¡ay Jalisco No Te Rajes!
La Hija Del Mariachi
Oh Jalisco, Don't Back Down!
Oh, Jalisco, Jalisco, Jalisco,
you have your girlfriend
who is Guadalajara;
beautiful girl,
the rarest pearl
of all Jalisco
is my Guadalajara.
And I like
to listen to the mariachis,
to sing with the soul
their beautiful songs,
to hear how
those big guitars sound,
and to have a tequila
with the brave ones.
Oh, Jalisco, don't back down,
it comes from my soul
to shout with warmth;
to open up my whole chest
to let out this shout:
How beautiful Jalisco is, word of honor!
For women, Jalisco first,
the same in the Highlands
as in the Canyons;
very beautiful women,
lovely faces:
that's how the females are
in Guadalajara.
In Jalisco, love is done right,
because it's dangerous
to love the wrong way;
for a brunette
to shoot a lot of bullets
and under the moon
to sing in Chapala.
Oh, Jalisco, don't back down!
it comes from my soul
to shout with warmth;
to open up my whole chest
to let out this shout:
How beautiful Jalisco is, word of honor!
