México En La Piel
Mariachi Vargas de Tecalitlán
Mexico In The Skin
Like a gaze made in Sonora
Dressed with the sea of Cozumel
With the color of the sun all over the body
That's how Mexico is carried in the skin.
Like the good tequila of this land
Or like a friend from Yucatan
And in Aguascalientes, deshilados
Or a wool woven in Teotitlan.
That's how Mexico feels, that's how Mexico feels,
Just like some lips on the skin
That's how Mexico envelops you, that's how Mexico tastes to you
And that's how Mexico is carried in the skin.
Like seeing the Sierra of Chihuahua
Or craftsmanship in San Miguel
Climbing the Cerro de la Silla
That's how Mexico is carried in the skin.
Like accompanying yourself with mariachi
To make that song cry
That in the south is played with marimba
And in the north with accordion.
That's how Mexico feels, that's how Mexico feels,
Just like some lips on the skin
That's how Mexico envelops you, that's how Mexico tastes to you
And that's how Mexico is carried in the skin.
Like a good sarape from Saltillo
Like a welcome in Veracruz
With the emotion of a kiss face to face
That's how Mexico is carried in the skin.
Like contemplating the Caribbean Sea
Discovering a beautiful sunrise
Feeling the fresh breeze of Morelia
The moon caressing a woman.
That's how Mexico feels, that's how Mexico feels,
Just like some lips on the skin
That's how Mexico envelops you, that's how Mexico tastes to you
And that's how Mexico is carried in the skin.
