Reliquia Lyrics English Translation by ROSALÍA
I’m the one who lost my hands in Jerez and my eyes in Rome
I grew up and learned my sass right there in Barcelona
I lost my tongue in Paris, my time in LA
My heels in Milan, my smile in the UK
But my heart has never been mine, I always give it away, oh
Take a piece of me, keep it for when I’m not around
I’ll be your relic
I am your relic
I’ll be your relic
I lost my faith in DC, and a friend in Bangkok
A bad love in Madrid, and in Mexico the blunt
My bad attitude in Berlin and my art in Granada
In PR courage was born, but heaven was born in Buenos Aires
In Japan I cried and unraveled my eyelashes
And in the Crystal City is where I got my hair chopped off
But hair grows back, and so does purity
Purity is in me and it’s in Marrakech
No, no, I’m not a saint, but I am blessed
But my heart has never been mine, I always give it away, oh
Take a piece of me, keep it for when I’m not around
I’ll be your relic
I am your relic
I’ll be your relic
Fleeing from here, like I fled from Florida
We are dolphins jumping, leaving and entering
The scarlet and bright ring of time
It’s just a moment, it’s just a moment
Eternal and fierce sea, the eternal song
It has no exit, nor does it have my forgiveness
