ROSALÍA’s “Mundo Nuevo” feels like a short, powerful wish cast into the universe. In just a few lines, she confesses a deep weariness with “este mundo por entero” and dreams of renegar – turning her back on everything familiar – to start over somewhere fresh. The repeated plea to “volver de nuevo a habitar” paints a picture of spiritual reboot: a chance to walk into a brand-new reality and finally find “más verdad,” more truth, than the current world can offer.
Though the lyrics are minimal, they burst with emotion. ROSALÍA balances melancholy with hope, inviting us to imagine what a “mundo nuevo” might look like: a place where disappointments are left behind and authenticity reigns. Her voice becomes both a lament and a spark of optimism, reminding listeners that the desire to break free and rediscover genuine meaning is universal—and sometimes, singing it out loud is the first step toward making that new world real.
