Mi Pueblo

My Hometown

Mi Pueblo

How can I not adore my beloved hometownComo no voy a adorar a mi pueblo querido
If in every memory I have, you're always thereSi en cada recuerdo que tengo siempre estás ahí
When I played soccer with my cousins as a kidCuando de niño jugaba futbol con mis primos
In your streets of history, under April rainsEn tus calles de historia, bajo lluvias de abril

How many mosquitoes quenched their thirst with my desires...Cuantos sancudos calmaron su sed con mis ganas...
To stay out late, by the chalaca shoreDe estar hasta tarde, a orillas de chalaca
Not to mention the wide ford and the uninhabitedYa ni se diga vado ancho y el despoblado
Whole families, always enjoyingFamilias enteras, siempre disfrutando
And coming back soaked in happinessY regresar empapados de felicidad
Is another reason not to forget youEs otro motivo para no olvidarte

How can I not miss the smell of coffeeComo no voy a extrañar el olor a café
That my mom used to make at dawnQue mi mamá preparaba al amanecer
And the touch of cinnamon, a special flavorY el saborcito a canela un toque especial
That many people use in my hometownQue mucha gente utiliza en mi comaltitlán

That little mango with chili and limeEse manguito de coche con chile y limón
That only in town the mangoes are plentifulQue solo en villa los mangos se dan por montón
And that mill that never stops making chocolateY ese molino no deja de dar chocolate
Whisking away, it's a work of artQue bate que bate, es una obra de arte

The park and its traditional folkloric datesEl parque y sus fechas folklóricas tradicionales
Dressed up in splendor, with love and friendshipSe viste de gala, de amor y amistad
I have tattooed in my mind the meeting pointTengo tatuado en mi mente el punto de reunión
Benito Juarez, I carry you in my heartBenito juárez te llevo en mi corazón

Long live all its people, their love and faithQue viva toda su gente, su amor y su fe
Their beloved church: San BartolomeSu iglesia querida: san bartolomé

Chicozapote, avocado, cocoa, and nanceChicozapote, aguacate, cacao y nanche
Their sacred fruits, from my hometownSus frutas sagradas, de mi comaltitlán

You gave me friends like siblings, my first loveMe diste amigos hermanos, mi primer amor
You filled my soul and heart with lifeLlenaste de vida mi alma y mi corazón
You gave color to my world, you gave it flavorLe diste color a mi mundo le diste sabor
That's why I say I love you in this songPor eso te digo te quiero en esta canción

My blessed town, my village of my heartMi pueblo bendito mi villa de mi corazón
Aylelelelele aylelelelelaAylelelelele aylelelelela

I carry them deep in my soul and will never forget them.Los llevo muy dentro de mi alma y nunca los voy a olvidar.
