Botija linda
del barrio pobre
hoy los bacanes
llorando están,
y las comadres,
a su manera,
tu triste historia
relatarán.
Botija linda,
porque te fuiste
los bandoneones
no cantan más.
Y los copleros
del barrio triste
con tus desdichas
versos harán.
Botija, si en el barrio ninguno presentía
que tan calladamente nos fueras a dejar.
Hoy tiene el conventillo la gris melancolía
de las cosas que fueron y que no volverán.
Por eso los muchachos comentan tus desvíos
y las viejas del barrio tu desesperación.
Y tienen tus amigos, del rante conventillo,
una pena en el alma y una interrogación.
Todos te extrañan
y los pebetes
preguntan siempre
adónde andás.
Tu pobre vieja
dice llorando
que tal vez pronto
retornarás.
Pero tu viejo,
que no ha llorado
aunque la pena
lo doblegó,
si le preguntan
por su botija,
él les contesta
que se murió.
