After two years of recording silence, Rosalía returns with Berghaina song that anticipates the new album LUXout November 7. Recorded with the London Symphony Orchestra conducted by Daníel Bjarnason, the album also brings together voices such as Carminho, Estrella Morente and Silvia Pérez Cruz, in a mosaic of femininity and spirituality.
The single Berghainmade with Björk and Yves Tumor, is an emotional journey between languages and sound universes that come together in a work that is both confession and catharsis. In all, the texts present a selection of 13 different languages: not only the more classic German, Spanish and English, but also Latin, Ukrainian and Sicilian dialect.
A club symbol of freedom and transformation
The title Berghain recalls the famous Berlin club, temple of techno and icon of underground culture. But for Rosalía, Berghain is not just a physical place: it becomes a metaphor for internal catharsis, a mental territory where every emotion finds space. As in the club, freedom arises from chaos, disorder becomes balance, and self-abandonment coincides with healing. It is a place of the soul, where music becomes an emotional language and vulnerability becomes strength.
A spiritual drama in images
But it is in the video clip directed by Nicolás Méndez that the meaning of the song finds its deepest form. The video of Berghain opens with Rosalía entering the house and opening the curtains. Light floods the room, but a statue of the Virgin Mary immediately introduces the central conflict of the story: spirituality versus desire. The house, a symbol of refuge, soon becomes an emotional prison, where the protagonist struggles against an invisible pain. The orchestra that follows her – not a metaphor but a living presence – represents the mind that does not remain silent, the thoughts that play inside her, amplifying the anguish.
Every daily gesture is full of tension: household chores become mechanical rituals, the medical examination an act of surrender. When the singer appears half-naked with electrodes on her chest, the scene reveals the true center of pain: it is not the physical heart, but the emotional one. Neither science nor religion offers answers; the diagnosis is love itself and has no cure.
The subsequent images alternate interiors and urban spaces, where Rosalía continues to be followed by the orchestra, unable to escape her feelings. In a jewelry store she carries her heart in her hand, but no one can repair it: love is neither pure nor eternal. In the finale, the artist transforms into a sort of modern Snow White, surrounded by animals and blood, until she collapses exhausted in bed and her eyelashes become wings. The dove that is born is not white: it is stained, like the soul of someone who has suffered and found freedom in pain.
LUXa total project
Berghain it’s more than a video clip: it’s a meditation on human frailty, an exploration of internal chaos that becomes rebirth. Rosalía constructs a visual story in which love, guilt and faith coexist in a dance suspended between the sacred and the profane.
With LUXRosalía carries forward her idea of music as a total experience, where the border between visual art, sound and spirituality dissolves. The album, structured in four movements, is a collective journey towards the light, but also a confrontation with the shadows that live there. Berghain it is the threshold: a sung confession, an act of purification that transforms pain into beauty.
The lyrics and translation of “Berghain”
Below you will find the complete text of Berghain with Italian translation:
(Refrain)
Seine Angst ist meine Angst
Seine Wut ist meine Wut
Seine Liebe ist meine Liebe
Sein Blut ist mein Blut
(Verse 1: Rosalía)
Die Flamme dringt in mein Gehirn ein
Wie a Blei-Teddybär
I want to see Dinge in my Herzen auf
Deshalb ist mein Herz so schwer
(Refrain)
Seine Angst ist meine Angst
Seine Wut ist meine Wut
Seine Liebe ist meine Liebe
Sein Blut ist mein Blut
(Verse 2: Rosalía)
I’m very good at what I know
Ternura pa’l café
I’m just a blue guy
If the heat melts me
He will disappear
When you come and when I go
(Chorus: Björk)
Seine Angst ist meine Angst
Seine Wut ist meine Wut
(This is divine intervention)
Seine Liebe ist meine Liebe
Sein Blut ist mein Blut
(Ponto: Björk)
The only way to save us is through divine intervention
The only way I will be saved (Is through) divine intervention
(Outro: Yves Tumor)
I’ll **** you till you love me
I’ll **** you till you love me
I’ll **** you till you love me
Till you love me
Till you love me
Till you love me
Till you love me
Till you love me
Love me
Till you, till you love me
I’ll **** you till you love me
I’ll **** you till you love me
Love me
Love me
Love me
Love me
(Returnello)
His fear is my fear
His anger is my anger
His love is my love
His blood is my blood
(Verse 1: Rosalía)
The flame penetrates my mind
Like a leaden teddy bear
I keep many things in my heart
This is why my heart is so heavy
(Refrain)
His fear is my fear
His anger is my anger
His love is my love
His blood is my blood
(Verse 2: Rosalía)
I know very well who I am
Sweetness for coffee
I’m just a sugar cube
I know the heat melts me
I know how to disappear
When you arrive, that’s when I leave
(Chorus: Björk)
His fear is my fear
His anger is my anger
(This is divine intervention)
His love is my love
His blood is my blood
(Bridge: Björk)
The only way to save us is through divine intervention
The only way I will be saved is through divine intervention
(Outro: Yves Tumor)
I will love you as long as you love me too (editor’s note: translation sweetened due to profanity)
I will love you as long as you love me too
I will love you as long as you love me too
As long as you love me too
As long as you love me too
Love me
Love me
Love me
