Postal de la habana


Desde el balcn
que daba al malecn
veia cada maana
los peces de La Habana
bailando con la historia un guaguancn.
Y en el hotel
el mundo iba al revs,
y el siglo en camiseta
regaba las macetas,
y en cada bicicleta caben tres.
Y la noche insensata
con sus ojos de fuego
negros, como dos perlas de carbn,
provocandome al juego
tropical y pirata
de la gata mulata y el ratn.
Y en vez de las respuestas que buscaba
un cicln de preguntas me esperaba,
y en el desvan del alma de la gente,
dormia Silvio soando con serpientes.
Y a las barbas de la revolucin
les salian mas canas cada dia,
y el maana era un nio que mentia,
y todos se llamaban Robinsn.
Y el cuerpo al sngoro cosongo.
Songo de Chang, songo de Marti.
Que no pare el sngoro cosongo.
Con el corazn yoruba lucumi.
Que siga el sngoro cosongo!
Sigueme, sigueme.
Me pone negro el sngoro cosongo.
Para que lo baile el negro Milans.
Mire ust.
Desde el balcn
la calle era un danzn
y el cielo una acuarela
manchada por las velas
de las tres carabelas de Coln.
Y en este hotel toc Beny Mor
la noche que Al Capone
perdi los pantalones
a la ruleta rusa con Fidel.
Y las viejas banderas
llamando a las trincheras
desde el mural ail de la pared
donde una mano ha escrito
"Hayde, te necesito"
sobre la boina mitica del Che.
Y nos bebimos todas las cervezas,
y besamos a todas las cubanas,
y el chulo de las musas de La Habana
llevaba una manzana en la cabeza.
Y el Caribe embestia contra el hotel,
y demasiados sueos dependian
de la buena o la mala punteria
que tuviera aquel dia Guillermo Tell.
Mamita al sngoro cosongo.
Va pa Varadero, viene de Madrid.
Que no se duerma el sngoro cosongo.
Sol Portocarrero, luna de marfil.
Que siga el sngoro cosongo.
Sigueme, sigueme.
Para gozar el sngoro cosongo.
Para mi compadre Pablo Milans.
Pablito, el sngoro cosongo.
Sirvase con sal del mar de las Antillas.
Abrazadito al sngoro cosongo.
Pa' que la mulata mueva la rodilla.
Bendito sngoro cosongo.
Songo de Cotan, songo de Compay.
Con un mojito el sngoro cosongo.
Nunca se la aprende el gringo Hemingway.
Qu rico el sngoro cosongo.
Yo soy un hombre sincero,
sincero y sin infinito,
y antes de morirme quiero
vivir la vida un poquito.
Si, seor, cmo no. Asucar, sngoro cosongo.
Manos arriba, alto, quin vive?.
Dale candela al sngoro cosongo.
Amo esta isla, soy del Caribe.
Me sube el sngoro cosongo.
Un chicharrero gordo, un flaco de Jan.
Carajo el sngoro cosongo.
Songo de Lezama, songo de Guilln.
Fandango sngoro cosongo.
Sigueme, sigueme.
