Sir Phoebus de Chateaupers
capit?n de los arqueros del Rey
Te convoco a ahuyentar
todos estos forajidos.
Por todos los medios, debemos
detener esta horda de extra?os
que disturban la paz
De los ciudadanos del pa?s
por tus ?rdenes mi Lord Archidiacre
En el nombre de Dios matar?
y perseguir? de sus ojos
Todos estos patanes sin futuro
De d?nde eres, extra?o encantador?
Hija de las estrellas de la tierra
Ave justa del para?so
D?nde est?s?
Gitana
Nadie conoce mi tierra
Gitana
Soy un hijo de la carretera
Gitana, gitana
D?nde estar? ma?ana?
Gitana, gitana
Est? escrito en la palma de mi mano
Mi madre me cont? de Espa?a
Como si fuera su casa
Sobre los bandidos de la colina
En las colinas de Andaluc?a
En las colinas de Andaluc?a
Mi padre muri?, mi madre tambi?n
Paris es mi casa
Pero cuando sue?o con el mar
me traslado muy lejos
a las colinas de Andaluc?a
Gitana
Nadie conoce mi tierra
Gitana
Soy hijo de la carretera
Gitana, gitana
Donde estar? ma?ana
Gitana, gitana
Est? escrito en la palma de mi mano
Mi infancia pas?
Descalzo en las colinas de Provence
Para los gitanos el camino es largo
El camino es largo
Y seguir? caminando
M?s all? de los caminos de Francia
Los caminar? hasta
el final de la tierra
Hasta el final de la Tierra
Un r?o andalucino
corre en mi sangre
corre en mis venas
Acaso los cielos de Andaluc?a
valen
volver?
Gitana
Nadie conoce mi tierra
Gitana
Soy un hijo de la carretera
Gitana, gitana
D?nde estar? ma?ana?
Gitana, gitana
Est? escrito en la palma de mi mano
Est? escrito en la palma de mi mano
T? sabes, Esmeralda
Ya no eres una ni?a
Y a veces te veo
Con ojos diferentes
S?lo ten?as ocho a?os
cuando tu madre se fue
tomada por la muerte
a su casa en Andaluc?a
Ella te conf?o a mi
Y con cuidado
he velado por ti
hasta hoy.
T? sabes, Esmeralda
Los hombres son malvados.
Ten cuidado cuando corres
en campos o calles
Me entiendes?
Est?s por descubrir amor
Nada es como antes.
Mis catorce veranos son para t?.
Este collar de diamantes es para mi.
Si tus palabras y promesas fueran mentira
No las creer?a
Tu coraz?n de doncella
es m?o
Tus ojos de paloma son para m?
Las estrellas brillan en los cielos
Menos brillantes que estos ojos
?l al que mi coraz?n desea
Es un caballero justo
Que no sabe
los campos de mi amor
Si no lo supiera
Puedo verlo en tus ojos
Quien gane tu amor
Ser? un hombre con suerte
Det?n tu b?squeda
El amor est? aqu?
Aqu? para siempre
As? es.
El d?a ser? alegre, el d?a
en que nos casemos
Todo el oro que todav?a yace en la profundidad
Debajo de la tierra en venas dormidas
Qu? usar? para vestir tu cuerpo
Tu cuerpo que me dar?
Todas esas l?neas amantes
todas esas canciones de deseo
mejor que cualquer juglar
me cantar?s
Det?n tu b?squeda
El amor est? aqu?
Aqu? para siempre
As? es
El d?a en que nos casemos,
el d?a
en que nos casemos
Det?n tu b?squeda
El amor est? aqu?
Aqu? para siempre
As? es
El d?a en que nos casemos,
el d?a
en que nos casemos
El d?a en que nos casemos,
el d?a
en que nos casemos
cuando nos casemos

?Me amar?s,

Pero a ti no te preocupa
Esmeralda
Oh! No podr?a preocuparte menos
Que me hayan coronado
El Papa de los Tontos
Peque?as ni?as
Cantando rondos
Burl?ndose de Quasimodo
El jorobado.
?C?mo te hace sentir?
Soy tan feo?
Odio a los padres que me dieron la vida
y me abandonaron sin amor
?Me amar?s,
Esmeralda?
?Me amar?s?
Pero no te interesa
Esmeralda
Oh! No podr?a interesarte menos

Atento!
esta chica no es de aqu?.
Es una gitana.
Una bruja
Es una perra
una gata de la calle
An animal on the prowl
barefoot and homeless
Mortal sin incarnate
She ought to be imprisoned
To stop this pillage
Of the hearts and souls
of the children of Notre Dame
Tonight we'll chase her
in the alleys
Tonight we'll take her away
We'll lock her in the tower
And teach her
The only true religion
Of Jesus and The Holy Mother
You can ask of me
anything
And l will do it for you
Anything you like
you know
Anything at all
l will do it for you
l will do it for you
You who took me in
Adopted and fed me
Me, the orphan
The child abandoned
By parents who were shamed
To have brought into this world
A monster
You who watched me grow
You who watched me suffer
You who offered protection
From this cruel world
You gave me my existence
By naming me ringer
Of bells
You taught me to speak
To read and to write
But l can't read
Your true feelings
l belong to you
to the depths of my soul
Like the deepest love of a dog
For his master
l belong to you
to the depths of my soul
Ibelongtoyou
tothetoofmygod
Like the deepest love of a dog
For his master
The gates of Paris
Are closed at dusk
When nighttime's shrieks
And laughter in the dark
and nocturnal desires reign
Nights where every vice
are satisfied
ln the heat of Paris
A showplace of lust
On the Pont-au-Change tonight
An angel l did meet
That smiled at me
Then disappeared
On the streets of Paris
l followed her and lost her
Pursued her into the night
lnto all the laughter
and carnal desire
Nights where every vice
is satisfied
ln the heat of Paris
A showplace of lust
The gates of Paris
Are closed at dusk
When nightime's crimes
And laughter in the dark
And nocturnal desires reign
l am the captain
ln charge of the peace
Of all citizens
Men and women alike
Allow me to escort you
Outside the city gates
Where the gipsies live
Men and women alike
Go your way
You've clearly made a mistake
Esmeralda,
good Sir, is not a soldier's girl
At dusk tomorrow
Tomorrow's end of day
l'll be there to see you
ln ''The Valley of Love Caberet''
ln ''The Valley of Love Caberet''
Here we are, brothers all
ln misery and joy
Here there is no heaven or hell
No heaven or hell
Here we're just like worms
Worms in the rotten earth
Wine and blood share the same color
Here in the den of thieves

Prostitutes dance with hoods
Here in the den of thieves

Beggers and bandits dance alike
Here in the den of thieves

We're all gallows' birds
Here in the den of thieves

We're all the same breed
Of the homeless seed
You won't find here
a nation or creed
No nation or creed
Our rags, our flags
The color of my skin next to yours
Gipsies and villains
sing the same song
Here in the den of thieves
here in the den of thieves
We're all on the lam
Here in the den of thieves

Thieves and killers drink
from the same cup
Here in the den of thieves

As we are all outlaws
Here in the den of thieves

Gringoire the Bard
You will hang
Convicted
of trespassing
Upon our sacred ground
Here in the den of thieves
Trespassing on our sacred ground
Trespassing on our sacred ground
here in the den of thieves
Unless a woman
Takes you for her husband
Be aware
l say to you
The poets of France
Are only fit to hang
The poets of France
The poets of France

And you my beauty
My lovely Esmeralda
Will you take as husband
This worthless minstrel?
This worthless minstrel?
lf he's free, l'll take him
He's yours
as spouse but not as a lover
Wine and blood share the same color
Here in the den of thieves

Beggers and bandits dance alike

He's the prince of Paris's streets!

