Lyrics: Guadalajara 

Guadalajara, Guadalajara
Guadalajara, Guadalajara
Tienes el alma de provinciana
Hueles a limpio a rosa temprana
Ave de jara fresca del rio
Son mil palomos to case rio
Guadalajara, Guadalajara
Sabes a pura tierra mojada
Ay, ja, ja, ay, ja, ja
Aj, ja, ja, ay, ja, ja
Aj colomitos lejanos aj ojitos
De agua hermanos
Ay colomitos inolvidables
Inolvidables como las tardes
En que la lluvia, des de la loma, ir
Nos hacia, hasta Zapopam
Ay misermano ay-ja-ja Mexicano
Ay colomitos inolvidables
Inolvidables como las tardes
En que la lluvia, des de la loma, ir
Nos hacia, hasta Zapopam
Guadalajara, Guadalajara
Guadalajara, Guadalajara
Guadalajara, Guadalajara
