      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.

                   (Chorus)

      Asi es Nuevo Mejico

      Asi es esta tierra del sol

      De sierras y valles de tierras frutales

      Asi es Nuevo Mejico

                   Second Verse

      El negro, el hispano, el anglo, el indio

      Todos son tus hijos, todos por igual.

      Tus pueblos y aldeas-mi tierra encantada

      De lindas mujeres que no tiene igual.

                   (Chorus)

                   Third Verse

      El Rio del Norte, que es el Rio Grande,

      Sus aguas corrientes fluyen hasta el mar

      Y riegan tus campos

      Mi tierra encantada de lindas mujeres

      Que no tiene igual.

                   (Chorus)

                   Fourth Verse

      Tus campos se visten de flores de Mayo

      De lindos colores

      Que Dios les dotó

      Tus pajaros cantan mi tierra encantada

      Sus trinos de amores

      Al ser celestial.

                   (Chorus)

                   Fifth Verse

      Mi tierra encantada de historia bañada

      Tan linda, tan bella-sin comparación.

      Te rindo homenaje, te rindo cariño

      Soldado valiente-te rinde su amor.

                   (Chorus)
