| Asi Es Nueva Mejico Lyrics Un canto que traigo muy dentro del alma Lo canto a mi estado – mi tierra natal. De flores dorada mi tierra encantada De lindas mujeres – que no tiene igual. Así es Nuevo Méjico El negro, el hispano, el anglo, el indio Así es Nuevo Méjico El Río del Norte, que es el Río Grande, Así es Nuevo Méjico Tus campos se visten de flores de Mayo Así es Nuevo Méjico Mi tierra encantada de historia bañada |
A Literal English Translation A song that I carry deep in my soul I sing it to my state – my native land. Of golden flowers my enchanted land Of beautiful women – which have no equal. Thus is New Mexico The black, the hispanic, the white, the Indian Thus is New Mexico The River of the North, which is the Rio Grande, Thus is New Mexico Your fields are dressed with May flowers Thus is New Mexico My enchanted land bathed with history Translation Courtesy: Wikipedia |
