el 2 de Septiembre de 1975; pero muchas de sus obras como Dos almas, Humanidad e Hilos de plata se convirtieron en referentes importantes de la música nacional.
En septiembre del 2004, el palacio de Bellas Artes realizó un homenaje a los hermanos Domínguez; pues además de Alberto, Armando y Abel Domínguez también eran músicos. Contándolos a ellos, el matrimonio Domínguez Borrás tuvo dieciocho hijos.
Análisis
El tema se inicia con una variante de la progresión doo wop (I-VI-IV-V) en la que el V es sustituido por un II-V. La segunda frase termina en una semicadencia en el relativo menor (V/VI).
Fue incluida en la banda sonora de la película Casablanca, en una escena en un club nocturno de París en la que Humphrey Bogart e Ingrid Bergman bailan juntos.
English lyrics by Milton Needs:
To you
My heart cries out “Perfidia”
For I find you, the love of my life
In somebody else’s arms
Your eyes are echoing “Perfidia”
Forgetful of the promise of love
You’re sharing another’s charms
With a sad lament my dreams are faded like a broken melody
While the gods of love look down and laugh
At what romantic fools we mortals be
And now, I know* my love was not for you
And so I take it back with a sigh
Perfidious one, Goodbye
With a sad lament my dreams are faded like a broken melody
While the gods of love look down and laugh
At what romantic fools we mortals be
And now, I know* my love was not for you
And so I take it back with a sigh
Perfidious one, Goodbye
Goodbye
