[00:30.17](The ABC Café, where the students, led by Enjolras, meet to discuss their revolutionary plans)
[00:04.61]COMBEFERRE
[00:12.94]At Notre Dame the sections are prepared!
[00:14.65]FEUILLY
[00:15.01]At rue de Bac they’re straining at the leash!
[00:16.83]COURFEYRAC
[00:17.09]Students, workers, everyone
[00:18.86]There’s a river on the run
[00:20.49]Like the flowing of the tide
[00:22.36]Paris coming to our side!
[00:23.81]ENJORAS
[00:24.63]The time is near
[00:28.07]So near it’s stirring the blood in their veins!
[00:32.46]And yet beware
[00:35.98]Don’t let the wine go to your brains!
[00:41.20]For the army we fight is a dangerous foe
[00:44.22]With the men and the arms that we never can match
[00:47.15]It is easy to sit here and swat ‘em like flies
[00:50.04]But the national guard will be harder to catch.
[00:53.22]We need a sign
[00:55.74]To rally the people
[00:57.06]To call them to arms
[00:58.69]To bring them in line!
[01:01.90](Marius enters)
[01:03.27]Marius, you’re late.
[01:04.07]JOLY
[01:04.33]What’s wrong today?
[01:05.84]You look as if you’ve seen a ghost.
[01:07.42]GRANTAIRE
[01:07.71]Some wine and say what’s going on!
[01:10.65]MARIUS
[01:12.41]A ghost you say... a ghost maybe
[01:15.35]She was just like a ghost to me
[01:19.07]One minute there, and she was gone!
[01:23.27]GRANTAIRE
[01:25.45]I am agog!
[01:27.06]I am aghast!
[01:28.83]Is Marius in love at last?
[01:31.95]I’ve never heard him `ooh’ and `aah’
[01:38.52]You talk of battles to be won
[01:41.41]And here he comes like Don Ju-an
[01:44.29]It’s better than an o-per-a!
[01:50.31]ENJOLRAS
[02:01.73]It is time for us all
[02:03.41]To decide who we are
[02:07.76]Do we fight for the right
[02:09.22]To a night at the opera now?
[02:13.61]Have you asked of yourselves
[02:15.14]What’s the price you might pay?
[02:18.48]Is it simply a game
[02:20.04]For rich young boys to play?
[02:22.62]The color of the world
[02:25.08]Is changing day by day...
[02:29.78]Red - the blood of angry men!
[02:33.83]Black - the dark of ages past!
[02:38.01]Red - a world about to dawn!
[02:42.30]Black - the night that ends at last!
[02:48.56]MARIUS
[02:49.13]Had you been there tonight
[02:50.47]You might know how it feels
[02:54.52]To be struck to the bone
[02:56.27]In a moment of breathless delight!
[03:00.05]Had you been there tonight
[03:01.56]You might also have known
[03:05.76]How the world may be changed
[03:07.41]In just one burst of light!
[03:09.74]And what was right seems wrong
[03:12.82]And what was wrong seems right!
[03:16.05]GRANTAIRE
[03:17.05]Red...
[03:17.81]MARIUS
[03:18.16]I feel my soul on fire!
[03:20.38]GRANTAIRE
[03:21.04]Black...
[03:21.80]MARIUS
[03:22.34]My world if she’s not there!
[03:24.92]ALL
[03:25.42]Red...
[03:26.04]MARIUS
[03:26.64]The color of desire!
[03:28.45]ALL
[03:29.51]Black...
[03:30.47]MARIUS
[03:30.91]The color of despair!
[03:36.11]ENJOLRAS
[03:36.77]Marius, you’re no longer a child
[03:40.04]I do not doubt you mean it well
[03:41.20]But now there is a higher call.
[03:45.73]Who cares about your lonely soul?
[03:47.40]We strive toward a larger goal
[03:50.02]Our little lives don’t count at all!
[03:53.35]ALL
[03:53.75]Red - the blood of angry men!
[03:58.04]Black - the dark of ages past!
[04:02.06]Red - a world about to dawn!
[04:06.12]Black - the night that ends at last!
[04:28.93]ENJOLRAS
[04:30.33]Well, Courfeyrac, do we have all the guns?
[04:32.25]Feuilly, Combeferre, our time is running short.
[04:34.46]Grantaire, put the bottle down!
[04:36.12]Do we have the guns we need?
[04:37.38]GRANTAIRE
[04:37.69]Give me brandy on my breath
[04:39.35]And I’ll breathe them all to death!
[04:40.96]COURFEYRAC
[04:41.31]In St. Antoine they’re with us to a man!
[04:42.97]COMBEFERRE
[04:43.18]In Notre Dame they’re tearing up the stones!
[04:44.59]FEUILLY
[04:45.34]Twenty rifles good as new!
[04:45.90](Gavroche rushes in shouting)
[04:46.81]GAVROCHE
[04:47.01]Listen!
[04:48.07]JOLY
[04:47.46]Twenty rounds for every man!
[04:48.20]GAVROCHE
[04:48.72]Listen to me!
[04:49.00]JEAN PROUVAIRE
[04:49.14]Double that in Port St. Cloud!
[04:49.98]LESGLES
[04:50.46]Seven guns in St. Martin!
[04:50.50]GAVROCHE
[04:50.59]Listen everybody!
[04:54.54]General Lamarque is dead!
[05:01.66]ENJOLRAS
[05:02.93]Lamarque is dead.
[05:08.38]Lamarque! His death is the hour of fate.
[05:13.11]The people’s man.
[05:16.14]His death is the sign we await!
[05:21.94]On his funeral day they will honor his name.
[05:24.66]It’s a rallying cry that will reach every ear!
[05:27.43]In the death of Lamarque we will kindle the flame
[05:30.15]They will see that the day of salvation is near!
[05:33.18]The time is near!
[05:34.84]Let us welcome it gladly with courage and cheer
[05:37.65]Let us take to the streets with no doubt in our hearts
[05:40.68]But a jubilant shout
[05:42.23]They will come one and all
[05:44.96]They will come when we call!
