Guten Morgen Freiheit Lyrics in English Yvonne Catterfeld

Home / Lyrics Translation / Yvonne Catterfeld / Guten Morgen Freiheit

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Guten Morgen Freiheit by Yvonne Catterfeld from German to English.

I've filed my questions away for meaning

And on the binder's spine it says across, who I am not

I've pasted all the old photos

By time and face, relevant or not

I've tidied up with old things

And swept all worries under the rug

And I've polished the scratches on my soul

So my reflection shows me that I'm alive

Good morning freedom

It feels so good to see you again

Good morning freedom

Come on in, you don't have to stand outside

Hey

We're opening all the windows

Letting the sun in and the everyday out

Good morning freedom

Just feel at home

I've patched up all the holes in my pockets

And poured out all the half-full, half-empty glasses

Filled them up to the top with happiness

Cleaned my crown and straightened it again

Locked doubts in the closet

Screwed hope tightly together

I've really knocked my heart clean

And freed it from all the stains and dust

Good morning freedom

It feels so good to see you again

Good morning freedom

Come on in, you don't have to stand outside

Hey

We're opening all the windows

Letting the sun in and the everyday out

Good morning freedom

Just feel at home

And recently I rearranged

Laid everything to waste and ashes again

Some scratches you can never get rid of

I'm sorry, that can happen when you live

Good morning freedom

It feels so good to see you again

Good morning freedom

Come on in, you don't have to stand outside

Hey

We're opening all the windows

Letting the sun in and the everyday out

Good morning freedom

Just feel at home

SONG MEANING

Guten Morgen Freiheit feels like the musical equivalent of throwing open every window in your house after a long winter. Yvonne Catterfeld walks us through a playful spring-clean of the soul: she files away old questions, pastes forgotten photos into albums, patches the holes in her pockets, and tips out every half-empty glass before refilling it to the brim with happiness. Each small chore is really a metaphor for shaking off doubts, polishing the scars on the heart, and making room for a bright new start.

With sunshine pouring in and everyday worries swept out, the chorus greets freedom like a long-lost friend at the door: “Guten Morgen, Freiheit – come on in, make yourself at home!” The song celebrates self-care, hope, and the courage to accept a few stubborn scratches that life leaves behind. It is an energetic reminder that true freedom begins inside, the moment you decide to clean up, look forward, and let the light back in.
