Ici, Londres. Les Français parlent aux Français. This is
London. The French speak to the French. Here is the news
The Vichy government today announced that it will introduce new
Regulations prohibiting Jews from working freely in any capacity
Without authority. Jews from the age of six will also be
Obliged to wear, at all times, a distinctive sign of their race
These rules go well beyond the demands of the German invaders
Time was when there were cafés ablaze with lights
Where is that radiance now?
We knew then
How we would set the world to rights
Never that innocence now
Never such radiance now
Never such innocence
Lost and gone
Gone is the gift of being young
Never those memories now
Lost and gone
Lost are the songs we could have sung
Where are those melodies now?
Never those melodies now
Never those memories
Marguerite, how can I wait another day?
Marguerite, my life is just a day away
Marguerite, now you are here, I'm here to stay
Marguerite, this is our time
Marguerite, this is our one and only time
Marguerite, this is our day
Marguerite, this is our
Time was when this was a city in its prime
Look at it, what it became
Not so long ago
Who knew then Paris would have so much to hide?
Something in Paris has died
Paris is dying of shame
