Mi porvenir me asusta
Y mi pasado es un error
Me encuentro avergonzado
No sé que hacer, ni como de vivir
Si, para terminar me revoló de vivir
Madre hoy se bebe este hijo consentido
Por tu cariño¡; en él se ha convertido
Tanto cariño, madre, fue fatal
Hoy, un vil engendro del genio del mal¡
Sin saber lo que cuesta la vida
Procuré pasarla divertida
Y así fue que mi alma pervertida
Solo a gozar, reír y disfrutar, se quiso aclimatar
Fue en mi pasado reír y gozar
Y mi presente solo es respetar
Tú, que reías siempre placentera
Al contemplar a tu hijo calavera
Que sin conciencia, sin moral ni honor
Si, supo explotar tu maternal amor
Un hombre, soy, me encuentro arrepentido
Al comprender la vida que he vivido
No, me resigno, madre a claudicar, no
Pero tampoco me atrevo a luchar
El audaz de cínica osadía
Que amo fue de los antros de orgía
Sin tener el vil metal que un día
Te hizo brillar como una flor triunfal
A fuerza de pagar
Un desgraciado que, ¡quiere vivir
Por no tener valor para morir!
