Yo te extraño
todo el año
y dicen que yo me busco
que me pegué como un caño.
Tú me encierras
o me destierras
y me das salvoconducto
como si anduviera en guerra.
Soy cubano de ultramar,
amanuense de la tierra prometida
y (...) traje para usar
en la tienda de ese moro de Melilla.
Gitana cuando te vi
allá por el Yumurí
dabas la buenaventura
como en el Guadalquivir.
Gitana cuando te vi
allá por Cocoirabí
con mirra y lapislázuli
y me sentía bajo el cielo magrebí.
Tú me mientes
y no lo sientes,
me envenenas la simiente
con tu lengua de serpiente.
Tú me engañas
y no me extraña,
me enmaraña tu patraña
y Habibi me regaña.
Soy cubano de ultramar
y llegué hasta la trastienda de tu alma.
Y abalorios te traje para usar
damajuanas con el juego de la caña.
