Ich Bereue Nichts Lyrics in English Silbermond

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Ich Bereue Nichts by Silbermond from German to English.
I hold your hand
As long as I can
And call the final round
We both knew it
Yet pushed it aside till the end
That nobody can beat time
Maybe it'd be better if it had never happened
But "maybe" is such a cowardly word
We've always fought
And never gave away a single grain of sand
And now we stand here
And I regret nothing
Not a single step
Not a single moment of it
Even if it's lost
Even if it's not enough for us
Still, nothing was for nothing
I regret none of it
None of it
Time's running against us
The last grain falls silent
And the round is slowly over
We built on sand
That cost us a lot of strength
Yet every bit of it was worth it to me
And I thank you for every day by your side
'Cause I regret nothing
Not a single step
Not a single moment of it
Even if it's lost
Even if it's not enough for us
Still, nothing was for nothing
Nothing in vain
ouh
I don't regret a wrong word
Not a single moment
I won't take a single step back
'Cause I regret nothing
ouh
I regret nothing
I regret nothing
None of it
I regret nothing

SONG MEANING

Imagine standing next to someone you love, clutching their hand while the very last grain of sand slips through an hourglass. Ich Bereue Nichts ("I Regret Nothing") captures that intense, bittersweet moment when you know a chapter is closing yet choose to celebrate every second that led there. Silbermond’s singer, Stefanie, turns the looming end into a victory lap: the pair fought for their bond, spent no grain of sand carelessly, and now refuse to mourn lost time. The chorus pounds home a fearless mantra – “I regret nothing, not one step, not one heartbeat.”

In just a few lines, the song transforms regret into gratitude. Yes, they built their castle on sand and yes, it is crumbling, but each day together was still “worth it.” This defiant gratitude gives the track its uplifting power, reminding us that love, effort, and even mistakes are never wasted. Whether you’re practicing German or seeking a life-affirming anthem, Ich Bereue Nichts invites you to sing out loud, cherish your own story, and walk forward with zero regrets.
