Maleva, que has vuelto al nido
De tu garufa arrepentida
Ya no sos la mantenida
Que deslumbraba en el Pigall
Ya no tenés más berretines
De lujo y milonga
De vicio y placer
Volvés a tu vida primera
Y la milonguera
Vuelve a ser mujer
Tal vez algún día
Oyendo un tango malevo
Arderá en tu alma un deseo
Que matará el corazón
Vos, que siempre fuistes
La reina de los festines
Ya no querés copetines
Ni tangos de bandoneón
Y ahora, de nuevo en tu barrio
Y por todos respetada
Viendo tu vieja encantada
Con tu regeneración
Dentro de tu corazón
Has de pensar que el cariño
Tendió su manto de armiño
Para abrigarte mejor
