Balada del diablo y la muerte


Estaba el diablo mal parado en la esquina de mi barrio,
ah donde dobla el viento y se cruzan los atajos.
Al lado de l estaba la muerte con una botella en la mano,
me miraban de reojo y se rean por lo bajo.
Y yo que esperaba no s a quin del otro lado de la calle del otoo,
una noche de bufanda que me encontr desvelado,
entre dientes o a la muerte, que deca, que deca as:
"Cuntas veces se habr escapado como laucha por tirante,
y esta noche que no cuesta nada, ni siquiera fatigarme!
Podemos llevarnos un cordero con slo cruzar la calle..."
Yo me escond tras la niebla y mir al infinito,
a ver si llegaba se que nunca iba a venir.
Estaba el diablo mal parado en la esquina de mi barrio,
al lado de l estaba la muerte con una botella en la mano.
Y temblando como una hoja me cruc para encararlos,
y les dije: "Me parece que esta vez me dejaron bien plantado".
Les ped fuego y del bolsillo saqu una rama pa' convidarlos,
y bajo un rbol del otoo nos quedamos chamuyando.
Me contaron de sus vidas, sus triunfos sus fracasos,
de que el mundo andaba loco y hasta el cielo fue comprado.
Y ms miedo que esos dos me daba el propio ser humano...
Y yo ya no esperaba a nadie entre las risas del aquelarre,
el diablo y la muerte se me fueron amigando,
ah donde dobla el viento y se cruzan los atajos,
ah donde brinda la vida en la esquina de mi barrio