My nymph, my muse, my lady
You, who can read and write
You, the poet, do you know
What Phoebus means?
By Jupiter
who on this earth
Dares to go by this name?
He's the one
for whom my heart beats
lf l recall
my latin
The word Phoebus means sun
Phoebus means sun
He's bright as the sun

Deep inside
Stronger than myself
He's bright as the sun
He's a prince, the son of a king
Of a king......l think
He's bright as the sun
He's a rascal, a soldier
When he holds me tight
l want to run away, but l can't
He's bright as the sun
He's a rascal, a soldier
A soldier of the king
He's bright as the sun
My wonder, my man
He'll take me in his arms
And love me all his life
He's bright as the sun
My wonder, my man
He's bright as the sun
Bright
As the sun

Perhaps a little less

Who is this girl
who dances
Her dance of shame
before the Notre Dame?
The girl is my wife
Given to me
By the King of the gipsies
Did you touch her
Servant of Satan?
l wouldn't dare
And l forbid you
l would like to show you
An inscription here engraved
On a stone beyond
The Gallery of Kings
What does it mean-
this word ''Anarkia''?
You're a man posessed
The Greek word ''Anarkia''
signifies ''Fate''
ls that not Quasimodo
That they're taking away?
He's got himself arrested, the fool
And only God knows why
Hunchback! Rapist! One-eyed & lame!
Damned ringer of the bells
Pray for him, the poor sinner
Have mercy on him, good Lord
Mercy
for poor Quasimodo
Who carries on his back
All the world's woes
And asks you only
for a drop of water
Have mercy, public
for this servant of the Lord
A drop of water only
For Quasimodo
l'm thirsty!
Give me a drop to drink!
l'm thirsty!
l'm thirsty!
Give me something to drink!
Beauty
Beauty
Beauty
lt seems a word invented for her
When she dances, revealing her body
Like a bird
spreads its wings to fly
l feel the devil
take me by the feet
My eyes gazed
under her gipsy dress
What shall l pray to Mary for?
Who
Will cast the first stone at her?
He who does not deserve to live
O Satan! Oh! Let me just once
Pass my fingers through her hair
Beauty
ls she the devil incarnate
Leading me from the Eternal Lord
Who has bewitched me
with carnal desire
To turn me from heaven above?
She carries inside the original sin
Am l a criminal if l desire her?
She
Who all thought a whore,
a girl of the street
Suddenly seems to be
humanity's burden
Oh! l beseech you Our Lady
Oh! Allow me just once
The entrance to Esmeralda's garden
Beauty
Behind those eyes that cast a spell
Could the girl still be a maiden?
When the moves she makes
promise me the earth
Underneath her rainbow skirt
My betrothed,
leave me one infidelity
Before we're joined by God
What
Man could resist gazing at her
At the risk of becoming transfixed?
Oh! My Lilly Flower
l'm not a man to trust
l'll pluck the flower
of Esmeralda's love
My eyes gazed
under her gipsy dress
What shall l pray to Mary for?
Who
Will cast the first stone at her?
He who does not deserve to live
O Satan! Oh! Let me just once
Pass my fingers through the hair
Of Esmeralda,
Esmeralda
My friends, the gargoyles,

They'll protect you from any fool
Whenever you need shelter
Come to me, l'll protect you
The Notre Dame of Paris

My air, my roof, it's my bed

My reason, my folly
My passion, my country
lt's my prison, my homeland
Your friends the gargoyles

They make me laugh
on days when l'm bored
You're like them
and l like you for that
Even though l'm scared of you
most all the time
ln my house

Warm in the winter

You are always welcome
Any time of the year

Between brothers everywhere

Ave Maria
l feel my life slipping
lnto some unknown world
l feel the crowd receding
When l walk the streets
l'm stripped bare
Stripped bare
This ocean of passion
pulsing through my veins
Causes all my madness
my loss, my bad luck
Causes all my madness
my loss, my bad luck
Softly l'll plunge into it
without a hand to save me
Slowly l will drown
without a bit of remorse
You will destroy me
you will destroy me
And l'll curse you
to my death
You will destroy me
You will destroy me
l could have foreseen
from the first day
From the first night
you will destroy me
You will destroy me
you will destroy me
My sin, my obsession
tormenting mad desire
Making a fool of me
tearing me apart, haunting me
Little pusher of illusion
l live with only one hope
Of seeing your skirt fly past
while you sing and dance
You will destroy me
you will destroy me
And l'll curse you
to my death
You will destroy me
you will destroy me
l could have foreseen
from the first day
From the first night
you will destroy me
You will destroy me
you will destroy me
l thought it was the autumn of life
and here l am, a young tree again
l thought l was a man of steel
far from the heat of flesh
l'm on fire, l'm burning
for the eyes of a stranger
That conceal much more mystery
than the light of the moon
You will destroy me
you will destroy me
And l'll curse you
to my death
You will destroy me
you will destroy me
l could have foreseen
from the first day
From the first night
You will destroy me
you will destroy me
You will destroy me
You will destroy me
You will destroy me
You will destroy me
Who is that man
ls it my shadow behind me
or a ghost in the night
Why would my shadow
Wear a coat
wear a hat
Who are you?
Desenmasc?rate!
Ac?rcate!
Date a conocer!
Soy tu conciencia
pon atenci?n a mis palabras.
Si quer?s escapar
de la horca
Soldado del Rey
Vete de
ese lugar
You are about to enter
A soldier of the King l am
But tell me
You who've followed me
Here
Are you not God's servant?
Of course!
En las calles de St. Denis
hay un lugar bendito
Puedes ver las velas quemando
mientras la tarde cae.
Ah? en el medio de la llanura
Si vas una vez
Querr?s ir todos los d?as

Realizar?n tus deseos
por peniques
No hay necesidad de oro
ni diamantes
Sin necesidad de discursos
o palabras de amor
Solo unos peniques
para hacer amor
Con las chicas que trabajan
en el Valle del Amor
Andalucinas, jud?as y p?ramos
llegan de cada puerto
Viajeros y mercantes
descansan ah? por un rato
Catalanes y Flamencos iguales
gastan todo su dinero en una noche
Las chicas que trabajan ah?
Escuchan las canciones de los juglares
Llorando por sus mal de amores
en el Valle del Amor Cabaret
Toca esos tambores
en el vecindario.
Ap?rate para ir
al Valle del Amor
Sin peligro
de enamorarse
Con lo que hay abajo de las ropas
en el Valle del Amor
Encontrar?s bajo el terciopelo
Flores por una noche,
placer por una noche
Cuando me siento enfermo de amor
Voy al Valle del Amor
Te quedar?s ah? hasta que amanezca,
en el Valle del Amor.
Disc?lpenme chicas
Estoy esperando a la encantadora Esmeralda
Ella vio mi destino
en la palma de mi mano
La puerta de la ciudad norte
en los alrdedores
La puerta de la ciudad norte
en los alrdedores
En las encrucijadas
de Popincourt
Todos los ladrones
todos los p?caros
Se encuentran en
el Valle del Amor
Hombres nobles

