[00:10.400]	Glitter and be gay, that’s the part I play:
[00:21.530]	Here I am in Paris, France.
[00:32.710]	Forced to bend my soul to a sordid role, victimized by bitter, bitter circumstance.
[00:54.310]	Alas for me! Had I remained beside my ladymother, my virtue had remained unstained
[01:08.310]	Until my maiden hand was gained by some grand duke or other.
[01:28.110]	Ah, it was not to be; harsh necessity brought me to this gilded cage.
[01:50.170]]	Born to higher things, here I droop my wings, ah!
[02:03.290]	Singing of a sorrow nothing can assuage.
[02:12.420]	And yet, of course, I rather like to revel, ha ha!
[02:18.200]	I have no strong objection to champagne, ha ha!
[02:22.520]	My wardrobe is expensive as the devil, ha ha! Perhaps it is ignoble to complain…
[02:32.470]	Enough, enough, of being basely tearful!
[02:40.070]	I’ll show my noble stuff by being bright and cheerful!
[02:47.530]	Ha ha ha…(She begins to remove her jewelry and hand it over to the old lady)
[03:40.850]	(parlando) pearls and ruby rings.. Ah, how can worldly things take the place of honor lost?
[03:51.170]	Can they compensate for my fallen state, purchased as they were at such an awful cost?
[04:04.010]	Bracelets…lavalieres… can they dry my tears? Can they blind my eyes to shame?
[04:14.280]	Can the brightest brooch shield me from reproach? Can the purest diamond purify my name?
[04:26.010]	And yet, of course, these trinkets are endearing. Ha ha!
[04:30.170]	I’m oh, so glad my sapphire is a star, ha ha!
[04:31.280]	I rather like a twenty carat earring, haha!
[04:35.020]	If I’m not pure, at least my jewels are! Enough, enough!
[04:44.700]	I’ll take their diamond necklace, and show my noble stuff by being gay and reckless!
[04:56.090]	ha ha(The jewelry gone, she begins to undress)
[05:24.100]	Observe how bravely I conceal the dreadful, dreadful shame I feel.
[05:33.280]	Ha ha…(breaks into wild laughter)
