FANTINE: |
|
Cosette, it's turned so cold |
|
Cosette, it's past your bedtime |
|
You've played the day away, and soon it will be night |
|
Come to me, Cosette the light is fading |
|
Don't you see the evening star appearing? |
|
Come to me, and rest against my shoulder |
|
How fast the minutes fly away and every minute colder. |
|
Hurry near, another day is dying |
|
Don't you hear, the winter wind is crying? |
|
There's a darkness which comes without a warning |
|
But I will sing you lullabies and wake you in the morning. |
|
VALJEAN: |
|
Oh Fantine, your time is running out |
|
But Fantine, I swear this on my life |
|
FANTINE: |
|
Look M'sieur, where all the children play... |
|
VALJEAN: |
|
Be at peace |
|
Be at peace evermore |
|
FANTINE: |
|
My Cosette... |
|
VALJEAN: |
|
Shall live in my protection |
|
FANTINE: |
|
Take her now... |
|
VALJEAN: |
|
Your child will want for nothing |
|
FANTINE: |
|
Good M'sieur, you come from God in heaven |
|
VALJEAN: |
|
And none will ever harm Cosette as long as I am living |
|
FANTINE: |
|
Take my hand, the night grows ever colder |
|
VALJEAN: |
|
And I will keep you warm |
|
FANTINE: |
|
Take my child, I give her to your keeping |
|
VALJEAN: |
|
Take shelter from the storm |
|
FANTINE: |
|
For God's sake, please stay 'till I am sleeping |
|
And tell Cosette I love her, and I'll see her when I wake... |
