Non, Je Ne Regrette Rien

Non, Je Ne Regrette Rien
Édith Piaf
***
I know your leaving is too long overdue
For far too long I’ve had nothing new to show to you
through dry eyes I watched your plane
Fade off west of the moon
And it felt so strange to walk away alone
No regrets no tears goodbye
Don’t want you back we’d only cry again
Say goodbye a-gain
The hours that were yours echo like empty rooms
The thoughts we used to share I now keep alone
I woke last night and spoke your name
Not thinking you were gone
And it felt so strange to lie awake alone
No regrets no tears goodbye
Don’t want you back we’d only cry again
Say goodbye a-gain
Our friends have tried to turn my nights to day
Strange faces in your place can’t keep the ghosts away
Just behind the darkest hour just before dawn
It still feels so strange to lead my life alone
No regrets no tears goodbye
Don’t want you back we’d only cry again
Say goodbye a-gain

Time Slice (II)

From among hundreds of masts (M.Eminescu)

From among hundreds of masts
Leaving shores and banks and bays,
Are there many to be lost
Broken by the winds and waves?
From among birds of passage,
Flying over lands and seas,
Are there many to be drowned
By the waves and by the sea?
If you chase away your luck
Or ideals, all you have,
You are followed everywhere
By the winds and by the waves.
Undeciphered is the thought
That keeps passing through your chants
As they fly, they murmur it
All these winds and all these waves.

Largo

08 Saturday Apr 2017

„The music made every atom ring …
Longing for you, and for another world,
Longing …
A nameless misery
Hung
Over man …
All pondered their lives,
Their vanishing.
The music sentimentalized
Exhaustingly, –
Longing for you, and for another world,
Longing …
The music made every atom ring.” – George Bacovia
