A lo Megata

El barón Megata, en el año veinte,
se tomaba el buque con rumbo a París,
y allí, entre los tangos y el "dolce far niente",
el japonesito se hizo bailarín.
Flaco y bien plantado. Pinta milonguera.
De empilche a lo duque, aun siendo barón.
Bailó con Pizarro, y una primavera
empacó los discos y volvió a Japón.
Y así llevó el tango
a tierra nipona,
donde gratarola
lo enseñó a bailar.
Cuentan que Megata
no cobraba un mango,
por amor al tango
y por ser bacán.
No sólo enseñaba cortes y quebradas,
también daba clases de hombría de bien;
junaba de noches y de madrugadas,
piloteaba aviones y más de un beguén.
Y tal vez ahora, que está aquí presente,
mientras una Sony nos pasa "Chiqué",
alguien, allá en Tokio, elegantemente,
baile a lo Megata sin saber quién fue.
