INNKEEPER |
|
Don Quixote de La Mancha, |
|
Having proved yourself this day |
|
In glorious and terrible combat, |
|
And by my authority as lord of this castle... |
|
I hereby dub thee knight! |
|
|
|
DON QUIXOTE |
|
But, your Lordship... |
|
|
|
INNKEEPER |
|
What's the matter? Didn't I do it right? |
|
|
|
DON QUIXOTE |
|
It's the customary to grant |
|
the new knight an added name. |
|
If Your Lordship could devise |
|
such a name for me...? |
|
|
|
INNKEEPER |
|
Hmmm. |
|
|
|
Hail, Knight of the Woeful Countenance, |
|
Knight of the Woeful Countenance! |
|
Wherever you go |
|
People will know |
|
Of the glorious deeds |
|
Of the Knight of the Woeful Countenance! |
|
|
|
Farewell and good cheer |
|
Oh my brave cavalier |
|
Ride onward to glorious strife. |
|
I swear when you're gone |
|
I'll remember you well |
|
For all of the rest of my life. |
|
|
|
Hail, Knight of the Woeful Countenance, |
|
Knight of the Woeful Countenance |
|
Fare to the foe, |
|
They will quail at the sight |
|
Of the Knight of the Woeful Countenance! |
|
Oh valorous Knight, |
|
Go and fight for the right, |
|
And battle all villains that be, |
|
But oh, when you do, |
|
What will happen to you |
|
Thank God I won't be there to see! |
|
|
|
ALDONZA, SANCHO, INNKEEPER |
|
Hail, Knight of the Woeful Countenance, |
|
Knight of the Woeful Countenance! |
|
Wherever you go |
|
People will know |
|
Of the glorious deeds |
|
Of the Knight of the Woeful Countenance! |
