Camino de Guanajuato
Road to Guanajuato
Ay, ja-ja-ja-jay
Hey, ha-ha-ha-hay
José Alfredo, túmbele con ganas
José Alfredo, play it with passion
No te rajes, guanajuato
Don't give up, Guanajuato
¡Túmbele!
Play on!
No vale nada la vida
Life is worth nothing
La vida no vale nada
Life is not worth anything
Comienza siempre llorando
It always begins with crying
Y así, llorando, se acaba
And so, with crying, it ends
Por eso, es que en este mundo
That's why, in this world
La vida no vale nada (Claro que no)
Life is not worth anything (Of course not)
Bonito León guanajuato
Beautiful León, Guanajuato
Su feria con su jugada
Your fair with its gambling
Allí se apuesta la vida
There they bet their lives
Y se respeta al que gana
And respect the winners
Allá en mi León Guanajuato
Over there in my León Guanajuato
La vida no vale nada
Life is worth nothing
Ah, ah, jajajajajay
Ah, ah, hahahahay
Túmbale, cansados, ahí nomás
Play it, boys, right there
Ay, jaja
Oh, haha
Camino de Guanajuato
Road to Guanajuato
Que pasas por tanto pueblo
That passes through so many towns
No pases por Salamanca
Don't pass through Salamanca
Que allí me hiere el recuerdo
For there, memories hurt me
Vete rodeando veredas
Go around the trails
No pases porque me muero
Don't pass by, for I will die
El Cristo de tu montaña
The Christ of your mountain
Del cerro del Cubilete
On the Cubilete hill
Consuelo de los que sufren

Adoración de la gente
Adoration of the people
El Cristo de tu montaña
The Christ of your mountain
Del cerro del Cubilete
On the Cubilete hill
Camino de Santa Rosa

La Sierra de Guanajuato
The Sierra of Guanajuato
Allí, nomás tras Lomita
Right there, just beyond Lomita
Se ve Dolores Hidalgo
You can see Dolores Hidalgo
Yo allí me quedo, paisanos
There I shall remain, my fellow countrymen
Allí es mi pueblo adorado
There is my beloved town
