Ze Kent Mij Lyrics in English by Snelle, Yade Lauren

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Ze Kent Mij by Snelle from Dutch to English.
Verse 1
Ze kent mijn lyrics niet
She doesn't know my lyrics
Geen ritme, geen melodie
No rhythm, no melody
Nee, ze kent mij
No, she knows me
Ze kent mij
She knows me
Chorus 1
Ze kent mij niet van al mijn liedjes
She doesn't know me from all my songs
Ze kent mij niet van al mijn songs
She doesn't know me from all my tracks
Ze kent mijn liefde, mijn verdriet
She knows my love, my sadness
En 't is precies zo andersom
And it's exactly the other way around
Ze kent mij
She knows me
Ze kent mij als geen ander
She knows me like nobody else
Ze kent mij
She knows me
Ze kent mij als geen ander
She knows me like nobody else
Verse 2
Ze kent mij en al m'n zwakke plekken
She knows me and all my weak spots
Ze maakt er gretig gebruik van ook
She eagerly makes use of them too
Maar wat kan ik er van zeggen?
But what can I say about it?
Ze weet hoe ik ben als ik m'n zin niet krijg
She knows how I am when I don't get my way
Ze ziet mijn potentie en het kind in mij
She sees my potential and the kid in me
Hoe ik stop in april en begin in mei
How I quit in April and start again in May
Nu ben ik vrijwel alles wat ik wilde zijn
Now I'm pretty much everything I wanted to be
Maar dat kan haar niet schelen
But she couldn't care less
Al ben ik heer en meester
Even if I'm lord and master
Al ben ik meer dan het meeste
Even if I'm more than most
Ze kent mij, ze kent mij
She knows me, she knows me
Chorus 2
Ze kent mij niet van al mijn liedjes
She doesn't know me from all my songs
Ze kent mij niet van al mijn songs
She doesn't know me from all my tracks
Ze kent mijn liefde, mijn verdriet
She knows my love, my sadness
En 't is precies zo andersom
And it's exactly the other way around
Ze kent mij
She knows me
Ze kent mij als geen ander
She knows me like nobody else
Ze kent mij
She knows me
Ze kent mij als geen ander
She knows me like nobody else
Ze kent mij
She knows me
Ze kent mij als geen ander
She knows me like nobody else
Ze kent mij
She knows me
Ze kent mij als geen ander
She knows me like nobody else
Ze kent mij
She knows me
Ze kent mij als geen ander
She knows me like nobody else
Ze kent mij
She knows me
Ze kent mij als geen ander
She knows me like nobody else
Verse 3
Kent mij
Knows me
Ik ken jou
I know you
Verse 3
En ik laat jou niet los
And I won't let you go
En jij
And you
Je maakt me soms para
You sometimes make me paranoid
Ik ken al je streken
I know all your tricks
Zij kennen van alles, maar je verleden
They know everything, but your past
Ik wil je zien lachen, ik wil je zien leven
I wanna see you laugh, I wanna see you live
En ja-ja-yeah
And yeah-yeah-yeah
En echt, ik kan een puinhoop zijn
And really, I can be a mess
Maar jij hebt me, jij redt me, jij kent me
But you've got me, you save me, you know me
En het kan me niet schelen
And I don't care
Al is iedereen tegen
Even if everybody's against us
Ik wil alleen wij tweeën
I only want the two of us
Ik heb jou en ik ken jou
I've got you and I know you
Ze kent mij niet van al mijn liedjes
She doesn't know me from all my songs
Ze kent mij niet van al mijn songs
She doesn't know me from all my tracks
Ze kent mijn liefde, mijn verdriet
She knows my love, my sadness
En 't is precies zo andersom
And it's exactly the other way around
Ze kent mij
She knows me
Ze kent mij als geen ander
She knows me like nobody else
Ze kent mij
She knows me
Ze kent mij als geen ander
She knows me like nobody else
Ze kent mij niet van al mijn liedjes
She doesn't know me from all my songs
Ze kent mij niet van al mijn songs
She doesn't know me from all my tracks
Ze kent mijn liefde, mijn verdriet
She knows my love, my sadness
En 't is precies zo andersom
And it's exactly the other way around
Ze kent mij
She knows me
Ze kent mij als geen ander
She knows me like nobody else
Ze kent mij
She knows me
Ze kent mij als geen ander
She knows me like nobody else
Ik ken jou
I know you

streken — ways / tricks / antics

Streken is a versatile Dutch word that can mean 'ways', 'tricks' or 'antics', often implying mischievous or characteristic behaviors that someone is known for, good or bad.

In the song, the line "Ik ken al je streken" ("I know all your tricks") shows a deep familiarity with someone, as if the singer has seen every one of their little habits and games and can no longer be surprised by them.

Ze Kent Mij (She Knows Me) is a heartfelt duet where Snelle and Yade Lauren celebrate the rare kind of love that looks past chart hits and shiny stages. The chorus repeats that their partner doesn’t know them from their songs – instead, they know their deepest feelings, their hidden flaws, and even their childish moods. It’s a playful reminder that fame can impress the world, yet the person who matters most is the one who has seen you at your worst and sticks around anyway.

The verses trade perspectives: Snelle admits she uses his weak spots but also sees his true potential, while Yade counters that she won’t let him go, even when life gets messy. Together they paint a vivid picture of two people who truly recognize each other’s highs and lows, turning mutual vulnerability into strength. The song is upbeat, catchy, and emotionally honest – perfect for anyone who believes real love starts where the spotlight ends.
