Orgullo Mexicano
Los Tigres del Norte
Mexican Pride
From the hills of the hill
I could see the city
And I asked the sky
What I could find there
Poverty overwhelmed me
But I dreamed of succeeding
One day I was meditating
Locked in my shack
Then they saw me leave
With my backpack as luggage
And my steps took me
To the Federal District
There I had a thousand jobs
Working in whatever
My hotel were the platforms
Of the bus station
And one day they saw me leave
Heading to the border
With great excitement
I jumped to the American side
And worked passionately
Through many years
Now in this great nation
I am also a citizen
To anyone who thinks
That I have betrayed my homeland for this
I say with respect
That they are very wrong
My heart still remains
Green, white, and red
I am Mexican, gentlemen
And keep it in mind
Proud of my origin
I carry the nopal on my forehead
Above a real eagle
Devouring a serpent
