    Édith Piaf

    No, I don’t regret none

    Not even one
    No, I don’t regret none
    Nor the good, I’ve had some
    Nor the bad, all the same I might add

    Not even one
    No, I don’t regret none
    They’re paid out, all wiped out and crossed out
    All the passed I tossed out

    With all my souvenirs
    I light up a fire
    My sour tears and my cheers
    I no longer require

    I wiped out my affairs
    and all of their wakes still
    Pushed for good down the stairs
    I restart from a nil

    Not even one
    No, I don’t regret none
    Nor the good, I’ve had some
    Nor the bad, all the same I might add

    Not even one
    No, I don’t regret none
    Cause my life, my delight
    from this night, with just you will take flight


    Non, je ne regrette rien

    Non, rien de rien
    Non, je ne regrette rien
    Ni le bien qu'on m'a fait
    Ni le mal; tout ça m'est bien égal !

    Non, rien de rien
    Non, je ne regrette rien
    C'est payé, balayé, oublié
    Je me fous du passé !

    Avec mes souvenirs
    J'ai allumé le feu
    Mes chagrins, mes plaisirs
    Je n'ai plus besoin d'eux !

    Balayées les amours
    Et tous leurs trémolos
    Balayés pour toujours
    Je repars à zéro

    Non, rien de rien
    Non, je ne regrette rien
    Ni le bien qu'on m'a fait
    Ni le mal; tout ça m'est bien égal !

    Non, rien de rien
    Non, je ne regrette rien
    Car ma vie, car mes joies
    Aujourd'hui, ça commence avec toi

    Piaf dedicated her recording of the song to the French Foreign Legion.At the time of the recording, France was engaged in a military conflict, the Algerian War (1954--1962), and the 1st REP (1st Foreign Parachute Regiment) — which backed a temporary putsch of 1961 by the French military against the civilian leadership of Algeria — adopted the song when their resistance was broken. The leadership of the Regiment was arrested and tried but the non-commissioned officers, corporals and Legionnaires were assigned to other Foreign Legion formations. They left the barracks singing the song, which has now become part of the French Foreign Legion heritage and is sung when they are on parade.

    Agree with you Trader, There is a memory in every song, I remember sailing between the islands of Trinidad and Tobago, And we had a little wireless in our cabin doing a balancing act on the round window and this was played I can remember it as if it was yesterday, Happy Days Regards Terry.
