PRESO 2
I did no wrong, God hears my prayer
PRISONERS
mercy, mercy, there is no God in prison
Prison 3
he will come for me, he swore to wait for me
PRISONERS

SOLDIER
firms!
Javert
bring me quickly to 23632,
come over here, today you will leave here,
Do you know what this is?
VALJEAN
Yes, I am free at last.
JAVERT
No, you will have freedom on parole, for being a thief.
VALJEAN
I stole just a loaf of bread
Javert
a robbery in the end
VALJEAN
I broke a cabinet.
well, my nephew was about to die,
we were hungry
Javert
And once again you will have unless you adhere to the law
VALJEAN
I know what I suffered for 20 years, tied to the law.
Javert
5 years for the bread,
the rest for trying to flee, if 23632
VALJEAN
My name is Jean Valjean
JAVERT
and mine Javert, you will remember me, never forget it, 23632
PRISONERS
mercy, mercy, chains will bind you
mercy, mercy, here they will bury you
VALJEAN
freedom, I breathe at last
the earth in peace
I can feel the wind in me
the world lives
from the spring I can drink
I will not forget my suffering
I do not forgive the humiliation
they are the guilty ones
everyone is
the day begins and I want to see
what this world is going to offer
FARMER
You must leave, I have already covered your salary, pack your bag and go away from here soon.
VALJEAN
this is half of a normal salary, it is a pittance for a day's wage
WORKER
Get lost! You are a criminal, you can't be like normal people.
VALJEAN
I already know what freedom is, being a burden to society.
that is the law
my parole is for them to call me a criminal
that is the law
I am the mud to be stepped on
a homeless dog
BISHOP
Come brother, are you tired?
and the night is cold here
even though we are very humble
There is a place for you.
bread that calms your appetite
wine that gives you warmth
and a bed where you can rest
of your sorrows and pain.
VALJEAN
he let me eat and I satisfied my hunger
his money was more than I earned
in 20 years that I never forgot them
but he trusted in me
the old man trusted me, I was grateful
he fulfilled his duty, I thanked him
and when he fell asleep I went to look for his silver
I took everything and off I go!
GUARDS
1.- tell the reverend soon
2.- and let's see if he believes you
SOLILOQUY.
Valjean
What did I make of myself?
My God, what have I done to myself?
I became a thief
and I ran like a dog
Why did I fall so low?
Has my time passed?
and I don't feel anything else
a brutal hatred
the infernal rage
and never the forgiveness
How can I know if I have salvation?
if there is a path for me
I lost him/her 20 years ago
my life is the war I will not win
I was hired.
I buried my name
they treated me like a vile scoundrel
for stealing a piece of bread.
why I allowed this man
buy my soul with love?
he treated me like a Christian
in him I trusted, he told me brother
he said that God touched my soul
I never saw him
I only knew hatred.
Well, I only received hate.
one by one I blamed without having compassion
that's what I was taught
They didn't give me an option.
POOR
at the end of this day you are just older,
What else can this fatal life offer you?
it is the struggle without end
and there is no way to see the exit
one more day to endure
and that doesn't matter
foreman
At the end of this day, nobody gives anything anymore.
POOR 1
I work more each time
POOR 2
I'm fed up with exploitation.
POOR 3
the less work they give us
POOR 4
or a roll
POOR
we give thanks for that
WOMAN 1
look at how the foreman is throwing sparks today
WOMAN 2
with his long hands and lion's breath
WOMAN 3
It is Fantine who can put it to rest.
WOMAN 1
look at their pants, you will see the reason
WOMAN 4
and the boss will never know
how hot her foreman is
WOMAN 5
if Fantine doesn't understand well what she should do
ALL
it will be in the street
POOR
At the end of this day another day ends
just enough to last a week
pay debts and rent
and if you can move, you work
working without stop
or you will have to ask for the crumbs
for a price that is fatal
when the end arrives!
GIRL
What do you have there, my innocent little sister?
What are Fantine, love poems?
dear Fantine
send more money
Cosette is sick
he needs a doctor
FANTINE
Give me that letter quickly, you don't care about it.
you also have things that you must keep silent
Or is there anyone here who can swear to me before God
who has no sin or anything else to hide
VALJEAN
Why are those two fighting?
Can someone separate them?
this is my factory not a circus
now ladies to be quiet
In my business, there is seriousness.
I am the mayor of the place
now calmly and without shouting
fix this that happened
foreman
let someone say what happened
GIRL
at the end of this day she was to blame
because she has a daughter and wants to hide her
it's the guy who she sends money to
and if he ever lacks, he must lie down
what if the boss knew
FANTINE
It is true, she is my daughter, Cosette is her name.
and one good day his father abandoned us
She lives with an innkeeper and his wife.
I pay for that
What harm do I do?
POOR
at the end of this day, she is the problem
and if one has it, then the others do too
we were left with only one bread
and she even has something for a detail
run quickly to that woman
or they will also put you on the street
it can go very wrong for us
when I reach the end
Foreman
you are such a bitch and I didn't see it
so much cat and I believed it
I should have known your little secret
GIRL
he lay down without ceasing and mocked you
GIRLS
will bring us more problems
he/she will do it again
GIRL
it should be running already
ALL
run to that woman
Foreman
well precious
get lost!
I dreamed a dream
FANTINE
Once there were men of Faith
that filled your being
with kind words
there was a time when I forgot
that love was blind
with their subtle voices
once upon a time
and it ended so badly
I dreamed a dream once
when life was smiling
I dreamed of a love that was immortal
I dreamed that God would forgive.
was innocent and unafraid
I let my dreams intoxicate me
I gave him all my love
without any secrets to keep from myself
but the world stalked me
with roars like thunder
hope robbed me
and shame turned her
spent a summer with me
and filled it with wonders
I gave him my innocence
and in the autumn, she left me
I still dream that he will be able to return

I have heard them non-stop,
I don't want any more protests.

