Malena

Malena canta el tango como ninguna
y en cada verso pone su corazón
al yuyo de suburbio su voz perfuma.
Malena tiene penas de bandoneón.
tal vez allá, en la infancia, su voz de alondra
tomo ese tono oscuro de callejón;
o acaso aquel romance que solo nombra
cuando se pone triste con el alcohol...
Malena canta el tango con voz de sombra;
Malena tiene pena de bandoneón.
Tu canción
tiene el frío del ultimo encuentro.
Tu canción
se hace amarga en la sal del recuerdo.
Yo no se
si tu voz es la flor de una pena;
solo se
que al rumor de tus tangos, Malena,
te siento más buena,
más buena que yo.
Tus tangos son criaturas abandonadas
que cruzan sobre el barro del callejón
cuando todas las puertas están cerradas
y ladran los fantasmas de la canción.
Malena canta el tango con voz quebrada;
Malena tiene pena de bandoneón.
