[00:00.156]It's knowing what they want of me that scares me
[00:05.485]It's knowing, having followed, I must lead
[00:10.657]It's knowing that each person there compares me
[00:15.568]To those in my past whom I now succeed
[00:21.133]But how can whatever I do for them now be enough?
[00:29.100]Be enough
[00:35.213]Aida! Aida!
[00:39.471]All we ask of you
[00:42.866]Is a lifetime of service, wisdom, courage
[00:47.542]To ask more would be selfish, but nothing less will do
[00:54.439]Aida! Aida!
[01:06.011]Your robe should be golden, your robe should be perfect
[01:10.269]Instead of this ragged concoction of thread
[01:14.083]But may you be moved by its desperate beauty
[01:17.714]To give us new life, for we'd rather be dead
[01:21.423]Then live in the squalor and shame of the slave
[01:25.342]To the dance!
[01:26.987]To the dance!
[01:30.775]Aida! Aida!
[01:35.268]All we ask of you
[01:38.455]Is a lifetime of service, wisdom, courage
[01:42.896]To ask more would be selfish, but nothing less will do
[01:49.583]Aida! Aida!
[01:56.218]
[02:24.561]Aida...!
[02:27.461]
[02:49.325]Aida! Aida!
[02:52.460]Aida! Aida!
[02:55.725]Aida!
[02:58.181]
[03:21.142]I know expectations are wild and almost
[03:24.747]Beyond my fulfillment, but they won't hear
[03:28.222]A word of a doubt or see signs of a weakness
[03:31.722]My nigh-on-impossible duty is clear
[03:35.040]And if I can rekindle our ancestors' dreams, it's enough
[03:39.872]It's enough
[03:41.361]It's enough-
[03:43.190]Aida! Aida! Aida!
[03:45.149]Aida! Aida! Aida!
[03:49.355]It's enough!
[03:54.501]Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah...
