Una tarde de otoño, callada
A tu barrio te vieron volver
Barrio bravo, famosa cortada
Que entre guapos te viera perder
Se acercó un viejo amigo y te dijo
Tu viejita esperando se fue
Se ablandó tu guapeza al recuerdo
Y temblando dijiste: Lo sé
La noche, destiñendo los viejos conventillos
Paso por la barriada que en sombras se inundó
Y, recostado al muro, el viejo farolito
Campana de la noche, espiando parpadeo
Lo mismo que una sombra hundida entre otras sombras
Pasaste por la casa del triste callejón
Donde tu pobre vieja, con la esperanza siempre
De verte regresando, quemaba una ilusión
Y una tarde, cumplido, volvías
A tu barrio, tan solo por ver
La casita que tantos recuerdos
Sepultó de tus horas de ayer
Y viviendo el recuerdo de otrora
Sollozando un perdido querer
Te alejaste en la noche y ya nunca
Por tu barrio te vieron volver
