Durango, Durango

I am from the land of scorpions
I am from Durango, word of honor
Where men are formal men
And their women are pure heart

I was born in Tierra Blanca near Analco
I learned as a child to sing
Cerro de los Remedios, Cerro del Mercado
Only when I'm dead will I be able to forget them

Durango, Durango, my beloved land
Quiet and tranquil colonial city
I would give my life to defend you
And wherever I go, I will remember you

Here in this sacred and blessed land
Pancho Villa, immortal leader, was born
And among his golden Adelitas singing
They saw him pass through all the streets

Paseo Las Moreras and Las Alamedas
Where I used to go to talk with my dark-skinned girl
I can't forget her like I never forget
The Guadalupana in her Tepeyac

Durango, Durango, my beloved land
Quiet and tranquil colonial city
I would give my life to defend you
And wherever I go, I will remember you
