The page contains the lyrics and English translation of the song "ritualitos" by Marta Gomez.

Lyrics

Musiquita que se me sale del alma a mí
Con palabras que alguien me dicta desde otra voz
Ritualitos que tiene uno para vivir
Para seguir cantando bajo este sol
Y cuando menos pienso las razones
Brotan como verdades iluminándome el corazón
El silencio de algún amigo me hizo aprender
A escuchar lo que las palabras jamás dirán
Y aferrándome de su mano pude entender
Que una tarde puede durar una eternidad
Y es cuando de repente su mirada
Me hace por un instante olvidar lo lejos que vine a dar
Tristecita que se me sale del alma a mí
Intentando pintar recuerdos de otro color
Ritualitos que inventa uno para vivir
Una historia, un lugar perdido y esta canción
Y es cuando de repente tu presencia
Viene llenar la ausencia a llevar de versos mi soledad

Lyrics translation

Little music that comes out of my soul to me
With words that someone dictates to me from another voice
Little rituals one has to live
To keep singing under this sun
And when I least think about the reasons
They sprout like truths illuminating my heart
The silence of some friend made me learn
To hear what words will never say
And holding on to his hand I could understand
That one afternoon can last forever
And that's when suddenly his gaze
It makes me for an instant forget how far I came to go
Little sadness that comes out of my soul to me
Trying to paint memories of another color
Little rituals that one invents to live
A story, a lost place and this song
And that's when suddenly your presence
Comes to fill the absence to carry verses my loneliness
