(Hablado)
Quiero a la sombra de un ala contar este cuento en flor,
la niña de guatemala, la que se murio de amor.
Eran de lirios los ramos y las orlas de reseda,
y de jazmin la enterramos en una caja de seda.
Ella dio al desmemoriado una almohadilla de olor
el volvio, volvio casado, ella se murio de amor.
Iban cargandola en andas, obispos y embajadores
detras iba el pueblo en tanda, todo cargado de flores.
Ay...
Ella por volverlo a ver, salio a verlo al mirador
el volvio con su mujer, ella se murio de amor.
Como de bronce candente, al beso de despedida
era su frente, la frente que mas he amado en la vida.
Se entro de tarde en el rio, la saco muerta el doctor
dicen que murio de frio, yo se que murio de amor.
Alla en la boveda helada, la pusieron en dos bancos
bese su mano afilada, bese sus zapatos blancos.
Callado al obscurecer, me llamo el enterrador
nunca mas he vuelto a ver, a la que murio de amor
Ay....
