LOS "COLFOS"

Ell cielo es plomo; del cielo llueve
callada Y lenta la blanca nieve,
y es ell bramido del huracan
eco de alondra que estan sin nidos,
amarga queja de desvalidos:
de pobres "golfos'' que piden PAM.
FL cielo es plomo; blanca mortaja
fnje Ia nieve que lenta baja,
y al contemplate con triste afan
tiemblan y lloran los pequenuelos
que nunca hallaron dulces ~consuelos...
los pobres 'golfos' que piden pan.....
En- eI palacio que luce y brilla,
Y en- la burguesa mansion sencilIa,
grandes f%estines los suenos dan:
y afuera, oyendo las risas locas,
hambrientOS mueStran sus anchas 10Cas
los pobres "golfos'' que piden PAM.
Principles, damas, grandes scnores,
que ten6is joyas, traies y flores,
que, con los amos p~ereceran,
cuando Ia nieVe hnja mortajas
de 10 que sobre. dad las migajas
a los "golflIos" faltos de pam.
