Numero 7 Lyrics in English Junior H

Home / Lyrics translation / Junior H / Numero 7

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Numero 7 by Junior H from Spanish to English.

It's not the same thing to call the lion as to see it arrive

His gaze is quite imposing, you see evil in him

It's the talent his father always gave him

He bagged weed and cut poppies

To sell the sweets for the chacas

Then I cooked the laundry to roll up the painting

My boss was the one who gave plants

The plots 'were slashed to make medicine

From there I moved forward and blessings began to come

I jumped over that puddle and my family began to prosper

That old man went ahead, heaven watches over me

The inheritance is active, I'm still the one in charge

Now I suck my life away

And money trickles through my whole fucking body

I go for everything and I want more

Eagle and diver, always like the bone

Always on the mark like that old man taught me

Pure for dela

There goes number seven

And the older seven, old, pure Junior H, uah

I don't forget my shortcomings, It was happiness

How can I forget Francisco and my cousin Adrián

The freight keeps moving, the envy never stops

Greenhouses and land, they know how to move money

A seven on his chest, black diamonds on his chest goes

That's the line, it's still alive, it represents it

Very powerful and proud, more than happy

Make way because the Seven is coming to the party

To sell the sweets for the chacas

Then I cooked the laundry to roll up the painting

My boss was the one who gave plants

The plots 'were slashed to make medicine

Now I suck my life away

And money trickles through my whole fucking body

I go for everything and I want more

Eagle and diver, always like the bone

Firm as that old man taught me

Always pure pa' dela

encostalaba — he would bag

Encostalaba comes from the verb encostalar, which means "to bag" or "to put into sacks". It's an interesting word because it's not commonly used in everyday conversation, making it stand out.

In the context of the song, it refers to the protagonist's father bagging "mota" (slang for marijuana) and cutting "amapola" (poppy, used for opium/heroin production). This word subtly hints at the illicit activities that were part of the family's past, providing a glimpse into the song's narrative about overcoming hardship and achieving prosperity.

“Número 7” immerses us in the world of a young heir who has turned his father’s illicit talents into an empire. With vivid street slang, Junior H paints the rise from encostalaba mota (bagging weed) and cortaba la amapola (harvesting poppies) to crossing the border, multiplying greenhouses, and watching money “drip down his whole body.” The number 7 stitched in diamonds across his chest becomes a badge of power, family pride, and survival in a ruthless trade.

Beneath the swagger, the lyrics reveal loyalty to the viejón who taught him everything, gratitude for relatives like Francisco and Adrián, and an unbreakable resolve to keep pushing even as envy circles. It is equal parts cautionary tale and victory lap: a celebration of hustle, legacy, and identity from the Mexican corrido tradition, served with Junior H’s signature raw, melodic twist.
