Buy Rammstein song “Ich Tu Dir Weh” on Amazon
| Nur für mich bist du am Leben | You’re only alive for me |
| Ich steck dir Orden ins Gesicht | I put medals into your face |
| Du bist mir ganz und gar ergeben | You are entirely devoted to me |
| Du liebst mich denn ich lieb’ dich nicht | You love me because I don’t love you |
| Du blutest für mein Seelenheil | You bleed for my salvation |
| Ein kleiner Schnitt und du wirst geil | A small cut and you’re horny |
| Der Körper – schon total entstellt | The body – already totally distorted |
| Egal, erlaubt ist, was gefällt | It doesn’t matter, whatever pleases is allowed |
| Ich tu’ dir weh. | I hurt you |
| Tut mir nicht Leid! | I’m not sorry |
| Das tut dir gut. | It does you good |
| Hör wie es schreit! | Hear how it screams! |
| Bei dir habe ich die Wahl der Qual | With you I have the choice of torment* |
| Stacheldraht im Harnkanal | Barbed wire in the urethral tract |
| Leg dein Fleisch in Salz und Eiter | Put your flesh in salt and pus |
| Erst stirbst du doch dann lebst du weiter | First you die but then you live on |
| Bisse, Tritte, harte Schläge | Bites, kicks, hard blows |
| Nadel, Zangen, stumpfe Säge | Needle, pliers, blunt saw |
| Wünsch’ dir was, ich sag nicht nein | What you wish, I don’t say no |
| Und führ’ dir Nagetiere ein | And insert rodents into you |
| Ich tu’ dir weh. | I hurt you |
| Tut mir nicht Leid! | I’m not sorry |
| Das tut dir gut. | It does you good |
| Hör wie es schreit! | Hear how it screams |
| Ich tu’ dir weh. | I hurt you |
| Tut mir nicht Leid! | I’m not sorry |
| Es tut dir gut. | It does you good |
| Hör wie es schreit! | Hear how it screams |
| Du bist das Schiff, ich der Kapitän | You are the ship, I’m the captain |
| Wohin soll denn die Reise geh’n? | Where should this journey go |
| Ich seh’ im Spiegel dein Gesicht | I see your face in the mirror |
| Du liebst mich denn ich lieb’ dich nicht | You love me because I don’t love you |
| Ich tu’ dir weh. | I hurt you |
| Tut mir nicht Leid! | I’m not sorry |
| Das tut dir gut. | It does you good |
| Hört wie es schreit! | Hear how it screams |
| Ich tu’ dir weh. | I hurt you |
| Tut mir nicht Leid! | I’m not sorry |
| Das tut dir gut. | It does you good |
| Hör wie es schreit! | Hear how it screams |
| Ich tu’ dir weh. | I hurt you |
| Tut mir nicht Leid! | I’m not sorry |
| Das tut dir gut. | It does you good |
| Hör wie’s schreit! | Hear how it screams |

Translation Notes:
* Inversion of the German collocation “die Qual der Wahl haben” (the torment of choice, means to be spoilt for choice)
Masochism almost sounds amazing right now. xD
@Gofuckyourself,
Dude why look up Rammstein,if you hate their music?
dumb troll.
anyway this song is so kick ass, one of the best songs I have ever listened to.
Kinda makes me think of S&M.For someodd reason….
This song is about what he does to himself when he needs to be dad and go to pee.He is gay cunt.I fucking hate this artist,cuz I don’t know who he is .Do you need more honesty?
He already wants to get killed.cuz I can’t stand this motherfucker.This is honest truthI hope another woman will like you more then me and you’ll become a bag of shit . your dick is shit.i hope you suffer from impotence.I vomit.how about this.cuz this is last last shit that i wish you and want to be.this is it.
You, sir, are a fucking retard, no more, no less. Before you go criticizing of the most original music acts from Germany, learn to spell. But first and foremost, actually learn the language you’re using to write your nonsensical bullshit. Given your post though, I doubt you have the brain capacity or IQ to even begin understanding the complexity and the intricate poetry that is Rammstein. So in your own words, go fuck yourself.

uhmmmm barbed wire in the urethral tract….uuhm how did that get there? ._.
Holy shit, the translation of the lyrics blows more cock than the gay version of Ron Jeremy.
The translation is inaccurate and doesn’t forwards the vile context.
@Anna, yes this is true, it struck a bow to me aswell but if you want to find out more its in his biography, and also, the next album comming out will unfortunately be the last we will ever hear from them
@Raekon, thankyou, I took your words as a massive compliment 😀
Slightly off-topic though guys, I heard Till once said that he was retiring when he hit 50 to spend more time with family, anyone know if that’s true? I’d love to see them once more in the UK before they call it a day!
Rammstein: The only band capable of having lyrics so dark mixed with music so heavy that it actually becomes awesome
no wonder this song is rated the highest
I truly feel this song on a personal level. I could say more, but there’s no point.
I just wish Til was gay. LOL
Man such a powerful song.. the vocals and instrumental work is perfect.
This is honestly the best song out of rammstein that i have heard in a long time. I believe that he is saying what he feels when he writes the poem and then sings it. Just let him write what he wants, he’s got more talent and potential in his writing then most of us and it gives us an inspiration to listen to his kick ass mustic!!! Forever Rammstein
Very good song. hard to sing but very powerful
The song translates exactly like this:
Only for me you are alive
I’ll put medals in the face
You are entirely devoted to me
You love me because I do not love you
You bleed for my soul
A small cut and you’re horny
The body – already totally distorted
Allowed matter is what pleases
I hurt you
I’m not sorry!
It does you good.
Hear how it screams!
With you I have a hard time choosing
Barbed wire in the urethral tract
Put your meat in salt and pus
First you die but then you live on
Bites, kicks, hard blow
Needle, pliers, blunt saw
Wish you something, I do not say no
And drove yourself a rodent
I hurt you.
I’m not sorry!
It does you good.
Hear how it screams!
I hurt you.
I’m not sorry!
It does you good.
Hear how it screams!
You are the ship, the Captain I
Where do you want for your trip go?
I see your face in the mirror
You love me because I do not love you
I hurt you.
I’m not sorry!
It does you good.
Hear how it screams!
I hurt you.
I’m not sorry!
It does you good.
Hear how it screams!
Holy crap lol great song but seriously scary lyrics xD
I love that this song has sprouted so much conversation. And mainly just about the meaning. I agree with the overall themes, you have all thought very well (and seemingly hard lol) on this. I’ll say these things: I have loved Rammstein’s music since i first heard it, and always will (minus Rosenrot). They have very deep meanings that could all be taken in a million different ways by a million different people, go with what you are most comfortable with.
@SHADOW I completely agree. Leave art to the open-minded. If you don’t like Rammstein, go listen to that poppy stuff that is meant to make you feel good and fill your head with shit. Thats just not for me. KEEP IT UP RAMMSTEIN! HEIL!
