Por las noches, cara sucia
de angelito con hollín
vende rosas en las mesas
del boliche de Bachín
si la luna brilla
sobre la parrilla
come luna y pan de hollín
Cada día en su tristeza
que no quiere amanecer
lo madruga un seis de enero
con la estrella del revés
y tres reyes magos
roban sus zapatos
uno izquierdo y el otro también
Chiquilín, dame un ramo de voz
así salgo a vender
mis vergüenzas en flor
baleame con tres rosas
que duelan, a cuenta
del hambre que no te entendí
Chiquilín...
Cuando el sol pone a los pibes
delantales de aprender
él aprende cuanto cero
le quedaba por saber
y a su madre mira
yira que te yira
pero no la quiere ver
Cada aurora, en la basura
con un pan y un tallarín
se fabrica un barrilete
para irse y sigue aquí
es un hombre extraño
niño de mil años
que por dentro
le enreda el piolín
