Home / Lyrics Translation / Glasperlenspiel / Royals & Kings

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Royals & Kings by Glasperlenspiel from German to English.

A house with a garden, a new car

On TV I see people who already have everything

I mark six numbers, lose a bet

And think of all the nice things I'd love to have

Sometimes at night I dream of a yacht

Fly far, far away in my own jet

But if I'm honest, I don't need that

Because it'd all be worthless without you

I celebrate us just the way we are

We're not royals or kings

But we're free instead, we're never alone

Who needs a Rolls-Royce or a palace like Versailles?

We're just the way we are

We're not royals or kings

Our grandmas aren't queens, they have to overdraw accounts

But I think everything's alright

Exactly the way we are

You're what counts, we even dance in the rain

Every field of ashes is a Garden of Eden with you

All the money in the world is like mist and smoke

It's there then it disappears, it doesn't stop us

But if I'm honest, I don't need that

Because it'd all be worthless without you

I celebrate us just the way we are

We're not royals or kings

But we're free instead, we're never alone

Who needs a Rolls-Royce or a palace like Versailles?

We're just the way we are

We're not royals or kings

Our grandmas aren't queens, they have to overdraw accounts

But I think everything's alright

Exactly the way we are

I celebrate us just the way we are

Everybody asks where I'm headed

But I celebrate myself just the way I am

Today the business runs by itself

Still not rich, but I got the million-dollar smile

Million-dollar smile, nothing but sunshine

Because even the bank manager welcomes me

Million-dollar smile, hits on Spotify

To drive a Rolls-Royce, you don't have to be a royal

I celebrate us just the way we are

We're not royals or kings

But we're free instead, we're never alone

Who needs a Rolls-Royce or a palace like Versailles?

We're just the way we are

We're not royals or kings

Our grandmas aren't queens, they have to overdraw accounts

But I think everything's alright

I celebrate us just the way we are

Exactly the way we are

I celebrate us just the way we are

Exactly the way we are

SONG MEANING

Royals & Kings flips the usual pop-star daydream on its head. Glasperlenspiel and Summer Cem start by picturing yachts, private jets, and TV lifestyles, then quickly admit that those glittery prizes feel empty without the people who truly matter. The chorus cheers for everyday freedom: we are not royals or kings, our grandmas are not queens, yet we are richer than any crown because we have each other.

Under its bright electro-pop groove, the track delivers a feel-good lesson in self-worth. It urges us to dance in the rain, wear a million-dollar smile, and remember that love, friendship, and authenticity outshine every Rolls-Royce or Versailles-size mansion. "Royals & Kings" is a joyful anthem that crowns ordinary life as the real luxury.
