La Cosecha Lyrics in English by Lupillo Rivera
Cosecha literally means “harvest,” referring to the gathering of crops after they have grown. In this song, it is used metaphorically in the memorable phrase “la cosecha de mujeres,” giving the word a playful ranchera-style meaning about an abundant supply of women.
“La Cosecha” comes through here as a lively, partly garbled mix of Spanish and English transcription. The clearest Spanish fragments include “que sí” [yes, that’s right], “yo soy” [I am], and “cuando...” [when...], along with a reference to a “canción” [song]. That gives the lyrics a spoken, sing-along quality, as if the singer is insisting on who he is while moving through memories, statements, and music.
Some of the recorded words are too unclear to translate safely, so it would be wrong to invent a full story from them. Still, the repeated sounds of “que sí” and “yo soy” feel blunt and playful, while “cuando...” opens little scenes that never arrive clearly in this transcription. The English fragments such as “all right” and “hello” add to the loose, conversational mood. For an English learner, this is a good example of how a song can rely on rhythm, repetition, and familiar phrases even when every line is not easy to make out.
