Não adianta fechar os olhos
fingindo ir embora
se a sua vista não vai prassar da rua da Aurora.
Tudo fica bem mais fácil de engolir
quando a fome aflora
mendigando na ponta do ferro
a tua esmola.
Esmola do cego da rua da Guia
esmola pra todos os aflitos
esmola de preto, branco, rosa esmola de pobre ou rico.
Esmola na rua do Hospício
esmora aos doidos varridos esmola a cada minuto na rua da Hora
os nossos mendigos.
Me dê uma esmola aí...
