Ay Jalisco, Jalisco, Jalisco, Tú tienes tu novia que es Guadalajara. Muchacha bonita, la perla más rara De todo Jalisco es mi Guadalajara. Y me gusta escuchar los mariachis, Cantar con el alma sus lindas canciones. Oír como suenan esos guitarrones Y echarme un tequila con los valentones. ¡Ay Jalisco ... no te rajes! Me sale del alma gritar con calor, Abrir todo el pecho pa 'echar este grito: Que lindo es Jalisco, palabra de honor. Pa 'mujeres Jalisco primero, Lo mismo en los altos que allá en la cañada. Mujeres muy lindas, rechulas de cara, Así son las hembras de Guadalajara. En Jalisco se quiere a la buena, Porque es peligroso querer a la mala. Por una morena echar mucha bala Y bajo la luna cantar en Chapala. ¡Ay Jalisco ... no te rajes! Me sale del alma gritar con calor, Abrir todo el pecho pa 'echar este grito: Que lindo es Jalisco, palabra de honor.	Ay, Jalisco, Jalisco, Jalisco, you have your bride who is Guadalajara. Beautiful girl, the most precious pearl of all Jalisco is my Guadalajara. And I like to listen to the mariachis , who sing their beautiful songs with their hearts. Listen to the sound of their guitars and enjoy a tequila with the cocky people. Ay, Jalisco, don't troll! From the bottom of my soul I scream with fervor, stretching my chest wide for this call: How beautiful Jalisco is, word of honor. The women of Jalisco are the best, both in the mountains and on the plains. Gorgeous women who look great, that's Guadalajara women. In Jalisco, good is loved because it is dangerous to love bad. A brunette brings as many joys as singing under the moon in Chapala . Ay, Jalisco, don't troll! From the bottom of my soul I scream with fervor, stretching my chest wide for this call: How beautiful Jalisco is, word of honor.
