La Cosita", the little thing. A Cuban son, like most Cuban sons this has a double meaning and this song leaves the song to be interpreted by the listener;
My little one,
look I want that little thing,
By looking at you I lose myself,
Your beautiful body..
Little woman of my life, look, I want that little thing, looking at you I go crazy, your beautiful body takes away my sleep, come calm my sorrows, come calm my thirst for this love. Oh, oh, oh! Look, you have me crazy, such a good woman, pretty woman, I'm dying little by little because I want that little thing, come calm my sorrows, come calm my thirst for this love, little woman of my life, I want from you what tastes like honey. Give me a kiss, mommy. Oh! I'm dying for that. Don't sell it to me for a lot, I'll buy it by weight. Thinking of you every night I pray. What I want, my love, is for you to give me a kiss. What I want, my love, is for you to give me a kiss. What I want, mommy, is for you to give me a kiss. Fill it with fruit, jam and cheese. Oh! All night long I pray. That's what I want for that little thing. Hey, look, I'm going crazy for that. Don't deny it to me anymore and calm my excesses. Thinking of you I'm eating my brains out. What I want, my love, is for you to give me a kiss.
Mujercita de mi vida, mira yo quiero esa cosita,
mirándote me disloco, tu cuerpo hermoso el sueño me quita,
ven a calmar mis pesares, ven a calmar de este amor mi sed.
¡Ay, ay, ay!
Mira que me tienes loco, mujer tan buena, mujer bonita,
me voy muriendo de a poco porque yo quiero esa cosita,
ven a calmar mis pesares, ven a calmar de este amor mi sed,
mujercita de mi vida, quiero de tí lo que sabe a miel.
Que me des un beso, mamita.
¡Ay!, me estoy muriendo por eso.
No me lo vendas caro te lo compro a peso.
Pensando en tí todas las noches yo rezo.
Yo lo que quiero vida mía, es que me des un beso.
Yo lo que quiero vida mía es que me des un beso.
Lo que quiero, mamacita, es que me des un beso.
Rellénalo con fruta, mermelada y queso.
¡Ay!, toda la noche yo rezo.
Por tener esa cosita lo que quiero es eso.
Oye, que mira, me vuelvo loco por eso.
No me lo niegues más y calma mis excesos.
Pensando en tí me estoy comiendo los sesos.
Yo lo que quiero, vida mía, es que me des un beso.
