ROSALIA Lyrics

Reliquia” by ROSALÍA is a poetic, introspective song about identity, loss, and transformation through life’s journeys, the lyrics trace her emotional and spiritual evolution across different cities, each representing something she’s lost or gained. Despite giving away pieces of herself, she embraces being a “relic” a lasting symbol of love, experience, and resilience, blessed yet imperfect, forever marked by the places and people she’s encountered.

ROSALIA - Reliquia Lyrics

Verse 1
Me, who lost my hands in Jerez and my eyes in Rome
I grew up, and I learned shamelessness somewhere around Barcelona
I lost my tongue in Paris, my time in LA
My heels in Milan, my smile in the UK

Chorus
But my heart has never been mine, I always give it away, oh
Take a piece of me, keep it for when I'm gone
I'll be your relic

Post-Chorus
I'm your relic
I'll be your relic

Verse 2
I lost faith in DC, and a friend in Bangkok
A bad love in Madrid, and in Mexico, the blunt
My bad temper in Bеrlin and my art in Granada
In Puerto Rico, courage was born, but heavеn was born in Buenos Aires
In Japan, I cried, and my eyelashes unraveled
And in the City of Crystal, that's where I got my hair cut off
But hair grows back, and purity too
Purity is in me and it's in Marrakech
No, no, I'm not a saint, but I'm blessed

Chorus
But my heart has never been mine, I always give it away, oh
Take a piece of me, keep it for when I'm gone
I'll be your relic

Post-Chorus
I'm your relic
I'll be your relic

Bridge
Running away from here, like I ran from Florida
We are dolphins jumping, going in and out
Of the scarlet and shining hoop of time
It's only a moment, it's only a moment
Eternal and fierce sea, the eternal song
It has neither an exit nor my forgiveness
