Vargas began his career as a merengue singer in 1980 when he participated in the Festival de la Voz, a Dominican Republic contest that was sponsored by Santo Domingo television's channel 9. He came in second place at that festival.
Two years later, Vargas joined Los Hijos del Rey. An orchestra whose frontmen were Fernando Villalona and Raulin Rosendo. He remained there until 1984 when he joined Dionis Fernandez y El Equipo lasting another 2 years. With Dionis, Vargas began becoming famous, as that orchestra had fan bases in Puerto Rico, Venezuela, Panama and the Eastern coast of the United States, among other places.
Vargas left Dionis in 1986 and became the main lead vocalist for Los Hijos del Rey and released his first full length LP with Karen Records including the hit "La Quiero A Morir", which is indeed a reprise of "Je l'aime à mourir" by french singer Francis Cabrel. He also released another album backed again by LHdR in 1987 scoring another international seccess.
Vargas was also awarded in 1988; the Art Critics Association of the Dominican Republic honored him with their Casandra award for his self-titled concert, "Sergio", giving him the Spectacle of the Year award. He also obtained the Casandra award for best video-clip, for a song named "Vampiras".
In 1989 he was offered a contract to sign the then CBS International. After much contemplation, he left Karen Records and signed with CBS.
1991 was a particularly productive year in Vargas' career; he earned another Casandra award after participating in a television special named "Este es mi Pais" ("This is my Country"). He also received a Casandra to acknowledge his popularity outside the Dominican Republic and he sang in front of 20,000 spectators at New York's Madison Square Garden as part of that city's Carnival of Merengue. He filmed a television special that was directed by Jean Luis Jorge for Sony Music International.
In 1993, Vargas received a golden album, and he was one of the singers that participated in Miami's famous Calle Ocho Festival.
Entry into Politics

Vargas had years earlier launched a protest against claimed government neglect of Villa Altagracia by refusing to cut his hair. Vargas is a member of the Dominican Liberation Party, or PLD.

Sergio Vargas Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Nos miramos con sentimientos, y le dije que me marchaba...
Es la primera vez que te vas de mi, decia mi madre al verme partir...
Es la primera vez que te vas de mi, sus ojos brillaban de tanto sufrir...
Es la primera vez que te vas de mi, que pena tengo...
Es la primera vez que te vas de mi, que pena y que dolor que manera de sufrir...
Es la primera vez que te vas de miiiiiiii.
Madre mia deja de llorar, que muy pronto quiero; quiero regresar...
Voy en busca de mi porvenir, y una vida digna; digna para ti...
Yo se que la distancia no te alejara de mi, decia mi madre al verme partir...
Y que tus 20 anos yo los volvere a vivir, sus labios temblaban, no se que sentir...
Es la primera vez que te vas de mi, que pena tengo...
Es la primera vez que te vas de mi, que pena y que dolor que manera de sufrir...
Es la primera vez que te vas de miiiiiiii.
Madre mia deja de llorar, que muy pronto quiero regresar...
Voy en busca de mi porvenir, y una vida digna; digna para ti...
Ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay
Ay ay ay ay
Voy en busca de mi porvenir, y una vida digna, digna para tiiiii...
No me llore mi viejita, confie en mi, usted sabe que yo no le fallo...
The song "Madre" by Sergio Vargas is a tribute to the love and sacrifice of a mother for her child. The lyrics depict a poignant scene where the singer is leaving his mother to seek his fortune and make a better life for them. As he prepares to depart, he is tearful and emotional, and his mother reassures him that she understands his need to leave and make a new start. She also promises to wait for his return and reminds him that distance will not weaken their bond of love.
The lyrics are simple yet deeply moving, conveying the difficult choices and sacrifices that parents make for their children. The chorus, "Es la primera vez que te vas de mi" (This is the first time you leave me) repeated throughout the song, underscores the sadness and sense of loss felt by both the mother and the child. However, the song ends on a hopeful note as the singer reassures his mother that he will return and make her proud. The song reminds us of the universal, timeless theme of the love and devotion of a mother to her child, and the sacrifices that she is willing to make for his happiness.