Los ver?s beber
hasta que mueran
En el Valle del Amor
las chicas que atienden
Realizar?n tus
deseos por peniques
No es necesario el oro

Sensuous
For me voluptuous delight
From this pure body
For me all these delights
Nobody else but me
Will touch you
Black angel of mine
l'll love you
in the depths of night
With just one look
you set me on fire
Our skins of two colors
Like
a burning torch
l'll love you
love you even if l die
Take me
take me if that's my fate
Let us see
let us see if that's your fate
Phoebus

Mistress of our destinies

When you cross our path
Fate
prince or pauper

You hold our lives in your hand

Tell me about Florence
And the renaissance
Tell me about Bramante
And the Hell of Dante
ln Florence they say
The world is round
And there may be other lands
ln this world
Ships are sailing the oceans now
ln search of the passage to lndia
Luther will write the New Testament
And we're at the dawn
of a divided world
A certain Gutemberg
Has changed the face of the earth
With the presses in Nuremburg
That every second print
Poems on paper
Speeches and tracts
Revolutionary ideas
That sweep everything else aside
Small things outnumber big things
Thus literature will be the demise
of architecture
Schoolbooks will extinguish
cathedrals
The Bible will destroy the church
and men will kill God
This will destroy that
Ships are sailing the oceans now
ln search of the passage to lndia
Luther will write the New Testament
And we're at the dawn
of a divided world
This will destroy that
This will destroy that
The bells are quiet
The cathedral silent
Quasimodo is miserable
Quasimodo's in love
He hasn't rung the bells
For the last three days
Quasimodo is sad
Quasimodo is mad
Because he's lovesick
These bells l ring
Are my love and lovers
l want them to shout
To sing and cry out
By hail or by thunder
With rain or the the wind
l want them to resound
ln joy as in torment
Those that ring when we are born
those that ring when we die
Those that ring everday,
every night, every hour
Those that ring when we pray
Those that ring when we cry
Those that ring
for the early to rise
For Palm Sunday
for Quasimodo
For Christmas and All Saints' Day
For Annunciation
for the Resurrection
For Valentine's Day and Good Friday
For celebrations
and processions
The most beautiful is for Sunday
New Year's Day, Epiphany
and Easter, day of joy
Pentecost with its burning tongues
For the confirmation
and for communion
The Angelus and the knell,
dies irae dies illa
For Ascension Day
and Assumption
For all the hosannas and alleluias
But the ones that l prefer
Of all these iron ladies
Are the Three Marias
They're my dearest friends
There's Little Maria
For children who've just died
There's big Maria
For mariners who set sail
But when l ring the biggest Maria
For lovers to be wed
My heart breaks
l feel like l could die
Seeing them so happy
seeing them full of joy
And no woman ever will look
into my eyes
Seeing them newly married
to watch them fly away
To the stars under heaven's vault
All the bells that l ring
Kyrie Eleison
Hosanna alleluia
dies irae dies illa
All those bells of adversity
all those bells of felicity
All those bells
that never rang for me
The bells l ring
Are my friends, are my lovers
l want them to cry out loud
lf Esmeralda lives
To tell the world that Quasimodo
loves Esmeralda
Gringoire, where is your wife?
We don't see her dancing
at Notre Dame anymore
To tell you the truth, l don't know
You're a priest, l a poet
We don't share the same wives
Yours is religion, mine is poetry
Where is she
your Esmeralda
The streets of Paris
Are gloomy without her
She is alone
in a tower
Far away from those who fear
To be bewitched by her
What do you mean poet,
you speak with a forked tongue
Don't evade the question
Answer me, have you seen her?
Where is she
my Esmeralda
The den of thieves
has lost its queen
She is like
a swallow
Whose wings
Have been clipped
You will find her
in the prison of La Sante
lf you don't save her
she will be sentenced
To hang
l've heard enough, tell me no more
Where is she
our Esmeralda
The streets of Paris
Are gloomy without her
She is like
a swallow
Whose wings
Have been clipped
Caged birds
Can they still fly?
Violated children
Can they still love?
l was like a swallow
l arrived with the spring
Running through the city streets
Singing gipsy songs
Where are you, bell ringer?
Where are you, Quasimodo
Come to save me from the rope
Pull apart these bars
Where are you, my Esmeralda
Where are you hiding from me
Three days have gone by
We haven't seen you here
Did you leave on a trip
With your handsome captain
Without being engaged,
without a wedding
Like the pagans do
Could you be dead, perhaps
Without a prayer or a wreath
Don't ever let a priest
Come close to you
Remember that day at the fair
When they tied me to the wheel
When l gave you water to drink
l fell down on my knees
That's the day that we became
Friends for life, until death
There's something that binds
You to me, something very strong
Caged birds
Can they still fly?
Violated children
Can they still love?
Condemned

Exiled
Deported
The color
Of my skin
Close
To yours
The song
You sing
With the music

The pain
Of exile
On the streets
Of your city
How to make a world
Without any more
Excluded
How to make a world
Without misery
or borders
Humiliated
Rejected
Oppressed
Revolted
Tortured
Suppressed
Decimated
Massacred
My country

ln my heart
ln my body
Your country
Brings me
Misfortune
And death
My warmth
From the south
Under your skies
Always grey

