Valparaiso

Yo no he sabido nunca de historia
Un dia naci alli sencillamente
El viejo puerto vigilo mi infancia
Con rostro de fria indiferencia
Porque no nací pobre y siempre tuve
Un miedo inconcebible a la pobreza.
Yo les quiero contar lo que he observado
Para que nos vayamos conociendo
El habitante encadeno las calles;
La lluvia destiño las escaleras
Y un manto de tristeza fue cubriendo
Los cerros con sus calles y sus niños.
Y vino el temporal y la llovizna
Con su carga de arena y desperdicio,
Por ahi paso la muerte tantas veces,
La muerte que enluto a valparaiso
Y una vez mas el viento como siempre,
Limpio la cara de este puerto herido.
Pero este puerto amarra como el hambre,
No se puede vivir sin conocerlo
No se puede vivir sin que nos falte,
Flamear viento sur los volantines
El pescador de jaivas que entristece
Nuestro paisaje de la costanera.
Yo no he sabido nunca de historia
Un dia naci alli sencillamente
El viejo puerto vigilo mi infancia
Con rostro de fria indiferencia
Porque no nací pobre y siempre tuve
Un miedo inconcebible a la pobreza.
