Puente Alsina, puente viejo,
viendo que estás liquidado
quiero atar a mi encordado
tu pasao y mi cantar,
recordando tus hazañas
cuando golpeaba en tu trocha
el tacón de la morocha
al volver de trabajar.
Ya no serás
el que guapeó en el "ochenta",
ni jamás como en las mentas
la pedana de la cuenta
que la ocasión canceló.
Ya no serás
el que en las brumas del río
vio chispear el brillo frío
de las dagas que en el río
concitaba la traición.
Se va el barrio que ha crecido
junto a tus viejos horcones,
con la fe de los varones
que labró tu tradición.
Se va el soplo del misterio
que en tus tablones se acuna
bajo la luz de la luna
farolito de cartón.
Ya no serás
aquel rincón perdulario
que amarrao a los prontuarios
del Riachuelo legendario
su tradición consagró.
Sólo serás
así pintao y luciente
más bacán y resistente,
pero serás cualquier puente
sin pasao, ni emoción.
