                            - Moço, me paga um pão?
                              Se não, eu morro, morro de fome.
                            - Vai tomar banho, moleque.

                              atirou-se nas frias águas
                              e qual um peixe nadou, nadou, nadou.
                              Cortou as ondas, esqueceu o mundo,
                              a miséria, esqueceu a fome
                              e esqueceu que estava fraco, de fome...

                              No bar,
                              o homem atirava um doce no lixo-luxo,
                              por não gostar do recheio.

                               No mar,
                               Um negrinho morria a
