Mentan los que saben que un malevo muy de agallas y de fama bien sentada por el barrio de Palermo cayó un día taconeando prepotente a un bailongo donde había puntos bravos pa'l . Lo empezaron a mirar con un aire sobrador pero el mozo, sin chistar, a una puerta se arrimó. Los dejó sobrar. Los dejó decir. Y pa' no pelear tuvo que sufrir. Pero la pebeta más bonita, la que estaba más metida en el alma de los tauras, esa noche con la vista lo incitaba a que saliera a darles dique y a jugarse en un tango su cartel. Se cruzó un gran rencor y otro rencor a la luz de un farolito a querosén y un puñal que parte en dos un corazón porque así lo quiso aquella cruel mujer.

Those who know that a malevo of guts and of fame well seated in the neighborhood of Palermo fell one day heeled high heeled to a dancehall where there were brave stitches for the facon. They began to look at him with an air of sobriety but the waiter, without complaining, approached a door. He let them be left over. He let them say. And in order not to fight he had to suffer. But the prettiest the prettiest, the one who was most deeply in the soul of the tauras, that night with her eyes incited him to go out to give them dyke and to gamble in a tango his poster. They crossed a great rancor and another rancor in the light of a kerosene lantern and a dagger that splits a heart in two because that that cruel woman wanted it. Those who saw it say that the handsome they snaked with their bodies and searched eagerly the carelessness of the opponent and in a clearing of the guard sank the Palermo of Palermo up to the handle his facon.
