Intro 1
Young but very ready because the truth
I always persist to reach greatness
On my mind is always my dad
Greetings to the boss who is with God
And in my mind, what he taught me
I'm still alert doing business
Or: I'm doing business very shrewdly
There in Amsterdam I move it
Or: Over there in Amsterdam, I transport it
And we score goals, you already know the show
Verse 1
Here's a tip for those who know
On the rise we get dessert
A little flan, yes or no, my friend
Come, try it, what do you think?
If you succeed, then I'll celebrate
As they say, "son let's do it"
Here's an ounce of pink cake
Rosa Pastel (lit: Pink Cake) is a slang reference to a drug
So that it hits and tell me how it is
The planes carry the goods
As if they were a supermarket
The old wolf, my godfather Hog
And my greetings to the man, even the hometown
Or: And my regards to the big man in town, all the way to the village
Verse 2
And there in the jungle, of the Amazon
I met a titan, I learned a lot from her
That person, very important
He stayed next to my dad, since he's here
The mind thinks, it's not science
Do things well, business is going a hundred
Or: Do things right, and the business will go well
And with patience, with a lot of strength
I already detonated them, I already crowned them
Or: We offloaded the shipment, and moved it successfully
Chorus 2
Young but very ready because the truth
I always persist to reach greatness
On my mind is always my dad
Greetings to the boss who is with God
And in my mind, what he taught me
I'm still alert doing business
There in Amsterdam I move it
And we score goals, you already know the show

Truchas — Alert / Sharp

Truchas literally translates to 'trouts', but in Mexican slang it is a highly popular way to describe someone who is 'alert', 'sharp', or 'on their toes'.

In the song, Peso Pluma sings "Sigo bien truchas haciendo negocios" (I stay very sharp doing business) to highlight his street smarts and focus. Mastering colorful local slang like this is a fantastic way to sound much more natural and expressive when speaking Spanish.

In "Rosa Pastel," Mexican singer Peso Pluma teams up with Jasiel Nuñez for a fast-paced corrido tumbado full of ambition, hustling, and street pride. The narrator makes it clear right away that youth does not equal weakness: "De poco edad, pero bien listo" ("Young in age, but very clever"). He credits his late father with shaping his mindset, giving a shout-out to "el boss que está junto a Dios" ("the boss who is next to God") and using those early lessons to expand his operations across the globe, claiming "Allá por Ámsterdam la muevo yo" ("Over in Amsterdam is where I move it"). To say he stays alert, he uses the classic Mexican slang "bien truchas" (literally "like a trout," meaning sharp and watchful).

The track is packed with colorful regional expressions and vivid smuggler imagery. When business goes well, the lyrics switch to Colombian slang like "mi parcera" ("my friend" or "my partner") and the encouraging push "mijo hágale pues" ("son, go ahead and do it"). The title itself comes to life when offering "una onza de Rosa Pastel" ("an ounce of Pastel Pink"), pairing high-stakes trade with casual party vibes. To describe the sheer scale of the operation, the track throws out a wild image: small planes delivering cargo "como si fueran un supermercado" ("as if they were a supermarket"). It wraps mentors from the Amazon rainforest alongside street wisdom, sticking to one simple rule: work hard, stay patient, and secure the win.
