Sonne Lyrics in English Rammstein

Home / Lyrics Translation / Rammstein / Sonne

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Sonne by Rammstein from German to English.

One, two, three, four, five, six

Seven, eight, nine, out

Everybody's waiting for the light

Be afraid, don't be afraid

The sun shines out of my eyes

It won't set tonight

And the world counts out loud to ten

One

Here comes the sun

Two

Here comes the sun

Three

She's the brightest star of all

Four

Here comes the sun

The sun shines out of my hands

Can burn, can blind you

When it bursts from the fists

Lays down hot on the face

It won't set tonight

And the world counts out loud to ten

One

Here comes the sun

Two

Here comes the sun

Three

She's the brightest star of all

Four

Here comes the sun

Five

Here comes the sun

Six

Here comes the sun

Seven

She's the brightest star of all

Eight, nine

Here comes the sun

One

Here comes the sun

Two

Here comes the sun

Three

She's the brightest star of all

Four

And will never fall from the sky

Five

Here comes the sun

Six

Here comes the sun

Seven

She's the brightest star of all

Eight, nine

Here comes the sun

Out

SONG MEANING

Here comes the sun… but not the gentle, beach-vacation kind! In “Sonne,” Rammstein turns the Sun into a larger-than-life character, counting from eins to zehn like a referee before the blinding light bursts onto the scene. The band sings of a light so powerful it shines from their eyes and burns in their hands, a cosmic force that refuses to set. This Sun can inspire hope («Alle warten auf das Licht») yet also scorch and overwhelm («Kann verbrennen, kann euch blenden»). Think of it as a symbol for raw energy, fame, victory or any unstoppable power that makes people cheer and tremble at the same time.

With its pounding rhythm and hypnotic countdown, the song mirrors a dramatic build-up—much like a boxing entrance, a rocket launch or even the rise of a superstar. Every shout of “Hier kommt die Sonne” feels like another spotlight flash, daring listeners to look straight into the glare. By the end, the Sun is declared “der hellste Stern von allen” (the brightest star of all) and promises never to fall from the sky, leaving us awestruck, slightly singed and ready to hit replay.
