Como tose la obrerita por la noche
Tose y sufre por el cruel presentimiento
De su vida que se extingue, y el tormento
No abandona a su tierno corazón
La obrerita juguetona, pizpireta
La que diera a su casita la alegría
La que vive largas horas de agonía
Porque sabe que a su mal no hay salvación
Pasa un hombre quien pregona
Cotorrita de la suerte
Augura la vida o muerte!
Quieren la suerte probar?
La obrerita se resiste
Por la duda temerosa
Y un papel de color rosa
La cotorra va a sacar
Al leerlo su mirada se animaba
Y temblando ante la dicha prometida
Tan alegre leyó: Un novio, larga vida
Y un sollozo en su garganta reprimió
Desde entonces deslizáronse sus días
Esperando al bien amado ansiosamente
Y la tarde en que moría tristemente
Pregunto a su mamita: No llego?
