Du You
du hast you have

Willst du bis der Tod euch scheidet Do you want, until death seperates you,
treu ihr sein für alle Tage to be faithful to her for all days
 
Nein No
 
Willst du bis zum Tod, der scheide Do you want, until death, which would seperate,

This song is by and large Rammstein’s most well-known song in their entire library. It is a play on German wedding vows; however, it can be interpreted many different ways. The first lines of the song can have a double meaning; the phrases Du hast and Du hasst mean You have and You hate, respectively, but they are homophones (in the official German it means “you have”). For more info, see the singles page.

  1. Umm, Du hast means, YOU HATE, Dumbasses, there is even the damn hidden song at the end of the cd its on that PROVES that! IDIOT! Geeze!

  2. I have never taken a single German class, but some words are similiar to Norwegian. But anyways. I can still figure what the lyrics mean, it’s obvious that it’s not hate. Du hast mich gefragt und ich hab nicht gesagt is obvious. it meas you have asked me, and i have not answered.

  3. Ben – Okay I don’t know if you know how much we appreciate your work you guys or if you read these comments or not but this is DEFINITELY our like ALL TIME like favorite song!! We did this song for our school talent show—John – I agree, without you guys I never would have gotten on stage in front of our school (about a total of 1000 people) You guys Rock!

  4. ok, im in german 2, and my class has prank called germany before and all that, im a 16 yr old girl, and it is YOU HAVE. it says DU HAST with one 's' if it was Du Hasst with a double 's' or an ess-set, its you hate. but the english song is wrong, english always mis-interprets other languages, we do it with japanese too… so its YOU HAVE not YOU HATE. so there.

  5. i agree w/kat who cares if its have or hate its a great song and even though i live in the united states i am german and i dont care bout the comments of others cuz its wat u like so just enjoy the music and if it was supose to be in english it would have been but its not its supose to be in german cuz its amazing like that lol.

  6. I am not German, but i know someone that knows someone that brushed along a German in Disney Land.. That person told my friend that Du Hast means "Dudes Have" then it goes on to say "Dudes Have big Balls".

    You're all wrong.

    GAME OVER!

    • DUDE, YOU ARE SO FUCKING STUPID!!!! I HAVE BEEN LEARNING GERMAN, IDIOT. IT DOES NOT MEAN "DUDES HAVE" DIPSHIT!! MAYBE YOU NEED TO LOOK IT UP BEFORE YOU FUCKING WRITE SHIT!!!!!!!!! BITCH YOU JUST GOT OWNED! WHAT NOW MUTTERBUMSEN! AND IF YOU ARE TOO STUPID TO NOT KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS, IT MEANS MOTHERFUCKER, BITCH!!!!!

  7. I speak French and I don't know any German. So, I'm going to take a guess and say that "du hast mean "you horse".

  8. remember the song “i think we’re alone now” by debbie gibson? was she singing the part as “it doesn’t seem to be anyone in town?” if so, why was there no one in town? did she massacre everyone? isn’t it a creepy song?

  9. I am English… did 4 years of German at school never really took it in… but even I thought it was You HAVE… until someone said it was HATE and then made me think I was wrong! Glad to know I was right! I have not heard the English version.

  10. Here’s a way to settle this I think… But people will probably still argue.

    1) Go to http://www.google.com
    2) Find the small link “Language Tools” to the right of the search field.
    3) Click it, and select below “German to English.”
    4) Type in “du hast mich gefragt,” and it will return “you have asked me.”

  11. i agree with kat i mean WTF? Dose it matter if u translate it? noone really knows wut they're saying anyway right?
