The Mexican actor Aguilar starts singing at 1:04 in this old Mexican movie clip. The kid is a child actor from Spain named Joselito. On Sundays there is a Radio show which plays Mexican traditional music and this is one of the songs.
Almost all of our (US) country music is so heavily influenced by traditional Mexican music, I think. You can certainly hear it in all of Marty Robbins' songs. He is one of my favorite singers.
So much beautiful music in the world!

Talk to me about Pedro Infante, Javier Solis, Antonio Aguilar & Los tres Panchos (2 were natives of Mexico)
I listen endlessly on youtube to these tree artists.

I have that video El Caballo Blanco, with Joselito an Antonio Aguilar. It is "todo margaritas".
The Llorona song is a famous song from the istmus of tehuantepec (Oaxaca) it doesn't have an specific author, but many singers have created or copied verses that make this song a tale of love and suffering. very representative of the mexican revolution era, but it is believed that their origins come from the prehispanic era, together with the Adelita, the Cucaracha, and the Marihuana, Llorona became a very popular song, but with the diffrerence that every version says different things.
This is a song so special because it stirs the soul, it's beautiful but sad at the same time, the verse that says oh llorona, when you were exiting the temple, your dress was so beautiful that I mistook you for the virgin reminds me of the beauty of true love.
Todos me dicen el negro, Llorona,

De las arcas de la fuente ¡ay llorona!
