Europa Lyrics in English Mónica Naranjo

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Europa by Mónica Naranjo from Spanish to English.
Verse 1
I was the sun’s golden rose
Rain of wine, bubble of love
And my palace was youth
When I sang, you dreamed
Chorus 1
I had glory
I had your devotion
And I felt loved
Spoiled by life
Blind with delirious illusion
Aria of love
While they clap behind the curtain
At dusk the old God dies
Aria of love
A chimera, a song
That the victory is great
And Europe great
Great destiny is today
Verse 2
I was the diva of that nation
My voice filled great theaters
And my palace, so beautiful yesterday
Later it was of loneliness and marble
Chorus 2
The decadence
The final solution
Among a thousand flags, crosses and skulls
Symbols of chimeras
I lost you
Aria of love
While they clap behind the curtain
At sunset you die, old Europe
Alone, crazy and sunk
Chorus 3
I hear the bombs
Eagles of terror
And I dream in the trash
That your figure returns
And I take refuge in alcohol
Aria of love
A chimera, a song
That the defeat is great
And Europe great
Outro
Great at last, you and I

SONG MEANING

Europa is a dramatic power-ballad where Mónica Naranjo turns the continent itself into a once-adored opera diva. In the beginning, she recalls her golden days: shimmering palaces, overflowing theaters, and the sweet euphoria of youth. Her voice stood for art, passion, and unity, and the applause behind the curtain felt like the heartbeat of an entire nation. Yet beneath this glitter lies a warning: glory can be fragile.

As the song unfolds, the diva’s bright empire crumbles. Symbols of war replace roses and champagne, bombs drown out ovations, and old ideals collapse under their own weight. The narrator’s refuge becomes alcohol, her aria a mourning cry for a continent that has lost its way. Europa is both a love letter and a lament, reminding us that the heights of cultural brilliance and the depths of ruin can be just one tragic encore apart.
