Katharina Lyrics in English AnnenMayKantereit

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Katharina by AnnenMayKantereit from German to English.
You're so wonderfully humble
And I love your calm
And sometimes I think that you can't
Like yourself as much as I like you
You don't believe anymore
That you can have everything
You see your friends somewhere on the beach
Living the life you just can't live right now
You don't believe anymore
That you can have everything
There's so much for you, I believe in that
Katharina, I believe in you
So many doubts, you don't need them
Katharina, I believe in you
So many doubts, you don't need them
Katharina
Katharina
And you
Always think you
Aren't enough
And your anger
Your anger's okay
And sometimes, when I look at you like that
I wanna know what comes next, what comes next
Katharina, I believe in you
So many doubts, you don't need them
Katharina, I believe in you
So many doubts, you don't need them
Katharina
Katharina
Katharina
Katharina, I believe in you
And your anger
It's okay and sometimes good
It's already okay and sometimes good
Katharina
Katharina
Katharina, I believe in you
So many doubts, you don't need them

SONG MEANING

Katharina by the German indie-rock trio AnnenMayKantereit feels like a warm pep-talk wrapped in a song. The singer turns to a friend named Katharina, admiring her quiet humility and calm aura, while noticing her self-doubt. He paints vivid images of her watching friends live carefree on distant beaches and thinking she does not measure up. Instead of letting her sink into insecurity, he keeps repeating the heartfelt mantra, “I believe in you,” reminding her that she really can have it all.

Beneath its gentle guitar strums lies a powerful message: it is okay to feel angry, it is okay to feel unsure, but do not let those feelings define you. The chorus sweeps in like a reassuring hug, urging Katharina—and anyone listening—to silence inner doubts and trust their own worth. The song becomes an anthem of encouragement, celebrating the beauty of self-acceptance and the transformative power of supportive friendship.
