EPONINE'Parnasse, what are you doing |
|
So far out of our patch? |
|
MONTPARNAS |
|
SEThis house, we're going to do it |
|
Rich man, plenty of scratch |
|
You remember he's the one |
|
Who got away the other day |
|
Got a number on his chest |
|
Perhaps a fortune put away! |
|
EPONINEOh |
|
Lord, somebody help me! |
|
Dear God, what'll |
|
I do?He'll think this is an ambush |
|
He'll think |
|
I'm in it too! |
|
What'll I do, what'll |
|
I say?I've got to warn them here |
|
I've got to find a way.(Thenardier arrives with the rest of his gang) |
|
THENARDIER |
|
This is his lair |
|
I've seen the old fox around |
|
He keeps himself to himself |
|
He's staying close to the ground |
|
I smell profit here! |
|
Ten years ago |
|
He came and paid for |
|
CosetteI let her go for a song |
|
It's time we settled the debt |
|
This'll cost him dear |
|
BRUJONWhat do |
|
I careWho you should rob? |
|
Gimme me my share |
|
Finish the job! |
|
THENARDIER |
|
You shut your mouth |
|
Give me your hand |
|
BRUJON(Catching sight of Eponine) |
|
What have we here? |
|
THENARDIER(Not recognizing her) |
|
Who is this hussy? |
|
BABETIt's your brat |
|
EponineDon't you know your own kid |
|
Why's she hanging about you? |
|
THENARDIER |
|
Eponine, get on home |
|
You're not needed in this |
|
We're enough here without you |
|
EPONINEI know this house |
|
I tell you there's nothing here for you |
|
Just the old man and the girl |
|
They live ordinary lives |
|
THENARDIER |
|
Don't interfere |
|
You've got some gall |
|
Take care, young miss, |
|
You've got a lot to say! |
|
BRUJONShe's going soft |
|
CLAQUESOUS |
|
Happens to all |
|
MONTPARNAS |
|
SEGo home, ' |
|
Ponine,Go home, you're in the way |
|
EPONINEI'm gonna scream, |
|
I'm gonna warn them here. |
|
THENARDIER |
|
One little scream and you'll regret it for a year. |
|
CLAQUESOUS |
|
What a palaver |
|
What an absolute treat |
|
To watch a cat and it's father |
|
Pick a bone in the street |
|
BRUJONNot a sound out of you! |
|
EPONINEWell |
|
I told you |
|
I'd do it, told you |
|
I'd do it...(She screams) |
|
THENARDIER |
|
You wait my girl, you'll rue this night |
|
I'll make you scream, you'll scream all right |
|
Leave her to me, don't wait around |
|
Make for the sewers, go underground!(The gang scatters. Marius and Cosette run back into the gardenAnd he hurriedly introduces Eponine before she takes off) |
|
MARIUSIt was your cry sent them away |
|
Once more ' |
|
Ponine saving the day |
|
Dearest Cosette - my friend ' |
|
PonineBrought me to you, showed me the way! |
|
Someone is near |
|
Let's not be seen |
|
Somebody's here!(Marius leaves quickly as Valjean enters) |
|
VALJEANMy |
|
God, Cosette! |
|
I heard a cry in the dark |
|
I heard the shout of angry voices in the street. |
|
COSETTEThat was my cry you heard, |
|
Papa,I was afraid of what they'd do. |
|
They ran away when they heard my cry. |
|
VALJEANCosette, my child, what will become of you? |
|
COSETTEThree men |
|
I saw beyond the wall |
|
Three men in shadow moving fast |
|
JAVERTThis is a warning to us all |
|
These are the shadows of the past |
|
Must be Javert! |
|
He's found my cover at last! |
|
I've got to get |
|
Cosette away |
|
Before they return! |
|
We must get away from shadows |
|
They will never let us be |
|
Tomorrow to |
|
Calais...And then a ship across the sea! |
|
Hurry, Cosette, prepare to leave and say no more, |
|
Tomorrow we'll away! |
|
Hurry, Cosette, it's time to close another door |
|
And live another day! |
