Ariel Lyrics in English Casper

Home / Lyrics Translation / Casper / Ariel

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Ariel by Casper from German to English.

On giants' shoulders

Maybe we'll never land!

Eyes as big as the moon

See how shadows disappear!

Breathe the moment in real deep

Then never let it go

Feel your heart just skip a beat!

And when it goes kick kick

All the walls start shaking then

I truly believe a lyric can still save a life

That the songs you love

Always hold peace inside

Notes live forever

No grave's too deep for music

If, like for me

Your biggest worry is mediocrity

And I go, please don't forget me then

please don't forget me

Spray it on the walls

Say "We were here!"

Anti everything forever

Thanks to you!

When I go

When I go, when I go, when I go

I'm still here as long as the band keeps playing

And everything is good

Different, but good different

When I go

When I go, when I go, when I go

I'm still here as long as the band keeps playing

And everything is good

Different, but good different

When I go

And tell me, how was it where you went

Is it true about the colors, all warm and dimmed?

When I got the call, speech left me

Everybody's waiting for me to say something

Was never strong at things like this

But tell me, how was it?

Was there, where you arrived

The everlasting choir?

The parade, like they say?

An overwhelming nothing

Behind blinding glaring light

The biggest party of all!

Hope it keeps what it promises

Bet you're still on Bourbon Street

And laugh at tourists every night

In the bars you usually hate

And when it gets dark in the city of sinners

"Champagne Supernova" forever

When I go

When I go, when I go, when I go

I'm still here as long as the band keeps playing

And everything is good

Different, but good different

When I go

When I go, when I go, when I go

I'm still here as long as the band keeps playing

And everything is good

Different, but good different

When I go

They say in the end everything's good

And if it isn't good, it can't be the end

In the end everything's good

And if it's not good, it's damn sure not the end

No!

SONG MEANING

Ariel feels like a late-night conversation while the amps are still buzzing. Casper lifts us “on the shoulders of giants” and lets us breathe in the moment where music makes walls shake and hearts skip. He swears that a lyric can still save a life, that every song we love hides a pocket of peace, and that no grave is deep enough to bury a melody.

Yet the track is really Casper talking to himself and to anyone afraid of being average or forgotten. He imagines the afterlife as one endless street party in New Orleans, laughing at tourists and sipping a Champagne Supernova. If he leaves, he tells us, he is still here as long as the band keeps playing. Things will be different, but “good different.” The final promise rings out like a chant at the end of a gig: if it is not good yet, the story is not over.
