Bajo el negro manto del humo
Se abre un valle de la ansiedad
Ya se distingue bloque y concreto
La hierba santa en las cajas de Fa
En este valle de asfalto y plomo
Se come el chile, tortilla y sal
Y en la laguna de Xochimilco
Yo me imagino un águila real
Por la salida de Zaragoza
Por esas casas de muro gris
Entre los patios los tendederos
La ropa nueva de este país
Se va forjando con mano y obra
Piedra con piedra la construcción
De la provincia me traje un sueño
A la laguna ciudad del sol
Diente con diente, sangre con sangre
Valle de plomo, maquina errante
Locos de asfalto, lluvia de polvo
Truenos de lago, misión del soborno
Poco te asusta, poco te gusta
Todo lo tragas y todo lo culpas
Piedra con piedra, dato con dato
Cuál es el código de tu epitafio
Lloro a mi patria querida
Por lo lejos que estoy de ella
Con el alma entristecida
También lloro por aquella
Que por mí se anda perdida
Y yo perdido por ella
Entre las piedras de un lago muerto
Se oye el sollozo de una ciudad
Otra colonia más que se extiende
Otra familia sin sueldo ni hogar
Pero la mata si sigue dando
Cada uno lucha para ganar
Todos gozamos la vida un rato
Transito pasa que viene y va
Diente con diente, sangre con sangre
Nadie responde por estas calles
En la distancia todos los cables
Hacen un nido de sombras viajantes
Y en las esquinas todos los muertos
Las coladeras te roban los sueños
Lluvia de llantos de los millones
De sus encantos y frustraciones
Lloro a mi patria querida
Por lo lejos que estoy de ella
