Unter Dem Meer Lyrics in English by In Extremo
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Unter Dem Meer by In Extremo from German to English.
Tod bitterer Tod
Bitter death, bitter death
Tod bitterer Tod
Bitter death, bitter death
Du Räuber nahmst die Liebste mir
You robber took my beloved from me
Und lässt mich leiden fern von ihr
And let me suffer far from her
Tod bitterer Tod
Bitter death, bitter death
Hast du lebend sie gehasst
Did you hate her when she was alive?
Nun bist du satt von diesem Bissen
Now you're sated from this bite
Werd ohne Liebe leben müssen
I'll have to live without love
Du schleichst so lautlos wie ein Tier
You creep as silently as an animal
Welcher Fluch treibt dich zu mir
What curse drives you to me?
Doch über den Wolken
But above the clouds
Und unter dem Meer
And under the sea
Hinter all deinen Sünden
Behind all your sins
Werd ich dich finden
I'll find you
Doch über den Wolken
But above the clouds
Und unter dem Meer
And under the sea
In deinem Heim
In your home
Wirst du nicht sicher sein
You won't be safe
Tod grausamer Tod
Cruel death, cruel death
Tod grausamer Tod
Cruel death, cruel death
Zwei waren wir- doch nur ein Herz
We were two, but only one heart
Wir teilten Liebe, wir teilten Schmerz
We shared love, we shared pain
Tod grausamer Tod
Cruel death, cruel death
Mich erdrückt die Tränenlast
The burden of tears crushes me
Bis zum Ende werd ich sie suchen
Until the end I'll search for her
Bis zum Ende werd ich dich verfluchen
Until the end I'll curse you
Du schleichst so lautlos wie ein Tier
You creep as silently as an animal
Welcher Fluch treibt dich zu mir
What curse drives you to me?
Doch über den Wolken
But above the clouds
Du bist zwar satt von diesem Bissen
You are indeed sated from this bite
Doch wirst mein Leid bald teilen müssen
But you'll soon have to share my suffering

Did you like this lyrics translation?
Räuber — Robber / Raider
Räuber literally translates to "robber" or "raider". It's a strong, evocative word that immediately conjures images of danger and loss.
In this song, the word is used metaphorically to describe Death itself. The lyrics say, "Du Räuber nahmst die Liebste mir" (You robber took my beloved from me), personifying Death as a thief who cruelly steals away a loved one. This powerful imagery makes the word particularly memorable and impactful in the context of the song's dark theme.