How to make a world
Without any more

Esmeralda, you stand accused
Of wounding the archers' captain
lf he is wounded, he's still alive
Oh! Let me see him
for just one moment
You seduced and bewitched him
You stabbed him with a knife
l did not do it, l swear it
But you were alone with him,
in bed
A diabolic priest is harassing me
He appears everywhere in the night
This girl has hallucinations
Born in her imagination
He resembles you a bit, Sir
Look at the fire in her eyes
She's a witch, a foreigner
She's a gipsy, a non believer
Do you confess to the crime
of which you are accused
l am a victim
l have nothing to confess
Torture her
Question her
lf she endures
she must be a tough one
Put her little foot
in the vice and tighten it
Tighten it!
Do you confess?
l love him! l confess!
Untie her feet and hands
Murderers! Murderers!
Gipsy girl, you have confessed
to all your acts of magic,
Prostitution and the harassment
of Phoebus de Chateaupers
You will be taken in chemise,
barefoot, your neck in a noose
To the Place de Greve
where you will hang
From the gallows of the city
Phoebus
lf by some chance he's still alive
tell him that l love him still
Phoebus
lf you hear me, come save me
make them hear the truth
Phoebus
Tell them l did not kill you
Phoebus
That knife l had
l put it on the floor
Phoebus
That man in black that followed us
l saw him bending over you
Phoebus
With my knife he stabbed you
Phoebus
Promise me you will always
remember Esmeralda
Phoebus
She who danced in the square
and gave her life to you
Phoebus
Oh! Take me far away from here
To the hills of Andalusia
Phoebus
l was a happy man before l met you
When relegated to my inner core
Lay the sexuality
l stifled in adolescence
While l served my two loves,
religion and science
Oh! A priest who loves a woman
Loves her to the depths of his soul
Against wind and waves
l was solid as rock
Straight and true
as a cathedral's spire
Then you came like a worm
to knaw my insides
And awaken a fire
l thought had long died
Oh! A priest who loves a woman
Loves her to the depths of his soul
l lived far from women,
and the tortures of flesh
When in the dark of night
there came a flash
Distracted from prayer,
l opened the blind
To the dawn which
revealed you in kind
Oh! A priest who loves a woman
Loves her, yes loves her
to the depths of his soul
Oh! A priest who loves a woman
With one hand caress me
the other to whip
Let me atone for my sins
The hell that you'll go to
will be mine as well
And will be my paradise
Oh! A priest who loves a woman
Loves her, yes loves her
to the depths of his soul
Oh! A priest who loves a woman
A woman
When you pass, upon your steed
what style, what grace
The perfect image of rectitude
a figure of strength
Or perhaps you're a rake
an animal on the make
Chasing after adventure
does a heart beat under that armor?
Mine is pure as the sky is blue
let me heal your wounds
Let's forget this misfortune
l'll love you if you swear
l'll love you if you swear
that they will hang
The Zingara
My little girl's dreams
expand and fade
As l toss them away
Don't be deceived because l'm
white as a lamb inside
Only my coat touched by dirt
Your proclamations are insults
your words of love are false
My heart grows harder
and l'll back you against the wall
Free me from these chains
take me, you brute
Teach me the ways of lust
l'll love you if you swear
l'll love you if you swear
that they will hang
The Zingara
l'll love you if you swear
l'll love you if you swear
That they will hang
Esmeralda!
That they will hang
the Zingara
l was bewitched
in body and mind
The gipsy put a spell on me
l lost my head
and all my sense
ln that labyrinth
l almost met my death
The man who cheated on you
is not the same
As the man today
who says he loves you
l'm cured
in heart and soul
And if you'll have me
l'll come back to you
l was bewitched
in body and mind
The gypsy only wanted my money
l lost my head
and all my sense
l lost my head
and all my sense
But now l'm back safe and sane
l was bewitched
in body and mind
The gypsy is condemned to die
l lost my head
and all my sense
Deep inside it's you l love
lt's you that l still love
it's you that l still love
l'm a priest,
here to help you face your death
l'm cold, l'm hungry, let me go
l've done no wrong
Hear the bell ringing
it's five in the morning
Soon this door will open
in an hour you'll be dead
ln an hour l'll be fine!
We shall see if you will dance
Once more before the gallows
What have l done to you
To make you hate me so much?
lt is not hate
l love you!
l love you
But what did l do to you
To make you love me so much?
Me, a poor gypsy
and you, the priest of Notre Dame
One morning you danced
On the square, in the sun
Never have l known
Something like this
A shiver shook me
And ran through my spine
and l still remember
Since that day
When l look into the mirror
lt's Lucifer l seem to see
lnstead of me
l wait for him, he will come
My Phoebus, my sun
He'll be my love
My lover, my miracle
Come closer, assassin
l'll kill you with these hands
no, l'm not afraid of you
l'll bite you like a dog
go away bird of ill omen
l asked only a moment of pleasure
l give you a choice
Before dawn breaks
The gallows or me
Death or love
The tomb or my bed
lt's life or death
you only need to say yes
And l'll get you out
l promise to return you
To your gypsy brothers
To your devil's partners
Go away!
Go away!
Go away!
Go away!

Moon
Shining high above
Upon
Parisian roofs
See
How a man
can suffer from love
Bright
Solitary star
Fading away
With the coming of day
Hear
Rising up to you
the song of the earth
Listen to the cry
Of a man in pain
For whom
A million stars
Mean nothing compared
To the eyes of the one
He loves
A deadly love
Moon
Moon
Shining high above
Before
The break of day
Hear
The howling heart
of the human beast
lt's the plaint
Of Quasimodo
Who cries
ln mad despair
His voice
Up hill and down dale
Flies up
To you
Moon!
Watch
Over this strange world
That joins
lts voice with choirs of angels
Moon
Shining high above
To
Shed your light upon my pen
See
How a man
can suffer from love
Love
l leave you a whistle
so you can call me
During the day, you must stay here
but you can walk at night
On the roofs of the cathedral
under the stars
You don't hear me
you're already asleep
lt's a nasty world out there
You're beautiful when you sleep
ln your sleep
Esmeralda
Are you dreaming of your sun?
God this world is unfair
he's so handsome and l'm so ugly
Even if l gave you the moon
you'd still refuse to love me
And he, without making a move
without a word or a glance
And he, without making a move
without a word or a glance
Put some tenderness
into your big black eyes
You'll give yourself to him
and believe all of his oaths
You love him for his stature
without looking at what's inside
God this world is unfair
he a lord and l a lout
He'll give you the moon
when you've asked for nothing
God this world is unfair
go love your shining knight
The satin of your dark skin
is not made for tramps
My ugliness is an insult
to your brazen beauty
An error of mother nature's
didn't grant me any favors
God this world is unfair
our fate is not theirs
We don't have a fortune
but them, do they have hearts?
They're born into lace
to make love and war
But we poor earthworms
our lives are filled with beauty
And on which side is God
on the side of monstrances
Or on the side of those
who pray morning and night
This Jesus that we so adore
has He always preferred
The three wise men and their gold
above us poor shepherds?
God this life is cruel
for two searching hearts
l so ugly and you so fair
how could you possibly love me?
The night is so lovely
And l am so lonely
l don't want to die
l want to sing again
to dance and laugh
l don't want to die
Die
Before having loved
To live
For the one you love
Love
More than the love itself
To give
Without expectation
Free
To choose how you live
Without excommunication
Without interdictions
Free
Without a God or a country
The only baptism
The rain that falls from the sky
To live
For the one you love
Love
More than the love itself
To give
Without expectation
The two worlds that now separate us
One day will unite
Oh! l'd love to believe it
Even at the cost of my life
l'd give my life
To change history
To live
For the one you love
Love
More than the love itself
To give
Without expectation
Love
Like the night loves the day
Love
Until you die of love
Until you die of love
Asylum!

My master, my savior
Priest of the Lord
You have a heart after all
A heart
A heart that can love
A heart that can cry
A heart that can bleed
A heart that can kill
Look at her
Your fair Esmeralda
Remember Quasimodo
The one who danced there
on her stage
l handed her to the executioner
Because she didn't want me
You did that, you!
She will die
like Jesus on the cross
Look over there
On Place de Greve the gallows await
Your Esmeralda
They're hanging her
at the break of dawn
Ha ha ha ha......
Frollo!
Give her to me
Return her to me
Leave her with me
She's mine
My Esmeralda
Don't go
Stay with me
ln times to come
They will find buried
Our two skeletons entwined
To tell the whole universe
How much Quasimodo loved
Esmeralda the Zingara
He who God made so ugly
To help him carry his cross
To help him carry his cross
Devour my body, drink my blood
Vultures of Montfaucon
May death for all time
Unite our two names
Let my soul fly away
Far from the misery of the world
Let my love blend
With the light of the universe
With the light of the universe
Dance my Esmeralda
Sing my Esmeralda
Dance once more for me
l want you desperately
Dance my Esmeralda
Sing my Esmeralda
Let me go with you
To die for you is not death
Dance my Esmeralda
Sing my Esmeralda
Come and sleep in my arms
l want you desperately
Dance my Esmeralda
Sing my Esmeralda
Beyond the beyond
To die for you is not
death
Dance my Esmeralda
Sing my Esmeralda
Let me go with you
To die for you is not
To die for you is not

Un cuento de amor y deseo
Donde los artistas de valor desconocido
En escultura y verso
Intentaran transcribir
esta historia para ustedes y la posteridad
El tiempo de las catedrales ha llegado
Mientras el mundo est? entrando
a un nuevo milenio
Un hombre alcanzado por las estrellas
Para escribir esta historia
en vidrio y piedra
Ladrillo por ladrillo, d?a tras d?a
Siglo tras siglo, con amor
?l vio el alzamiento de las torres
Que construyo con sus propias manos
Poetas y juglares
cantaron canciones de amor
que prometian mejores tiempos
Para toda la humanidad
El tiempo de las catedrales ha llegado
mientras el mundo entra
en un nuevo milenio
Un hombre alcanzado por las estrellas
para escribir esta historia
en vidrio y piedra.

