Mexico's national anthem

[John Sullivan Hendricks]

Hi Joe,
	There are many versions of the National Anthem in modern nahuatl.  Here is
a portion of what is used in some of the bilingual schools in San Luis
(refrain and the first couple of lines of the first verse).  I have the rest
in my office, plus a version from a bilingual text from Hidalgo.  I'll get
them to you this afternoon.

Asunto: Mexico's national anthem

Nocnihuan,
   I have my hand out again.  A good friend of mine wants to locate the
lyrics of the national anthem of Mexico in Nahuatl.  I have the possibly
faulty recollection of having seen them in print, but I have a verified
memory failure as to where!  Can someone either supply "la letra" or tell
me where to look?  I would appreciate it cenca miac.


Tlazohcamati huel miac,

Joe
