Lyrics

[Letra de "La China"]

[Verso 1]
Dicen que se fue a buscar en el Ombligo de la Luna
Que trece veces veinte iba a durar
Que cuando vean el ave en el nopal
Que griten todos, "¡Ya llegamos a la tierra de Aztlán!"
Que griten todos, "¡Ya llegamos a la tierra de Aztlán!"

[Verso 2]
Solo esperan verse en el lugar
Abrazar el sueño y regresar

[Coro]
Mexhi, mexhi, mexhi, mexhicana
Mexhi, mexhi, mexhi, mexhicana

[Verso 3]
Me enseñó a esperar
Desprendernos de noche

[Coro]
Mexhi, mexhi, mexhi, mexhicana
Mexhi, mexhi, mexhi, mexhicana

[Puente]
Y cada noche, volando estará
Hablar contigo sin emitir palabra
Sin emitir palabra
Sin emitir palabra

Translation

[Lyrics from "La China"]

[Verse 1]
They say he went to look at the Navel of the Moon
That thirteen times twenty would last
That when they see the bird in the nopal
Let everyone shout, "We have reached the land of Aztlán!"
Let everyone shout, "We have reached the land of Aztlán!"

[Verse 2]
They only hope to see each other in the place
Embrace the dream and come back

[Chorus]
Mexhi, mexhi, mexhi, mexhicana
Mexhi, mexhi, mexhi, mexhicana

[Verse 3]
Taught me to wait
Detach at night

[Chorus]
Mexhi, mexhi, mexhi, mexhicana
Mexhi, mexhi, mexhi, mexhicana

[Bridge]
And every night, flying will be
Talk to you without saying a word
Without saying a word
Without saying a word
