Joly |
|
Here comes a man in uniform |
|
What brings you to this place? |
|
Valjean |
|
I come here as a volunteer |
|
Joly |
|
Approach and show your face. |
|
Sentry |
|
You wear an army uniform. |
|
Valjean |
|
That's why they let me through. |
|
Joly |
|
You've got some years behind you sir. |
|
Valjean |
|
There's much that I can do. |
|
Joly |
|
You see that prisoner over there? |
|
Grantaire |
|
A volunteer like you! |
|
Combeferre |
|
A spy who calls himself Javert! |
|
Grantaire |
|
He's going to get it too... |
|
Sentry |
|
They're getting ready to attack! |
|
Enjolras |
|
Take this and use it well! |
|
But if you shoot us in the back, |
|
You'll never live to tell. |
|
Random Voices |
|
Platoon of sappers advancing toward the barricade! |
|
Troops behind them, fifty men or more! |
|
Enjolras |
|
FIRE! |
|
[Gunfire is heard.] |
|
Feuilly |
|
Sniper! |
|
[Valjean shoots a sniper who is aiming at Enjolras.] |
|
Lesgles |
|
See how they run away! |
|
Grantaire |
|
By God we've won the day! |
|
Enjolras |
|
They will be back again, |
|
Make an attack again. |
|
[To Valjean.] |
|
For your presence of mind |
|
For the deed you have done |
|
I will thank you M'sieur |
|
When our battle is won. |
|
Valjean |
|
Give me no thanks M'sieur |
|
There is something that you can do. |
|
Enjolras |
|
If it is in my power... |
|
Valjean |
|
Give me the spy Javert |
|
Let me take care of him |
|
Javert |
|
The law is inside out |
|
The world is upside down |
|
Enjolras |
|
Do what you have to do, |
|
The man belongs to you. |
|
The enemy may be regrouping. Hold yourself in readiness. |
|
Come my friends, back to your positions. |
|
The night is falling fast... |
