La Voz Dormida Lyrics in English Mägo de Oz

Home / Lyrics Translation / Mägo de Oz / La Voz Dormida

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song La Voz Dormida by Mägo de Oz from Spanish to English.

I’m from a site, from a place

From a time that

They call eternity

And to the wind, my home

Where reality

You can change it

If you know how to ask

And you take nothing for granted

What does pain taste like?

Is love eternal?

Is bitterness a woman?

What are dreams made of?

How much does a farewell weigh?

Why is peace mute?

Can betrayal sleep?

Ask yourself!!!

And you’ll see that my voice

Lives in you, I am the sleeping voice

Of those that the Holy Office

Managed to silence

If you want to follow me

We’ll fly over the rainbow

Where sorrows die

And kisses in bloom are born

My voice lives in you

I’ve seen Rome fall

And Egypt die

And Jesus of Nazareth

Expire without knowing

That in his name was going to be born

A sect of power

Traffickers of illusion

Merchants of broken souls

Why is faith deaf?

And is the one that believes blind?

Does a prayer know how to kiss?

How much does celibacy charge?

Is the altar for sale?

Or do you rent it?

For a dictator’s use?

In one Hitler f*cked!!

And you’ll see that my voice

Lives in you, I am the sleeping voice

Of those that the Holy Office

Managed to silence

If you want to follow me

We’ll fly over the rainbow

Where sorrows die

And kisses in bloom are born

My voice lives in you

I’ve gone down to your hell

And I asked your fears

Where do failures live?

And if they accept a tarot

I’ve climbed up to his heaven

His God didn’t receive me

On his right is Franco

And between them there’s a gap

For Pinochet

And you’ll see that I am the sleeping voice

Follow me, my voice lives in you

And you’ll see that my voice

Lives in you, I am the sleeping voice

Of those that the Holy Office

Managed to silence

If you want to follow me

We’ll fly over the rainbow

Where sorrows die

And kisses in bloom are born

And you’ll see that my voice

Lives in you, I am the sleeping voice

Of those that the Holy Office

Managed to silence

If you want to follow me

We’ll fly over the rainbow

Where sorrows die

And kisses in bloom are born

My voice lives in you

I’ve burned in a thousand bonfires

They raped me in Peru

I’ve lived the Holocaust

The Inquisition, Apartheid

Dictatorships, power, pederasty

The devil’s mark is the cross

SONG MEANING

La Voz Dormida introduces a wandering spirit that has seen every age, from the fall of Rome to modern dictatorships, and has survived inquisitions, holocausts, and countless forms of oppression. Speaking from a realm it calls eternity, this voice invites us to turn the wind into our home and reshape reality through questions rather than blind acceptance. With lyrical riddles like “What does pain taste like?” and “Why is faith deaf?”, Mägo de Oz sparks curiosity, rebellion, and imagination all at once.

Beneath the fantasy lies a sharp protest against dogma, fanaticism, and authoritarian power. The song condemns religious hypocrisy, political tyranny, and the historical silencing of free thinkers, yet it remains hopeful. The “dormant voice” reveals that it actually lives inside every listener. By daring to follow it “over the rainbow, where sorrows die and kisses bloom,” we awaken our own power to challenge injustice and transform the world. Turn the volume up, keep asking questions, and let that slumbering voice roar through you.
