Hast

The speaker describes being asked a serious question and initially saying nothing. The repeated “you have me” sounds like a claim of emotional power or possession, but the repeated “No!” makes the speaker’s refusal unmistakable. The mood moves from tense uncertainty to forceful rejection, though the lyrics do not explain what happened between the two people.

The question about staying faithful “until death do you part” evokes traditional marriage vows. “For all days” and “in good times and bad” suggest a promise meant to last through every circumstance. The repeated questions make the scene feel like a public or formal exchange, while the short answer breaks sharply against that expectation.

The words “du hast” can be heard as “you have,” but they also sound like “du hasst,” meaning “you hate,” giving the refrain a possible double meaning in German. This may add a sense of hostility or hurt, though the lyrics do not settle on one clear explanation. The refusal could reject marriage, a particular relationship, or the promise being demanded; its certainty contrasts with the ambiguity of the speaker’s feelings.
