México Lindo y Querido
My Beautiful and Beloved Mexico
Voz de la guitarra mía
Voice of my guitar
Al despertar la mañana
Upon waking in the morning
Quiere cantar su alegría
It wants to sing its joy
A mi tierra mexicana
To my Mexican homeland
Yo le canto a tus volcanes
I sing to your volcanoes
A tus praderas y flores
To your prairies and flowers
Que son como talismanes
Which are like talismans
Del amor de mis amores
Of the love of my loves
México Lindo y Querido
My Beautiful and Beloved Mexico
Si muero lejos de ti
If I die far from you
Que digan que estoy dormido
Let them say that I am sleeping
Y que me traigan aquí
And that they should bring me here
Que digan que estoy dormido
Let them say that I am sleeping
Y que me traigan aquí
And that they should bring me here
México Lindo y Querido
My Beautiful and Beloved Mexico
Si muero lejos de ti
If I die far from you
Que me entierren en la sierra
Let them bury me in the mountains
Al pie de los magueyales
At the foot of the maguey fields
Y que me cubra esta tierra
And let this earth cover me
Que es cuna de hombres cabales
Which is the cradle of upright men
Voz de la guitarra mía
Voice of my guitar
Al despertar la mañana
Upon waking in the morning
Quiere cantar su alegría
It wants to sing its joy
A mi tierra mexicana
To my Mexican homeland
México Lindo y Querido
My Beautiful and Beloved Mexico
Si muero lejos de ti
If I die far from you
Que digan que estoy dormido
Let them say that I am sleeping
Y que me traigan aquí
And that they should bring me here
Que digan que estoy dormido
Let them say that I am sleeping
Y que me traigan aquí
And that they should bring me here
México Lindo y Querido
My Beautiful and Beloved Mexico
Si muero lejos de ti
If I die far from you
