After reports said that BBC asked the EBU to remove the lyric, the BBC did not confirm or deny to Newsnight that this was the case.

Hope that clears it up.

Miriana, the Maltese entrant, has said that she “we did not mean to offend anyone” and that the song means “singing in our language.”

“We’ve made the adjustments to ensure the focus remains on the music and the message.”
