[00:52.50] Morning in Paris The city awakes
[00:55.50] To the bells of Notre Dame
[00:59.00] The fisherman fishes The baker man bakes
[01:02.50] To the bells of Notre Dame
[01:06.00] To the big bells as loud as the thunder
[01:09.00] To the little bells soft as a psalm
[01:13.00] And some say the soul of the city's the toll
[01:16.00] Of the bells
[01:20.00] The bells of Notre Dame
[01:27.00] Listen. They're beautiful, no?
[01:30.00] So many colors of sound, so many changing moods.
[01:34.00] Because you know they do not ring all by themselves.
[01:37.00] They don't? - No, you silly boy.
[01:39.00] Up there, high, high in the dark bell tower,
[01:43.00] lives the mysterious bell ringer.
[01:46.00] Who is this creature? - Who?
[01:48.00] What is he? - What?
[01:49.50] How did he come to be there? - How?
[01:52.00] Hush. Clopin will tell you. - Ow!
[01:56.00] It is a tale, a tale of a man...
[01:59.00] and a monster.
[02:02.00] Dark was the night when our tale was begun
[02:05.00] On the docks near Notre Dame - Shut it up, will you?
[02:08.50] We'll be spotted! - Hush, little one.
[02:11.00] Four frightened Gypsies slid silently under
[02:14.00] The docks near Notre Dame
[02:16.50] Four guilders for safe passage into Paris.
[02:18.50] A trap had been laid for the Gypsies
[02:21.50] And they gazed up in fear and alarm
[02:25.00] At a figure whose clutches
[02:26.50] Were iron as much as the bells - Judge Claude Frollo!
[02:31.00] The bells
[02:32.50] Of Notre Dame - Kyrie eleison
[02:38.50] Judge Claude Frollo longed to purge the world of vice and sin
[02:44.00] Kyrie eleison
[02:47.00] And he saw corruption
[02:49.00] Everywhere except within
[02:53.00] Bring these Gypsy vermin to the Palace of Justice.
[02:56.00] You there! What are you hiding?
[02:57.50] Stolen goods, no doubt. Take them from her.
[03:01.00] She ran.
[03:03.00] Dies irae Dies irae
[03:06.50] Dies illa Dies illa
[03:10.00] Solvet saeclum in favilla
[03:13.00] Aah!
[03:16.00] Quando tremor est futurus
[03:21.00] Quando judex est venturus
[03:23.50] Sanctuary! Please, give us sanctuary!
[03:27.00] Quando tremor est futurus
[03:34.00] Dies irae
[03:37.00] A baby?
[03:40.50] A monster!
[03:42.00] Solvet saeclum in favilla
[03:46.00] Dies irae Dies irae
[03:57.00] Stop! - ...cried the Archdeacon.
[04:00.00] This is an unholy demon. I'm sending it back to hell, where it belongs.
[04:05.00] See, there, the innocent blood you have spilt
[04:08.00] On the steps of Notre Dame
[04:10.00] I am guiltless. She ran. I pursued.
[04:13.00] Now you would add this child's blood to your guilt
[04:16.00] On the steps of Notre Dame - My conscience is clear.
[04:19.50] You can lie to yourself and your minions
[04:22.50] You can claim that you haven't a qualm
[04:26.00] But you never can run from
[04:28.00] Nor hide what you've done from the eyes
[04:32.50] The very eyes
[04:34.50] Of Notre Dame
[04:38.00] Kyrie eleison
[04:40.00] And for one time in his life
[04:43.00] Of power and control
[04:46.00] Kyrie eleison
[04:48.00] Frollo felt a twinge of fear for his immortal soul
[04:55.00] What must I do? - Care for the child and raise it as your own.
[04:59.00] What? I am to be saddled with this misshapen--
[05:03.50] Very well. But let him live with you in your church.
[05:07.00] Live here? Where? - Anywhere.
[05:11.00] Just so he's kept locked away where no one else can see
[05:15.00] The bell tower, perhaps.
[05:17.00] And who knows? Our Lord works in mysterious ways.
[05:22.00] Even this foul creature may yet prove one day to be
[05:27.00] Of use to me
[05:31.00] And Frollo gave the child a cruel name,
[05:34.50] a name that means, "half-formed."
[05:37.50] Quasimodo.
[05:40.00] Now here is a riddle to guess if you can
[05:44.50] Sing the bells of Notre Dame
[05:48.00] Who is the monster And who is the man
[05:53.00] Sing the bells, bells bells, bells
[05:57.00] Bells, bells bells, bells
[06:01.00] Bells of Notre Dame
