(Vals)

Guitarrero viejo, astroso y borracho,
musiquero alterno de almacén y bar,
dónde tu instrumento, cantador y macho,
ha ido a parar.

Sabías aquellas milongas de antaño
de música ingenua y verso trivial
o algún tango triste, de los que hacen daño
al zurdo cordial.

La vieja guitarra, de estropeadas cuerdas,
con cintas que el tiempo cambió de color,
cantaba a la heroica Paysandú, ¿recuerdas?
y a un amor-dolor.*

He visto en las sombras el vaso de vino
crisparte la mano, no su diapasón;
escupir la tierra como a tu destino,
como a tu canción.

Y con una pobre mina veterana,
salir dando tumbos, náufragos los dos,
hacia la burlona paz de la mañana,
sin pan y sin dios.


* Alfredo Zitarrosa dice "cantaba a la heroica Paysandú, a la guerra / o a un amor-dolor".
