Du hast viel geweint You have cried a lot
Im Geist getrennt In the mind apart
Im Herz vereint In the heart united
 
Wir sind schon sehr lang zusammen We have been together for a very long time
Dein Atem kalt Your breath is cold
Das Herz in Flammen The heart in flames
Du You
Ich I
Wir Us
Ihr You
 
Deutschland Germany
Mein Herz in Flammen My heart in flames
Will dich lieben und verdammen want to love you want to damn you
Deutschland Germany
Dein Atem kalt Your breath is cold
So jung so young
Und doch so alt and yet so old
Deutschland Germany
 
Ich I
Ich will dich nie verlassen I never want to leave you
Man kann dich lieben One want to love you
Und will dich hassen and want to hate you
Überheblich Overbearing (arrogant)
Überlegen Superior
Übernehmen to take over
Übergeben to surrender
Überraschen Surprising
Überfallen to attack (to assault, raid, invade)
Deutschland Deutschland über allen Germany Germany over everyone
 
Deutschland Germany
Mein Herz in Flammen My heart in flames
Will dich lieben und verdammen want to love you want to damn you
Deutschland Germany
Dein Atem kalt Your breath is cold
So jung so young
Und doch so alt and yet so old
Deutschland Germany
 
Deutschland Germany
Deine Liebe ist Fluch und Segen Your love is a curse and a blessing
Deutschland Germany
Meine Liebe kann ich dir nicht geben My love i cannot give to you

Deutschland Germany
Du You
Ich I
Wir Us
Ihr You
 
Übermächtig Superior
Überflüssig Needles
Übermenschen Beyond-Man*
Überdrüssig Sick of
Wer hoch steigt, der wird tief fallen The higher you climb, the farther you fall
Deutschland Deutschland über allen Germany Germany over everyone
 
Deutschland Germany
Dein Herz in Flammen My heart in flames
Will dich lieben und verdammen want to love you want to damn you
Deutschland Germany
Mein Atem kalt My breath is cold
So jung so young
Und doch so alt and yet so old
Deutschland Germany
Deine Liebe ist Fluch und Segen Your love is a curse and a blessing

Meine Liebe kann ich dir nicht geben My love I cannot give to you

* The term Übermensch (German for “Beyond-Man”, “Superman”, “Overman”, “Superhuman”, “Hyperman”, “Hyperhuman”) was used frequently by the Nazi regime to describe their idea of a biologically superior Aryan or Germanic master race.

    It is a very monumental song.. To say the least…It is almost as saying… We can do better than this… A MESSAGE TO THE WORLD…. Francois Villagrana…

  2. If you take into concept Germanic, before Germany was a country… Prussia, before it was Prussia and the Germanic peoples origins of Celts and Slavs intermixing. We love you before, we hate what has been despised, we Love our people and our culture. “Germany” Uber allen.

  3. Peace and love from Israel. I love this song.
    Our history will live together, I totally feel you.
    You’ve surrender for the right causes! Don’t feel guilt, grow to be proud of it!! We are all humen.

    Love.

      • What an ignorant thing to say. The Israeli government doesn’t represent the views of all Israelis or even most of them. Nearly 75% of Israelis want the government to negotiate and to the war. The focus of the public is on returning the hostages, and the government has shifted from prioritizing the hostages to completely destroying Gaza. Tens of thousands of Israelis have protested the government’s actions, and even many on the right are disagreeing with the escalation of the war and publicly calling for de-escalation.

        The vast majority of Israelis don’t want this, and almost no Jew in America wants this.

      • What you need to do is get rid of the nazi.That’s running your country who i’m absolutely convinced has Hitler’s blood in his veins

        • How dare you talk about the Austrian painter he did more good than most current government. He looked out for his people as it should be! Our government doesn’t even look after us giving us poisoned food! You should look past this fake history books written by the winners. Germany third reich should had won and we fought the wrong enemy.

    • I don’t think it’s needless. I don’t think Germans today should feel guilty for the things Germany did before they were alive. However, acknowledging your country’s troubled history is important. It makes you enlightened and less likely to repeat the mistakes of the past.

  4. This is one of my FAVORITE SONGS! This is the 3rd song I ever herd from Rammstein (Coming in first “Sonne” and “Du Hast”), I LOVE THIS SONG ALOT, LIKE ALOT! The bigging is amazing the way he sings is just amazing. The amount of power a depth he adds to that part, he sounds like a goddess. Me and my friend love this song together and will forever be our number 1 favorite. This is so off topic BUT DOES ANYONE ELSE THINK THE JACKET MERCH FROM RAMMSTEIN IS EXPENSIVE? ALMOST 300 DOLLARS FOR A FRICKEN JACKET?? Super unfair in my opinion. :/

  5. Wer hoch steigt, der wird tief fallen
    this line reminds me one of popular Persian Poem by Rumi. It means that the world is ladder and soon or later this ladder will break and fall . so the bones of those who are at the higher steps will break harder.

  6. @Trial
    If you knew anything about Rammstein you’d know they avoid politics. Till said “IF you have to put us in a direction, we are liberal”.

    • Kinda sad they want to fall into Liberals, IF one must set them to a political position.
      Liberals are not liberals anymore. At this current time, liberals worldwide have been given a very hard twist which somehow they accepted.

      What is even more sad though, is if one must set them to a political position, they accepted to take one.

  7. Im Geist getrennt – Separated in mind/spirit
    Im Herz vereint – United in heart

    Du (Du kannst) – You (you can)
    Ich (Ich weiß) – I (I know)
    Wir (Wir sind) – We (We are)
    Ihr (Ihr bleibt) – You (You remain)*

    Überheblich – Overbearing /arrogant
    Überlegen – Superior
    Übernehmen – Assuming
    Übergeben – Surrendering (handing over) or perhaps Consigning / remanding
    Überraschen – Surprising / perhaps also
    Überfallen – Attacking / assaulting

    Man kann dich lieben Und will dich hassen – One can love you and want to hate you

    Will dich lieben und verdammen – I want to love and damn/condemn you

    Wer hoch steigt, der wird tief fallen – Whom rises high, will fall deeply.

    Übermächtig – Overpowering
    Überflüssig – Needless or Redundant**
    Übermenschen – Superhuman
    Überdrüssig – Weary

    * You plural meaning “you all remain”

    ** This was most likely a typo, but I think that redundant seems to be a better fit to the mood of the song.

  8. LOL! I think Till and my Reech have love affairs with their wigs! I love it!!! At least they’re getting good use out of them… lol! ( referencing Reech’s wig he wore in his bands video “Youre so Beautiful” and Till with his grungy straight long hair one from “Mann Gegen Mann” LOVE IT GUYS!! Love you!
