Kann denn liebe Sünde sein by Eisbrecher English Lyrics

Eisbrecher owns the song. I just wrote this translation and made the video. For a playlist of all the English Lyric videos I've made for Eisbrecher, check here:    • Selections from Eisbrecher - English Trans...   A note – the ‘denn’ in ‘Kann denn Liebe Sünde sein‘ is an emphasis word that doesn’t translate and just gives the sentence a sort of emphatic tone. It would literally just be translated a ‘can love be (a) sin’ except said with feeling. I took the liberty of saying ‘really now’ to get across the self-righteous exasperated tone I hear in this song, mostly to avoid having ‘can’ or ‘can love’ standing on its own in the video when the lyrics separate a single ‘kann denn’. This song is incredibly disturbing in my opinion. Hopefully I captured its energy. Ich hab dich heimlich angesehn Du bist so jung und wunderschön Ich hab dir einen Kuss vermacht Dann hab ich dich zu Bett gebracht Komm wehr dich nicht Kleine so sehr wie dich Hab ich noch keine begehrt Kann denn Kann denn Liebe Sünde sein Nein ich frag dich Kann denn liebe Sünde sein Nein ich frag dich nicht noch mal Ich hab dich lautlos abgelegt Du bist so stumm und unbewegt Du hast mich an die Wand gedrängt Dir mein Verlangen aufgezwängt I secretly watched you You are so young and beautiful I bequeathed a kiss to you Then I brought you to bed Come on, don’t struggle Little one, I’ve never coveted Anyone as much as you (Alt take: Little one, I’ve not yet coveted anyone as much as I covet you. Note “kleine” can mean “little one/little girl” when referring to a small child, but it can also be used when talking about an adult woman “that girl/that chick”. I chose little one because I’ve never heard an adult woman addressed as “kleine” without some level of condescension (think “hey, cutie”) or joking (though I suppose it doesn’t mean it can’t be used as a term of endearment). My interpretation of this song has “little girl/little one” make more sense but fee free to switch it to “girl” if you want to age up the person he’a addressing a bit) Can Can love be a sin? No I ask you Can love be a sin No, I won’t ask you again I soundlessly laid you down You are so mute and motionless You’ve driven me against the wall You forced my desire upon yourself
