Échenle ganas amigos
Make him want friends
Es bonito trabajar
It's nice to work
El que trabaja es muy digno
The one who works is very dignified
El flojo no puede hablar
The lazy can't talk
Si ya cruzaron el río
If you've already crossed the river
Es porque saben nadar
It's because they can swim
No hay como México lindo
There's no such thing as mexico cute
Quien me lo puede negar
Who can deny it to me
Siempre será bienvenido
You'll always be welcome
Aquel que busca un hogar
The one looking for a home
Sí un pájaro deja el nido
If a bird leaves the nest
Es por que debe volar
It's because he has to fly
Paisanos un buen consejo
Countrymen a good tip
Yo les quisiera dejar
I'd like to leave you
Sigan jalando parejo
Keep pulling evenly
Y no descuiden su hogar
And don't neglect your home
Ni dejen que algún pendiente
Don't let any earrings
Les mate la voluntad
I'll kill them
En los Estados Unidos
In the United States
Cuantos quisieran estar
How many would like to be
Muchos se cruzan el río
Many cross the river
Otros por tierra y por mar
Others by land and sea
Que tanto no habrán sufrido
How much they won't have suffered
Para su tierra dejar
For your land to leave
Si ya llegaron al baile
If they've already made it to the dance
Hay que empezar a brincar
We have to start jumping
El que es buen gallo te canta
The one who's a good rooster sings to you
Aunque no sea en su corral
Even if it's not in his pen
Y un mexicano no llora
And a Mexican doesn't cry
Aunque se ensarte un nopal
Even if you get a nopal
Paisanos un buen consejo
Countrymen a good tip
Yo les quisiera dejar
I'd like to leave you
Sigan jalando parejo
Keep pulling evenly
Y no descuiden su hogar
And don't neglect your home
Ni dejen que algún pendiente
Don't let any earrings
Les mate la voluntad
I'll kill them
