Unser Sommer Lyrics in English by Max Giesinger
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Unser Sommer by Max Giesinger from German to English.
Ich geh' nicht ans Telefon
I don't answer the phone
Der Fernseher ohne Ton
The TV without sound
Geschlossene Jalousien
Closed blinds
Weiß nicht mal, welchen Tag wir haben
Don't even know what day it is
Sitz' müde auf'm Bett
I'm sitting tired on the bed
Trink' Kaffee, der nicht schmeckt
Drinking coffee that doesn't taste good
Und alles lässt mich kalt
And everything leaves me cold
Will nur noch Stille um mich haben
Just want silence around me
Und draußen ist der Sommer
And outside it's summer
Die beste Zeit im Jahr
The best time of the year
Die Straßen voller Menschen, ein Himmel wie gemalt
The streets full of people, a sky like a painting
Alles so, wie's sein soll, nur du bist nicht mehr da
Everything as it should be, only you're not here anymore
Draußen ist es Sommer
Outside it's summer
Und draußen ist es Sommer
And outside it's summer
Gedanken drehen sich
Thoughts are spinning
Wie wild im Kreis, und ich
Wildly in circles, and I
Drehe laut die Lieder auf
Turn up the songs loudly
Sie sonst immer geholfen haben
That always used to help
Pack' jeden, der was will
I snap at anyone who wants something
Ich und mein Spiegelbild
Me and my reflection
Wir kommen hier schon klar
We'll be fine here
Muss niemand anders um mich haben
Don't need anyone else around me
Und draußen ist der Sommer
And outside it's summer
Die beste Zeit im Jahr
The best time of the year
Die Parks voller Menschen, ein Himmel wie gemalt
The parks full of people, a sky like a painting
Alles so, wie's sein soll, nur du bist nicht mehr da
Everything as it should be, only you're not here anymore
Draußen ist es Sommer, und draußen ist es Sommer
Outside it's summer, and outside it's summer
Draußen ist der Sommer, das war immer unsre Zeit
Outside it's summer, that was always our time
Es war, als wenn die Sonne nur für uns beide scheint
It was as if the sun only shone for the two of us
Jetzt ist nichts mehr, wie es sein soll, denn du bist nicht mehr da
Now nothing is as it should be, 'cause you're not here anymore
Draußen ist es Sommer
Outside it's summer
Draußen ist es Sommer
Outside it's summer
Draußen ist es Sommer
Outside it's summer
Draußen ist es Sommer
Outside it's summer
Draußen ist es Sommer
Outside it's summer

Did you like this lyrics translation?
gemalt — painted
Gemalt means "painted" and is the past participle of the verb malen (to paint). While seemingly simple, its usage in this song is quite evocative.
Max Giesinger uses it to describe the summer sky: "ein Himmel wie gemalt" (a sky like it's painted). This phrase suggests a sky so perfect and beautiful that it looks like a work of art, rather than a natural occurrence. It adds a poetic and slightly melancholic touch, highlighting the beauty of the summer that the singer is experiencing without his loved one.
