El Otro México(original) |
| No me critiquen por que vivo |
| Al otro lado |
| No soy un desarraigado |
| Vine por necesidad |
| Ya muchos años que me vine de mojado |
| Mis costumbres no han cambiado |
| Ni mi nacionalidad |
| Soy como tantos |
| Otros muchos mexicanos |
| Que la vida nos ganamos |
| Trabajando bajo el sol |
| Reconocidos como buenos trabajadores |
| Que hasta los mismos patrones |
| Nos hablan en español |
| Cuando han sabido que |
| Un doctor o un ingeniero |
| Se han cruzado de braseros |
| Por que quiera progresar |
| O que un cacique |
| Deje tierras y ganado |
| Por cruzar el río bravo |
| Eso nunca lo verán |
| El otro México que |
| Aquí hemos construido |
| En este suelo que ha sido |
| Territorio nacional |
| Es el esfuerzo de todos |
| Nuestros hermanos |
| Y latinoamericanos |
| Que han sabido progresar |
| Mientras los ricos |
| Se van hacia el extranjero |
| Para esconder su dinero |
| Y por Europa pasear |
| Los campesinos que venimos |
| De mojados |
| Casi todo se lo enviamos |
| A los que quedan alla |
| Cuando han sabido que |
| Un doctor o un ingeniero |
| Se han cruzado de braseros |
| Por que quiera progresar |
| O que un cacique |
| Deje tierras y ganado |
| Por cruzar el rio bravo |
| Eso nunca lo veran |
| (translation) |
| Don't criticize me because I live |
| To the other side |
| I am not a rootless |
| I came out of necessity |
| It's been many years since I came from wet |
| My customs have not changed |
| nor my nationality |
| I am like so many |
| Many other Mexicans |
| That life we earn |
| working under the sun |
| Recognized as good workers |
| That even the same patterns |
| They speak to us in Spanish |
| When they know that |
| A doctor or an engineer |
| They have crossed braziers |
| Why do you want to progress? |
| Or that a cacique |
| Leave land and cattle |
| For crossing the brave river |
| They will never see that |
| The other Mexico that |
| Here we have built |
| On this ground that has been |
| National territory |
| It is everyone's effort |
| Our brothers |
| and Latin Americans |
| who have been able to progress |
| While the rich |
| They go abroad |
| to hide your money |
| And walk through Europe |
| The peasants who come |
| of wet |
| Almost everything we send it to you |
| To those who remain there |
| When they know that |
| A doctor or an engineer |
| They have crossed braziers |
| Why do you want to progress? |
| Or that a cacique |
| Leave land and cattle |
| For crossing the brave river |
| They will never see that |
