Planta colhe

Jota Growski's song 'Planta colhe' delves into the cyclical nature of life, emphasizing the idea that what we sow, we eventually reap. The lyrics use agricultural metaphors to illustrate this concept, comparing the planting and harvesting of crops to the consequences of our actions and emotions. For instance, 'O arroz que se planta se colhe' (The rice that is planted is harvested) and 'O amor que se planta se colhe' (The love that is planted is harvested) suggest that both tangible and intangible efforts yield results over time.

The song also touches on the inevitability of facing the outcomes of our choices. Lines like 'Solidão que se planta se colhe' (Loneliness that is planted is harvested) and 'Aflição que se planta se colhe' (Affliction that is planted is harvested) highlight the negative consequences of certain actions or states of mind. The recurring theme of reaping what one sows serves as a reminder that our actions, whether good or bad, have repercussions that we must eventually confront.

Additionally, 'Planta colhe' explores the idea of destiny and the passage of time. The lyrics 'Se fugir a estrada te escolhe' (If you run away, the road chooses you) and 'Na garupa do tempo que corre' (On the back of time that runs) suggest that time and fate are inescapable forces that shape our lives. The song's contemplative tone encourages listeners to reflect on their actions and the inevitable cycles of life, urging them to be mindful of what they plant, as it will determine what they harvest in the future.
