Liebe Ist... Lyrics in English Namika , Zaz

Home / Lyrics Translation / Namika / Liebe Ist...

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Liebe Ist... by Namika from French to English.

Until when is someone infatuated?

(German)

And when is it love?

(German)

And aren't those, like

(German)

the same feelings?

(German)

I just can't figure it out

(German)

despite all the effort

(German)

I don't get

(German)

why I don't get it

(German)

Tried Google

(German)

studied specialist articles

(German)

meditated on a lonely mountain

(German)

philosophized endlessly

(German)

I'm still confused

(German)

Tell me, is anyone here

(German)

feeling just like me?

(German)

How do I know that it's love?

(German)

I don't understand my feelings

(German)

I've asked everywhere

(German)

'You'll feel it then'

(German)

they said

(German)

How do I know that it's love?

(German)

The books won't tell you that

(German)

But I'll give it a shot

(German)

If I find out, I'll let you know

(German)

Like you, I sometimes wonder

if love's just a sad dream

Is it the scent or the grain of the voice

that makes our heartbeats rise

When the bodies entwine

the hearts kiss

life flares up and everything starts again

Yes, but

our feelings are like those clouds

dressing in fear or hope

you know

so many questions show up

and time reminds me

that it's urgent, my love

to love each other

Inside, Eden

a garden for oneself

a cry from the heart

trying to be heard

How do I know that it's love?

I don't understand my feelings

I've asked everywhere

'You'll feel it then'

they said

How do I know that it's love?

The books won't tell you that

But I'll give it a shot

If I find out, I'll let you know

I want to love with all sails set

out in the open, to the sweet sound of chords

no matter the joys, the sorrows

loving wherever the wind takes me

I want to love with all sails set

in my heart, a craving for more

laughing in the face of chrysanthemums

loving wherever the wind takes me

How do I know that it's love?

I don't understand my feelings

But I'll give it a shot

It can't be that hard

SONG MEANING

Liebe Ist… is a playful, bilingual quest for answers to the oldest question in the book: Is this just a crush or is it the real thing? Namika’s German verses list every modern trick for decoding emotions—Google searches, academic papers, mountain retreats—yet she is still none the wiser. Zaz then sweeps in with poetic French lines, comparing feelings to shifting clouds that can cloak themselves in fear or hope. Their back-and-forth shows that, whether you speak German or French, love remains delightfully mysterious.

Instead of handing us a tidy definition, the song invites us to stop overthinking and feel. The chorus admits that books offer no clues and friends can only say “You’ll just know,” so why not hoist the sails and let the wind decide, as Zaz sings? With its upbeat groove and humorous self-doubt, “Liebe Ist…” celebrates the messy, exhilarating moment when you choose to trust your heart—even if you still can’t explain how love really works.