Sir Phoebus de Chateaupers
capit?n de los arqueros del Rey
Te convoco a ahuyentar
todos estos forajidos.
Por todos los medios, debemos
detener esta horda de extra?os
que disturban la paz
De los ciudadanos del pa?s
por tus ?rdenes mi Lord Archidiacre
En el nombre de Dios matar?
y perseguir? de sus ojos
Todos estos patanes sin futuro
De d?nde eres, extra?o encantador?
Hija de las estrellas de la tierra
Ave justa del para?so
D?nde est?s?
Gitana
Nadie conoce mi tierra
Gitana
Soy un hijo de la carretera
Gitana, gitana
D?nde estar? ma?ana?
Gitana, gitana
Est? escrito en la palma de mi mano
Mi madre me cont? de Espa?a
Como si fuera su casa
Sobre los bandidos de la colina
En las colinas de Andaluc?a
En las colinas de Andaluc?a
Mi padre muri?, mi madre tambi?n
Paris es mi casa
Pero cuando sue?o con el mar
me traslado muy lejos
a las colinas de Andaluc?a
Gitana
Nadie conoce mi tierra
Gitana
Soy hijo de la carretera
Gitana, gitana
Donde estar? ma?ana
Gitana, gitana
Est? escrito en la palma de mi mano
Mi infancia pas?
Descalzo en las colinas de Provence
Para los gitanos el camino es largo
El camino es largo
Y seguir? caminando
M?s all? de los caminos de Francia
Los caminar? hasta
el final de la tierra
Hasta el final de la Tierra
Un r?o andalucino
corre en mi sangre
corre en mis venas
Acaso los cielos de Andaluc?a
valen
volver?
Gitana
Nadie conoce mi tierra

Soy un hijo de la carretera
Gitana, gitana

Gitana, gitana
Est? escrito en la palma de mi mano
Est? escrito en la palma de mi mano
T? sabes, Esmeralda
Ya no eres una ni?a
Y a veces te veo
Con ojos diferentes
S?lo ten?as ocho a?os
cuando tu madre se fue
tomada por la muerte
a su casa en Andaluc?a
Ella te conf?o a mi
Y con cuidado
he velado por ti
hasta hoy.
T? sabes, Esmeralda
Los hombres son malvados.
Ten cuidado cuando corres
en campos o calles
Me entiendes?
Est?s por descubrir amor
Nada es como antes.
Mis catorce veranos son para t?.
Este collar de diamantes es para mi.
Si tus palabras y promesas fueran mentira
No las creer?a
Tu coraz?n de doncella
es m?o
Tus ojos de paloma son para m?
Las estrellas brillan en los cielos
Menos brillantes que estos ojos
?l al que mi coraz?n desea
Es un caballero justo
Que no sabe
los campos de mi amor
Si no lo supiera
Puedo verlo en tus ojos
Quien gane tu amor
Ser? un hombre con suerte
Det?n tu b?squeda
El amor est? aqu?
Aqu? para siempre
As? es.
El d?a ser? alegre, el d?a
en que nos casemos
Todo el oro que todav?a yace en la profundidad
Debajo de la tierra en venas dormidas
Qu? usar? para vestir tu cuerpo
Tu cuerpo que me dar?
Todas esas l?neas amantes
todas esas canciones de deseo
mejor que cualquer juglar
me cantar?s
Det?n tu b?squeda
El amor est? aqu?
Aqu? para siempre
As? es
El d?a en que nos casemos,
el d?a
en que nos casemos
Det?n tu b?squeda
El amor est? aqu?
Aqu? para siempre
As? es
El d?a en que nos casemos,
el d?a
en que nos casemos
El d?a en que nos casemos,
el d?a
en que nos casemos

El Papa de los Tontos
Hoy es la Epifan?a
Y por un d?a tengo el
poder de un rey
?Me amar?s,
Esmeralda?
?Me amar?s?
Pero a ti no te preocupa
Esmeralda
Oh! No podr?a preocuparte menos
Que me hayan coronado
El Papa de los Tontos
Peque?as ni?as
Cantando rondos
Burl?ndose de Quasimodo
El jorobado.
?C?mo te hace sentir?
Soy tan feo?
Odio a los padres que me dieron la vida
y me abandonaron sin amor
?Me amar?s,
Esmeralda?
?Me amar?s?
Pero no te interesa
Esmeralda
Oh! No podr?a interesarte menos
que me hayan coronado
el Papa de los Tontos
el Papa de los Tontos
el Papa de los Tontos
el Papa de los Tontos
Atento!
esta chica no es de aqu?.
Es una gitana.
Una bruja
Es una perra
una gata de la calle
An animal on the prowl
barefoot and homeless
Mortal sin incarnate
She ought to be imprisoned
To stop this pillage
Of the hearts and souls
of the children of Notre Dame
Tonight we'll chase her
in the alleys
Tonight we'll take her away
We'll lock her in the tower
And teach her
The only true religion
Of Jesus and The Holy Mother
You can ask of me
anything
And l will do it for you
Anything you like
you know
Anything at all
l will do it for you
l will do it for you
You who took me in
Adopted and fed me
Me, the orphan
The child abandoned
By parents who were shamed
To have brought into this world
A monster
You who watched me grow
You who watched me suffer
You who offered protection
From this cruel world
You gave me my existence
By naming me ringer
Of bells
You taught me to speak
To read and to write
But l can't read
Your true feelings
l belong to you
to the depths of my soul
Like the deepest love of a dog
For his master
l belong to you
to the depths of my soul
Ibelongtoyou
tothetoofmygod
Like the deepest love of a dog
For his master
The gates of Paris
Are closed at dusk
When nighttime's shrieks
And laughter in the dark
and nocturnal desires reign
Nights where every vice
are satisfied
ln the heat of Paris
A showplace of lust
On the Pont-au-Change tonight
An angel l did meet
That smiled at me
Then disappeared
On the streets of Paris
l followed her and lost her
Pursued her into the night
lnto all the laughter
and carnal desire
Nights where every vice
is satisfied
ln the heat of Paris
A showplace of lust
The gates of Paris
Are closed at dusk
When nightime's crimes
And laughter in the dark
And nocturnal desires reign
l am the captain
ln charge of the peace
Of all citizens
Men and women alike
Allow me to escort you
Outside the city gates
Where the gipsies live
Men and women alike
Go your way
You've clearly made a mistake
Esmeralda,
good Sir, is not a soldier's girl
At dusk tomorrow
Tomorrow's end of day
l'll be there to see you

Here we are, brothers all
ln misery and joy
Here there is no heaven or hell
No heaven or hell
Here we're just like worms
Worms in the rotten earth
Wine and blood share the same color
Here in the den of thieves

Prostitutes dance with hoods

Beggers and bandits dance alike

Of the homeless seed
You won't find here

Our rags, our flags
The color of my skin next to yours
Gipsies and villains

Here in the den of thieves

We're all on the lam

Thieves and killers drink

You will hang
Convicted

Upon our sacred ground
Here in the den of thieves
Trespassing on our sacred ground

