Es toda su fortuna

Hay un fueye que rezonga

En la cortada mistonga

Mientras que una pebeta

Linda como una flor

Espera coqueta
Flirtatious wait
Bajo la quieta luz de un farol

Que tenés el alma inquieta

De un gorrión sentimental
Of a sentimental sparrow
Penas ruego

Esto todo el barrio malevo

Perdoná si al evocarte

En tus muros con mi acero
