“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
Balayé les amours avec leurs trémolos
Balayé pour toujours
Je reparts 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”
-Non, Je Ne Regrette Rien, Edith Piaf, Composed by Charles Dumont, Lyrics by Michel Vaucaire, Written in 1965 and Released in 1960
English Translation:
“No, nothing at all,
No, I regret nothing
Not the good things they did to me
Nor the bad — may as well be the same to me!
No, nothing at all,
No, I regret nothing.
It’s bought and paid for, wiped away, forgotten,
I don’t give a damn about the past!
With my memories
I’ve lit up the fire
Of my troubles, my pleasures,
I don’t need them anymore!
Wiped away the romances
And all their instabilities
Swept away for eternity
I restart at zero
No, nothing at all,
No, I regret nothing
Not the good things they did to me
Nor the bad — may as well be the same to me!
No, nothing at all,
No, I regret nothing
Because of my life, because of my joys
Today, I begin with you”
Here is my submission for Kaitlyn’s aka KatyGorl’s Claim a PPG Pairing Month. What better for me to kick this off than with my most beloved RRB/PPG OTP of all time, Brick x Buttercup aka Brickercup. By the way, the inscriptions on their shirts are, of course, in French. The translation on Brick’s shirt is “I love her with all of my heart, my mind, and my soul”, whilst Buttercup’s shirt inscription is translated as “He is the light to my vessel”. It should be crystal clear who they are referring to. Moreover, as you can tell, these normally hotheaded fighters are having such a cute and adorable moment together.
Because I was feeling French at this point, I thought that the chanson “Non, je ne regrette rien” would fit these two hot and spicy lovebirds to a T. This is because this song is translated as “No, I don’t regret anything”, which I can say with confidence is their motto. Nothing is ever going to shake nor break these two, in spite of all the horrible times and the good times, and they just keep soldiering on in everything they do.
Without further ado, I also hope you enjoy La Grande Madame Edith Piaf’s stirring rendition of this powerful song, which speaks volumes, as you also take a gander at this piece of Brickercup fanart. I’m sure this will also leave some tears in your eyes. I certainly had that experience, as I first listened to this song as a sixteen-year-old boy alongside my late maternal grandma when we watched La Mome starring Marion Cotillard as Edith Piaf. Prenez plaisir mes amis.
I hope you all enjoyed this and as we say in French, a tout a l’heure mes amis.
Brick and Buttercup from The Powerpuff Girls belong to Craig McCracken and Cartoon Network.