Takes you for her husband

And you my beauty
My lovely Esmeralda
Will you take as husband
This worthless minstrel?
This worthless minstrel?
lf he's free, l'll take him
He's yours

Wine and blood share the same color

By Jupiter

Dares to go by this name?
He's the one
for whom my heart beats
lf l recall

The word Phoebus means sun
Phoebus means sun
He's bright as the sun

Deep inside
Stronger than myself
He's bright as the sun
He's a prince, the son of a king
Of a king......l think
He's bright as the sun
He's a rascal, a soldier
When he holds me tight
l want to run away, but l can't
He's bright as the sun
He's a rascal, a soldier
A soldier of the king
He's bright as the sun
My wonder, my man
He'll take me in his arms
And love me all his life
He's bright as the sun

He's bright as the sun

Who is this girl
who dances
Her dance of shame
before the Notre Dame?
The girl is my wife
Given to me
By the King of the gipsies
Did you touch her
Servant of Satan?
l wouldn't dare
And l forbid you
l would like to show you
An inscription here engraved
On a stone beyond
The Gallery of Kings
What does it mean-
this word ''Anarkia''?
You're a man posessed
The Greek word ''Anarkia''
signifies ''Fate''
ls that not Quasimodo
That they're taking away?
He's got himself arrested, the fool
And only God knows why
Hunchback! Rapist! One-eyed & lame!
Damned ringer of the bells
Pray for him, the poor sinner
Have mercy on him, good Lord
Mercy
for poor Quasimodo
Who carries on his back
All the world's woes
And asks you only
for a drop of water
Have mercy, public
for this servant of the Lord
A drop of water only
For Quasimodo
l'm thirsty!
Give me a drop to drink!
l'm thirsty!
l'm thirsty!
Give me something to drink!
Beauty
Beauty
Beauty
lt seems a word invented for her
When she dances, revealing her body
Like a bird
spreads its wings to fly
l feel the devil
take me by the feet
My eyes gazed
under her gipsy dress
What shall l pray to Mary for?
Who
Will cast the first stone at her?
He who does not deserve to live
O Satan! Oh! Let me just once
Pass my fingers through her hair
Beauty
ls she the devil incarnate
Leading me from the Eternal Lord
Who has bewitched me
with carnal desire
To turn me from heaven above?
She carries inside the original sin
Am l a criminal if l desire her?
She
Who all thought a whore,
a girl of the street
Suddenly seems to be
humanity's burden
Oh! l beseech you Our Lady
Oh! Allow me just once
The entrance to Esmeralda's garden
Beauty
Behind those eyes that cast a spell
Could the girl still be a maiden?
When the moves she makes
promise me the earth
Underneath her rainbow skirt
My betrothed,
leave me one infidelity
Before we're joined by God
What
Man could resist gazing at her
At the risk of becoming transfixed?
Oh! My Lilly Flower
l'm not a man to trust
l'll pluck the flower
of Esmeralda's love
My eyes gazed
under her gipsy dress
What shall l pray to Mary for?
Who
Will cast the first stone at her?
He who does not deserve to live
O Satan! Oh! Let me just once
Pass my fingers through the hair
Of Esmeralda,
Esmeralda
My friends, the gargoyles,

They'll protect you from any fool
Whenever you need shelter
Come to me, l'll protect you
The Notre Dame of Paris

My air, my roof, it's my bed

My reason, my folly
My passion, my country
lt's my prison, my homeland
Your friends the gargoyles
are my friends too
They make me laugh
on days when l'm bored
You're like them
and l like you for that
Even though l'm scared of you
most all the time

Warm in the winter

Between brothers everywhere

l feel my life slipping
lnto some unknown world
l feel the crowd receding
When l walk the streets
l'm stripped bare
Stripped bare
This ocean of passion
pulsing through my veins
Causes all my madness
my loss, my bad luck
Causes all my madness
my loss, my bad luck
Softly l'll plunge into it
without a hand to save me
Slowly l will drown
without a bit of remorse
You will destroy me
you will destroy me
And l'll curse you
to my death
You will destroy me
You will destroy me
l could have foreseen
from the first day
From the first night
you will destroy me
You will destroy me
you will destroy me
My sin, my obsession
tormenting mad desire
Making a fool of me
tearing me apart, haunting me
Little pusher of illusion
l live with only one hope
Of seeing your skirt fly past
while you sing and dance
You will destroy me
you will destroy me
And l'll curse you
to my death
You will destroy me
you will destroy me
l could have foreseen
from the first day
From the first night
you will destroy me
You will destroy me
you will destroy me
l thought it was the autumn of life
and here l am, a young tree again
l thought l was a man of steel
far from the heat of flesh
l'm on fire, l'm burning
for the eyes of a stranger
That conceal much more mystery
than the light of the moon
You will destroy me
you will destroy me
And l'll curse you
to my death
You will destroy me
you will destroy me
l could have foreseen
from the first day
From the first night
You will destroy me
you will destroy me
You will destroy me
You will destroy me
You will destroy me
You will destroy me
Who is that man
ls it my shadow behind me
or a ghost in the night
Why would my shadow
Wear a coat

Who are you?
Desenmasc?rate!
Ac?rcate!
Date a conocer!
Soy tu conciencia
pon atenci?n a mis palabras.
Si quer?s escapar
de la horca
Soldado del Rey
Vete de
ese lugar
You are about to enter
A soldier of the King l am
But tell me
You who've followed me
Here
Are you not God's servant?
Of course!
En las calles de St. Denis
hay un lugar bendito
Puedes ver las velas quemando
mientras la tarde cae.
Ah? en el medio de la llanura
Si vas una vez
Querr?s ir todos los d?as
al Valle del Amor Cabaret
En el Valle del Amor
las chicas que atienden
Realizar?n tus deseos
por peniques
No hay necesidad de oro
ni diamantes
Sin necesidad de discursos
o palabras de amor
Solo unos peniques
para hacer amor
Con las chicas que trabajan
en el Valle del Amor
Andalucinas, jud?as y p?ramos
llegan de cada puerto
Viajeros y mercantes
descansan ah? por un rato
Catalanes y Flamencos iguales
gastan todo su dinero en una noche
Las chicas que trabajan ah?
Escuchan las canciones de los juglares
Llorando por sus mal de amores
en el Valle del Amor Cabaret
Toca esos tambores
en el vecindario.
Ap?rate para ir
al Valle del Amor
Sin peligro
de enamorarse
Con lo que hay abajo de las ropas
en el Valle del Amor
Encontrar?s bajo el terciopelo
Flores por una noche,
placer por una noche
Cuando me siento enfermo de amor
Voy al Valle del Amor
Te quedar?s ah? hasta que amanezca,
en el Valle del Amor.
Disc?lpenme chicas
Estoy esperando a la encantadora Esmeralda
Ella vio mi destino
en la palma de mi mano
La puerta de la ciudad norte
en los alrdedores
La puerta de la ciudad norte
en los alrdedores
En las encrucijadas
de Popincourt
Todos los ladrones
todos los p?caros
Se encuentran en
el Valle del Amor
Hombres nobles
se deshonran ellos mismos
Los ver?s beber
hasta que mueran
En el Valle del Amor
las chicas que atienden
Realizar?n tus
deseos por peniques
No es necesario el oro
no es necesario tener joyas
No hay necesidad de discursos
o palabras de amor
S?lo unos pocos peniques
para hacer amor
Con las chicas que atienden
en el Valle del Amor
En el Valle del Amor Cabaret

