Spanish term or phrase: y una poesia de su alma para la tuya

I am translating a travel document that is written in an elaborate, highly stylistic way.

Context: Esta noche se la dedicaremos entre otros al Tango, permitenos hoy decirte Buenos Noches, con unos apuntes sobre este mito, "y una poesia de su alma para la tuya."

All ideas very welcome and appreciated.
