México en la piel [English translation]

Like a longing stare made in Sonora

Dressed with the sea of Cozumel

With the color of the sun throughout the whole body

This is how you carry Mexico in your skin

Like a good tequila of this earth

Or like a friend from Yucatán

And in Aguascalientes undone

Or a wool knit in Teotitlán

This is how Mexico feels, this is how you feel Mexico

Like lips upon your skin

Like so Mexico wraps you up,

this is how Mexico tastes

And this is how you carry Mexico in your skin

Like watching the Sierra of Chihuahua

Or watching artisans in San Miguel

To climb the hill of la silla

This is how you carry Mexico in your skin

Like accompanying yourself with mariachi

To make that song weep

In the south they play with marimba

And in the north with accordion

This is how Mexico feels, this is how you feel Mexico

Like lips upon your skin

Like so Mexico wraps you up,

this is how Mexico tastes

And this is how you carry Mexico in your skin

Like a good sarape from Saltillo

Like a homecoming in Veracruz

With the excitement of a kiss face to face

This is how you carry Mexico in your skin

Like contemplating the Caribbean sea

Discovering beautiful dawn

Having the fresh breeze of Morelia

The moon caressing a woman

This is how Mexico feels, this is how you feel Mexico

Like lips upon your skin

Like so Mexico wraps you up,

this is how Mexico tastes

And this is how you carry Mexico in your skin
