Para Pedir Calavera
Paloma de San Vicente
tejida de tule blanco:
somos almas inocentes
almas del Chichiuacuauhco.
Acompaña al Sol poniente
con tu melodioso canto;
ofréndanos con juguetes,
con tambores y silbatos,
con chocolate caliente
y con dulces de amaranto.
Palomita de San Juan
de alas de tejamanil:
somos almas del Mictlán
te venimos a pedir
coloques en nuestro altar
Cempoalxochitl y Jazmín
en un brasero el copal,
en un plato el zacahuil,
en un vasito el mezcal
y en el cielo tu perfi l.

Efraín Tzuda
