Rien n'empêche
Légion Etrangère
Nothing Stops
From the mud of the rice fields to the plateaus of Tonkin
Honor, Loyalty as the only refrain
Fire, water, and earth as the only universe
He advances and fights, the legionnaire sapper,
Breaking all assaults when the gunfire explodes
On this Indo land where so many old soldiers rest.
In the cold, the turmoil, from death to life
Nothing stops the second foreign genius. (repeat)
Today, memory sounds the recall.
We, legionnaires of the 2nd, answer the call.
Opening, paving the way is for the regiment
To pass at all costs, that's our oath
Faith, courage, and valor as the only inheritance
No obstacle and no man to stop us.
Chorus
On the peaks of the Alps when the battle echoes
From the crash of thunder and the thunderstorm
Forward white kepis, to us the vast spaces.
Everywhere, every time, we must face it.
Taking on challenges, that's our ambition.
Never failing, it's our tradition.
Chorus
