Ojos Tapatios

Lyrics

No hay ojos mís lindos
En la tierra mía
Que los negros ojos
De una tapatía

Miradas que matan
Ardientes pupilas
Sombra cuando duerme
Luz cuando nos miran

En noche de luna
Perfume de azahares;
En el cielo estrellas
Y tibios los aires

Y tras de la reja
Cubierta de flores
La novia que espera
Temblando de amores

Y al ver esos ojos
Que inquietos esperan
Apagan sus luces
Las blancas estrellas

Los aires esparcen
Aromas mejores
Y todas las aves
Suspiran de amor

Por una mirada
De tan lindos ojos
Estrellas y flores
Padecen enojos

Los aires suspiran
El cielo se apaga
Y en el alma vaga
La queja de amor

Alejandro Fernandez
Alejandro Fernández (born April 24, 1971) is a popular Latin Grammy-winning Mexican singer nicknamed as "El Potrillo" ("The Little colt") by the media and his fans.

Alejandro originally specialized in traditional, earthy forms of Mexican folk and country music, such as mariachi and ranchera. However, his more recent work has focused on mainstream pop music. He is the son of Vicente Fernández, also a popular Mexican country singer. His nickname "El Potro" (The Colt) was given to him by the media and his fans because of his being the son of Vicente, who is nicknamed "El Gran Garañón" (the stallion).

Born in Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico, he trained as an architect but turned to singing in 1991, encouraged by his father. A year later, he released his first album, titled Alejandro Fernández. Since then, he has recorded 13 albums and sold a reported 15 million records, working with producers such as Emilio Estefan and Kike Santander. Fernández also has portrayed the lead role in Zapata: The Dream of a Hero, a 2003 movie about the Mexican revolutionary hero Emiliano Zapata by filmmaker Alfonso Arau, which proved to be one of the greatest disappointments in the Nuevo Cine Mexicano era, spending 7 million dollars in production and publicity but faring poorly at the box office.

Jorge Negrete
Jorge Alberto Negrete Moreno (November 30, 1911 – December 5, 1953) is considered one of the most popular Mexican singers and actors of all time.

Negrete was born in Guanajuato where he was raised together with his brother and three sisters: David, Consuelo, Emilia and Teresa, and also lived in San Luis Potosí. He graduated with the rank of sub-lieutenant from El Colegio Militar, Mexico's military academy.

Handsome, with a very strong will and a trained, fascinating voice, he is still a top idol in Mexico and Latin America, more than 50 years after his death. His recording of México Lindo y Querido (Beautiful and Beloved México), his country's unofficial anthem, is the best known recording of the song. His career is often compared to that of Pedro Infante, the best known and most popular Mexican actor of the time. The public rivalry didn't carry over to their private lives, as they were close friends until Negrete's death.
