Canción Mixteca - Lila Downs

Que lejos estoy del suelo donde he nacido!

Inmensa nostalgia invade mi pensamiento;

Y al ver me tan solo y triste qual hoja al viento

Quisiera llorar, quisiera morir de sentimiento

Oh tierra del sol!, suspiro por verte

Ahora que lejos yo vivo sin luz, sin amor;

Y al verme tan solo y triste cual hoja al viento

Quisiera llorar, quisiera morir de sentimiento

How far I am from the ground where I was born!

Immense nostalgia invades my thoughts;

And seeing me alone and sad like a leaf in the wind

I would like to cry, I would like to die of feeling

Oh land of the sun! I long to see you

Now that far away I live without light, without love;

And seeing me so alone and sad as a leaf in the wind

I would like to cry, I would like to die of feeling
