lyrics

ÑAM-ÑAM - Luis Palés Matos

Ñam-ñam. En la carne blanca
los dientes negros -ñam-ñam.
Las tijeras de las bocas
sobre los muslos -ñam-ñam.
Van y vienen las quijadas
con sordo ritmo -ñam-ñam.
La feroz noche deglute
bosques y junglas -ñam-ñam.

Ñam-ñam. África mastica
en el silencio -ñam-ñam,
su cena de exploradores
y misioneros -ñam-ñam.
Quien penetró en Tangañica
por vez primera -ñam-ñam;
quien llegó hasta Tembandumba
la gran matriarca -ñam-ñam.

Ñam-ñam. Los fetiches abren
sus bocas negras -ñam-ñam.
En las pupilas del brujo
un solo fulgor -ñam-ñam.
La sangre del sacrificio
embriaga al tótem -ñam-ñam,
y Nigricia es toda dientes
en la tiniebla -ñam-ñam.

Asia sueña su nirvana.
América baila el jazz.
Europa juega y teoriza.
África gruñe:ñam-ñam.
