Una indita muy chula tenia su anafre en la banqueta,

Su comal,negro y limpio ,freia tamales en la manteca;

Y gorditas de masa ,piloncillo y canela,

Al salir de mi casa campraba un quinto para la escuela

Por la tarde,a las calles ,sacaban mesas ,limpias viejitas,

Nos vendian sus natillas ,arroz con leche en sus cazuelitas,

Rica capirotada ,tecojotes con miel

Y ala noche un atole tan champurrado que ya no hay de él.

Estas cosas hermosas,porque yo asi las vi,

Ya no estan en mi tierra ,ya no estan mas aqui

Hoy en mi méxico es bello, como nunca lo fue,

Pero cuando era niño tania mi méxico un no sé qué...

Empedradas,sus calles eran tranquilas,bellas y quietas;

Los pregones rasgaban el aire limpio:venian cubetas,

Tierra pa' las macetas ;la melcocha la miel,

Chichicuilotes vivos, mezcal en panca y el aguamiel.

Al pasar los soldados salía la gente a mirar inquieta ,

Hasta el tren de mulitas se detenia oyendo la trompeta ,

Las calandrias paraban ,solo en viejito fiel

Que vendia azucarillos improvisaba en verso aquel:

" azucarillos de a medio real y de a real

Para los niños que quieran mercar."

Estas cosas hermosas,porque asi yo las vi,

Yo no estan en mi tierra, yo no estan mas aqui.

Hoy mi méxico es bello,como nunca lo fue,

Pero cuando era niño tenia mi méxico un no se qué...
