Plegarias Lyrics in English by NICKI NICOLE
Plegarias translates directly to "prayers." It's a beautiful and evocative word that immediately sets a tone of deep emotion and spiritual yearning.
In the context of the song, Nicki Nicole uses "plegarias" to express a profound sense of desperation and hope, as she is "rogándole a Dios" (begging God) to have patience and not forget her. This word encapsulates the raw vulnerability and fervent hope present throughout the lyrics, making it both memorable and central to the song's emotional core.
Argentine artist NICKI NICOLE strips away the heavy bass of Latin urbano to deliver an intensely dramatic ballad in "Plegarias" (Prayers). Right from the opening lines, she finds someone broken down: "Te encontré plasmado / Culpable / Deteriorado" ("I found you stunned / Guilty / Deteriorated"). The core theme here is spiritual desperation. She claims she literally visits empty churches to plead on this person's behalf ("Llorando en las iglesias / Rogándole a Dios / Que tenga paciencia" [Crying in churches / Begging God / To have patience]), wondering who destroyed their innocence in "¿Quién mató tu inocencia hoy?" ("Who killed your innocence today?").
Her dedication is over the top: "Yo voy del infierno al sol / Que vuelvo por ti" ("I go from hell to the sun / I return for you"). But notice how the tone crashes into bitter honesty by the bridge. When she realizes the feeling is one-sided, she abandons church manners entirely: "Que tú ya no me quieres, esta mierda me va a matar" ("That you don't love me anymore, this shit is going to kill me"). It is a song about traveling across extremes for someone, only to walk away wounded and empty while trying to heal.