Sensuous
For me voluptuous delight
From this pure body
For me all these delights
Nobody else but me
Will touch you
Black angel of mine
l'll love you
in the depths of night
With just one look
you set me on fire
Our skins of two colors
Like
a burning torch
l'll love you
love you even if l die
Take me
take me if that's my fate
Let us see
let us see if that's your fate
Phoebus

Fate
Mistress of our destinies
Fate
When you cross our path
Fate
prince or pauper
Fate
Queen or prostitute
Fate
You hold our lives in your hand

Tell me about Florence
And the renaissance
Tell me about Bramante
And the Hell of Dante
ln Florence they say
The world is round
And there may be other lands
ln this world
Ships are sailing the oceans now
ln search of the passage to lndia
Luther will write the New Testament
And we're at the dawn
of a divided world
A certain Gutemberg
Has changed the face of the earth
With the presses in Nuremburg
That every second print
Poems on paper
Speeches and tracts
Revolutionary ideas
That sweep everything else aside
Small things outnumber big things
Thus literature will be the demise
of architecture
Schoolbooks will extinguish
cathedrals
The Bible will destroy the church
and men will kill God
This will destroy that
Ships are sailing the oceans now
ln search of the passage to lndia
Luther will write the New Testament
And we're at the dawn
of a divided world
This will destroy that
This will destroy that
The bells are quiet
The cathedral silent
Quasimodo is miserable
Quasimodo's in love
He hasn't rung the bells
For the last three days
Quasimodo is sad
Quasimodo is mad
Because he's lovesick
These bells l ring
Are my love and lovers
l want them to shout
To sing and cry out
By hail or by thunder
With rain or the the wind
l want them to resound
ln joy as in torment
Those that ring when we are born
those that ring when we die
Those that ring everday,
every night, every hour
Those that ring when we pray
Those that ring when we cry
Those that ring
for the early to rise
For Palm Sunday
for Quasimodo
For Christmas and All Saints' Day
For Annunciation
for the Resurrection
For Valentine's Day and Good Friday
For celebrations
and processions
The most beautiful is for Sunday
New Year's Day, Epiphany
and Easter, day of joy
Pentecost with its burning tongues
For the confirmation
and for communion
The Angelus and the knell,
dies irae dies illa
For Ascension Day
and Assumption
For all the hosannas and alleluias
But the ones that l prefer
Of all these iron ladies
Are the Three Marias
They're my dearest friends
There's Little Maria
For children who've just died
There's big Maria
For mariners who set sail
But when l ring the biggest Maria
For lovers to be wed
My heart breaks
l feel like l could die
Seeing them so happy
seeing them full of joy
And no woman ever will look
into my eyes
Seeing them newly married
to watch them fly away
To the stars under heaven's vault
All the bells that l ring
Kyrie Eleison
Hosanna alleluia
dies irae dies illa
All those bells of adversity
all those bells of felicity
All those bells
that never rang for me
The bells l ring
Are my friends, are my lovers
l want them to cry out loud
lf Esmeralda lives
To tell the world that Quasimodo
loves Esmeralda
Gringoire, where is your wife?
We don't see her dancing
at Notre Dame anymore
To tell you the truth, l don't know
You're a priest, l a poet
We don't share the same wives
Yours is religion, mine is poetry
Where is she
your Esmeralda
The streets of Paris
Are gloomy without her
She is alone
in a tower
Far away from those who fear
To be bewitched by her
What do you mean poet,
you speak with a forked tongue
Don't evade the question
Answer me, have you seen her?
Where is she
my Esmeralda
The den of thieves
has lost its queen
She is like
a swallow
Whose wings
Have been clipped
You will find her
in the prison of La Sante
lf you don't save her
she will be sentenced
To hang
l've heard enough, tell me no more
Where is she
our Esmeralda
The streets of Paris
Are gloomy without her
She is like
a swallow
Whose wings
Have been clipped
Caged birds
Can they still fly?
Violated children
Can they still love?
l was like a swallow
l arrived with the spring
Running through the city streets
Singing gipsy songs
Where are you, bell ringer?
Where are you, Quasimodo
Come to save me from the rope
Pull apart these bars
Where are you, my Esmeralda
Where are you hiding from me
Three days have gone by
We haven't seen you here
Did you leave on a trip
With your handsome captain
Without being engaged,
without a wedding
Like the pagans do
Could you be dead, perhaps
Without a prayer or a wreath
Don't ever let a priest
Come close to you
Remember that day at the fair
When they tied me to the wheel
When l gave you water to drink
l fell down on my knees
That's the day that we became
Friends for life, until death
There's something that binds
You to me, something very strong
Caged birds
Can they still fly?
Violated children
Can they still love?

