Die Unbekannte Farbe Lyrics in English by Lacrimosa

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Die Unbekannte Farbe by Lacrimosa from German to English.
Come take my hand
Everything seems so calm
Everything falls into place
But everything might not be everything
Suddenly everything feels strange
And totally foreign
Suddenly the heart cries
Suddenly the heart cries
Everything seems so calm
Everything falls into place
Everything we see
Isn't all there is
Two hundred and two kisses away
And yet incomparably beautiful
To me you're the color
That nobody has ever seen

unvergleichbar — incomparable

Unvergleichbar translates to "incomparable" or "beyond compare". It's a strong adjective that emphasizes uniqueness and exceptional quality, suggesting something is so special it cannot be measured against anything else.

In the context of the song, the lyrics state, "Zwei hundert und zwei Küsse entfernt Und doch unvergleichbar schön" (Two hundred and two kisses away And yet incomparably beautiful). This word is used to describe a beauty that is so profound and unique it stands alone, making it a captivating and memorable choice to entice learners.

Lacrimosa invites us on a dreamy journey where everyday reality slips just a little out of focus. At first, everything in “Die Unbekannte Farbe” feels perfectly arranged, almost peaceful. Yet the singer quickly reveals that this calm surface hides a rush of unfamiliar emotions. The heart begins to cry, not out of sadness, but from the overwhelming sensation of discovering something more than what our eyes can normally see. Like stepping into a painting and realizing there are shades that have never existed on any palette, the song suggests that life still holds secrets waiting to be felt.

That mystery is embodied by a single, dazzling image — the color no one has ever seen. This unknown hue represents a love so rare that ordinary words fail to describe it. Even if the lovers are “two hundred and two kisses” apart, their connection remains “unvergleichbar schön” (incomparably beautiful). In short, the track paints love as a brand-new color that transforms everything it touches, encouraging listeners to trust the hand that leads them into the vivid unknown.