Esmeralda, you stand accused
Of wounding the archers' captain
lf he is wounded, he's still alive
Oh! Let me see him
for just one moment
You seduced and bewitched him
You stabbed him with a knife
l did not do it, l swear it
But you were alone with him,
in bed
A diabolic priest is harassing me
He appears everywhere in the night
This girl has hallucinations
Born in her imagination
He resembles you a bit, Sir
Look at the fire in her eyes
She's a witch, a foreigner
She's a gipsy, a non believer
Do you confess to the crime
of which you are accused
l am a victim
l have nothing to confess
Torture her
Question her
lf she endures
she must be a tough one
Put her little foot
in the vice and tighten it
Tighten it!
Do you confess?
l love him! l confess!
Untie her feet and hands
Murderers! Murderers!
Gipsy girl, you have confessed
to all your acts of magic,
Prostitution and the harassment
of Phoebus de Chateaupers
You will be taken in chemise,
barefoot, your neck in a noose
To the Place de Greve
where you will hang
From the gallows of the city
Phoebus
lf by some chance he's still alive
tell him that l love him still
Phoebus
lf you hear me, come save me
make them hear the truth
Phoebus
Tell them l did not kill you
Phoebus
That knife l had
l put it on the floor
Phoebus
That man in black that followed us
l saw him bending over you
Phoebus
With my knife he stabbed you
Phoebus
Promise me you will always
remember Esmeralda
Phoebus
She who danced in the square
and gave her life to you
Phoebus
Oh! Take me far away from here
To the hills of Andalusia
Phoebus
l was a happy man before l met you
When relegated to my inner core
Lay the sexuality
l stifled in adolescence
While l served my two loves,
religion and science
Oh! A priest who loves a woman
Loves her to the depths of his soul
Against wind and waves
l was solid as rock
Straight and true
as a cathedral's spire
Then you came like a worm
to knaw my insides
And awaken a fire
l thought had long died
Oh! A priest who loves a woman
Loves her to the depths of his soul
l lived far from women,
and the tortures of flesh
When in the dark of night
there came a flash
Distracted from prayer,
l opened the blind
To the dawn which
revealed you in kind
Oh! A priest who loves a woman
Loves her, yes loves her
to the depths of his soul
Oh! A priest who loves a woman
With one hand caress me
the other to whip
Let me atone for my sins
The hell that you'll go to
will be mine as well
And will be my paradise
Oh! A priest who loves a woman
Loves her, yes loves her
to the depths of his soul
Oh! A priest who loves a woman
A woman
When you pass, upon your steed
what style, what grace
The perfect image of rectitude
a figure of strength
Or perhaps you're a rake
an animal on the make
Chasing after adventure
does a heart beat under that armor?
Mine is pure as the sky is blue
let me heal your wounds
Let's forget this misfortune
l'll love you if you swear
l'll love you if you swear
that they will hang
The Zingara
My little girl's dreams
expand and fade
As l toss them away
Don't be deceived because l'm
white as a lamb inside
Only my coat touched by dirt
Your proclamations are insults
your words of love are false
My heart grows harder
and l'll back you against the wall
Free me from these chains
take me, you brute
Teach me the ways of lust
l'll love you if you swear
l'll love you if you swear
that they will hang
The Zingara
l'll love you if you swear
l'll love you if you swear
That they will hang
Esmeralda!
That they will hang
the Zingara
l was bewitched
in body and mind
The gipsy put a spell on me
l lost my head
and all my sense
ln that labyrinth
l almost met my death
The man who cheated on you
is not the same
As the man today
who says he loves you
l'm cured
in heart and soul
And if you'll have me
l'll come back to you
l was bewitched
in body and mind
The gypsy only wanted my money
l lost my head
and all my sense
l lost my head
and all my sense
But now l'm back safe and sane
l was bewitched
in body and mind
The gypsy is condemned to die
l lost my head
and all my sense
Deep inside it's you l love
lt's you that l still love
it's you that l still love
l'm a priest,
here to help you face your death
l'm cold, l'm hungry, let me go
l've done no wrong
Hear the bell ringing
it's five in the morning
Soon this door will open
in an hour you'll be dead
ln an hour l'll be fine!
We shall see if you will dance
Once more before the gallows
What have l done to you
To make you hate me so much?
lt is not hate
l love you!
l love you
But what did l do to you
To make you love me so much?
Me, a poor gypsy
and you, the priest of Notre Dame
One morning you danced
On the square, in the sun
Never have l known
Something like this
A shiver shook me
And ran through my spine
and l still remember
Since that day
When l look into the mirror
lt's Lucifer l seem to see
lnstead of me
l wait for him, he will come
My Phoebus, my sun
He'll be my love
My lover, my miracle
Come closer, assassin
l'll kill you with these hands
no, l'm not afraid of you
l'll bite you like a dog
go away bird of ill omen
l asked only a moment of pleasure
l give you a choice
Before dawn breaks
The gallows or me
Death or love
The tomb or my bed
lt's life or death
you only need to say yes
And l'll get you out
l promise to return you
To your gypsy brothers
To your devil's partners
Go away!
Go away!
Go away!
Go away!

Moon
Shining high above
Upon
Parisian roofs
See
How a man
can suffer from love
Bright
Solitary star
Fading away
With the coming of day
Hear
Rising up to you
the song of the earth
Listen to the cry
Of a man in pain
For whom
A million stars
Mean nothing compared
To the eyes of the one
He loves
A deadly love
Moon
Moon
Shining high above
Before
The break of day
Hear
The howling heart
of the human beast
lt's the plaint
Of Quasimodo
Who cries
ln mad despair
His voice
Up hill and down dale
Flies up
To you
Moon!
Watch
Over this strange world
That joins
lts voice with choirs of angels
Moon
Shining high above
To
Shed your light upon my pen
See
How a man
can suffer from love
Love
l leave you a whistle
so you can call me
During the day, you must stay here
but you can walk at night
On the roofs of the cathedral
under the stars
You don't hear me
you're already asleep
lt's a nasty world out there
You're beautiful when you sleep
ln your sleep
Esmeralda
Are you dreaming of your sun?
God this world is unfair
he's so handsome and l'm so ugly
Even if l gave you the moon
you'd still refuse to love me
And he, without making a move
without a word or a glance
And he, without making a move
without a word or a glance
Put some tenderness
into your big black eyes
You'll give yourself to him
and believe all of his oaths
You love him for his stature
without looking at what's inside
God this world is unfair
he a lord and l a lout
He'll give you the moon
when you've asked for nothing
God this world is unfair
go love your shining knight
The satin of your dark skin
is not made for tramps
My ugliness is an insult
to your brazen beauty
An error of mother nature's
didn't grant me any favors
God this world is unfair
our fate is not theirs
We don't have a fortune
but them, do they have hearts?
They're born into lace
to make love and war
But we poor earthworms
our lives are filled with beauty
And on which side is God
on the side of monstrances
Or on the side of those
who pray morning and night
This Jesus that we so adore
has He always preferred
The three wise men and their gold
above us poor shepherds?
God this life is cruel
for two searching hearts
l so ugly and you so fair
how could you possibly love me?
The night is so lovely
And l am so lonely
l don't want to die
l want to sing again
to dance and laugh
l don't want to die
Die
Before having loved
To live
For the one you love
Love
More than the love itself
To give
Without expectation
Free
To choose how you live
Without excommunication
Without interdictions
Free
Without a God or a country
The only baptism
The rain that falls from the sky
To live
For the one you love
Love
More than the love itself
To give
Without expectation
The two worlds that now separate us
One day will unite
Oh! l'd love to believe it
Even at the cost of my life
l'd give my life
To change history
To live
For the one you love
Love
More than the love itself
To give
Without expectation
Love
Like the night loves the day
Love
Until you die of love
Until you die of love

Esmeralda l'm dying
Oh! Little sister
ln the name of all my brothers
Listen to my prayer
Here you grew up
Here you belong
Shout it out loud
For me Esmeralda
We are
foreigners
Outlaws
Men

Homeless
They're a thousand or more
At the city doors
Soon they'll be
Ten thousand

The world will change
And intermix
They'll be milions
Who will demand
Asylum Asylum!
ln the name of the king
the order here is rendered
By the court of Paris
Young Esmeralda
You will be hanged
for the crime of sorcery
As for you
outlaws
You will be
expelled
Exiled
Deported

Frollo!
My master, my savior
Priest of the Lord
You have a heart after all
A heart
A heart that can love
A heart that can cry
A heart that can bleed
A heart that can kill
Look at her
Your fair Esmeralda
Remember Quasimodo
The one who danced there
on her stage
l handed her to the executioner
Because she didn't want me
You did that, you!
She will die
like Jesus on the cross
Look over there
On Place de Greve the gallows await
Your Esmeralda
They're hanging her
at the break of dawn
Ha ha ha ha......
Frollo!
Give her to me
Return her to me
Leave her with me
She's mine
My Esmeralda
Don't go
Stay with me
ln times to come
They will find buried
Our two skeletons entwined
To tell the whole universe
How much Quasimodo loved
Esmeralda the Zingara
He who God made so ugly
To help him carry his cross
To help him carry his cross
Devour my body, drink my blood
Vultures of Montfaucon
May death for all time
Unite our two names
Let my soul fly away
Far from the misery of the world
Let my love blend
With the light of the universe
With the light of the universe
Dance my Esmeralda
Sing my Esmeralda
Dance once more for me
l want you desperately
Dance my Esmeralda
Sing my Esmeralda
Let me go with you
To die for you is not death
Dance my Esmeralda
Sing my Esmeralda
Come and sleep in my arms
l want you desperately
Dance my Esmeralda
Sing my Esmeralda
Beyond the beyond
To die for you is not
death
Dance my Esmeralda
Sing my Esmeralda
Let me go with you
To die for you is not
To die for you is not