VALJEAN
Stop it please Javert I think he is telling the truth.
Javert
Mr. Mayor!
Fantine

It was your duty, but she must go to the doctor for charity!
JAVERT
Mr. Mayor!
FANTINE
can it be?
VALJEAN
Where will you go?
he/she has no one else
I have seen you around.
I would like to help you.
What made you be
in a place like this?
FANTINE
Sir, I have already lost my pride
your mockery makes me feel bad
my cruel foreman fired me
he saw it and didn't care
I didn't harm anyone.
VALJEAN
Could I do that?
FANTINE
my daughter is dying
VALJEAN
to a soul without evil
FANTINE
and I only pray to God

VALJEAN
don't be quiet, fulfill your duty
JAVERT
I only know about another person.
what feat was achieved
he is a convicted fugitive
for 10 years he/she hid
but he could not run away forever
I have already found your hiding place.
we have already arrested him
and in court I will see him
the convict denies everything
What did you expect from a rogue?
no one has an escape
not even Jean Valjean
WELCOME
you say that the man denied it
and he doesn't seem to regret it or understand it
you say they will judge him today
and behind bars they put him back again
Can you be sure that man is not me?
JAVERT
I have known him for years.
I pursued him without giving quarter.
WHO AM I?
VALJEAN
believes that Valjean was arrested
and says that it is true
that man who caught
it's my opportunity
why save him
because to fix your mistake
if I have achieved so much already
COME TO ME

Mister Mayor

VALJEAN
before you say anything else, Javert
before returning to slavery
listen to me well
Javert
Do you think I'm crazy?
For years I chased you
people like that won't change
and more if it's you
JAVERT
you will never be able to change
you will never be able to change
no 23632
my guide is the law
there is nothing else
come here 23632
the wheel has turned
Jean Valjean is nothing anymore
do not speak anymore about your crime

Everyone is born to sin

I was born in jail
we are from the same........
the scum and perdition
Valjean
Believe what you want about me
a mission I must fulfill
you know nothing about me
I only stole a loaf of bread.
You don't know the truth
you would want to see me dead
but before I will fulfill my mission
I warn you, Javert
I am still a strong man
I have fury inside me
and I am right
I warn you, Javert.
nothing will stop me
if I have to kill you
I will do it without ...............

You're going to annoy me.
Your mother is sending me 10 francs

Well, justice will be done.
Look at you. What a great example.

these larvae and worms
they could devour him
I know who besieged him.
his name and long history
if you allow it, sir
I will take him to court
Where did that man go?
for what reasons did he/she run
THENARDIER
it is the noble knight
who should be stopped
he has a number on his chest
a convict must be
Javert
it could be that convict
that my hands return
he saw me and fled
and a tattoo was seen
with the young woman he was with
he ran away like a scoundrel
Could it be the one I'm looking for?
Could he be Jean Valjean?
Thenardier
since there is no accused
Inspector, can I leave?
and don't forget my dear
that I helped him fulfill
Javert
let it flee as much as it wants
I will have that criminal.
everyone to their tasks
clean this muck
STARS
JAVERT
today among the shadows
there is a fugitive
flee from God
far from good
God is a witness
that I will not give in
until I see it before me
until I see it before me
follow the path of evil
and I am the one who dictates The Creator
and who walks on the path of the righteous
it will do so without fear
but whoever falls
anger with Luzbel
to the fire..........
there are so many stars
they are countless
Coleman the sky
with order and light
my sentinels are
without faltering
they will be watching
they will be watching
they all keep their place
they continue on their punctual route
and they complete their cycles without ever varying
and this is always the same
but whoever falls will rage with Lucifer
to fire and to evil
and it must be so
this is how it is written
Eponine
Cosette, now I remember
Cosette cannot be
we both grew up together
where I ended up
My God, that was close
MARIUS
Who was that woman?
Eponine
Javert almost catches us.
and will never be able to
MARIUS
Eponine, do you know who she is?
Eponine
just another little rich girl
MARIUS
Eponine, find her.
Eponine
What would you give me?
MARIUS
everything and more
Eponine
who would have seen you talking like this
I don't know what you saw in her.
Just look at how they bring you
ah no, sir, money no
MARIUS
Eponine, do it for me
go look for his house
your father will not know
and no one will see you
My soul is lost.
Eponine
I told him/her and it can already be seen
there is so much that I know
She will find her.
COMBEFERRE
at Notre Dame everything is ready
FEUILLY
On Rue de Bac, they can't handle the anxiety.
COURFEYRAC
the whole village will fight
no one outside will remain
like gunpowder it ignited
and Paris joined us
ENJORLAS
it's approaching now
JOLY
What happened to you?
GRANTAIRE
a drink and tell us what happened
MARIUS
a ghost was
a ghost yes
I saw her like a ghost.
there it was and it vanished
GRANTAIRE
Will it be true?
What happened to him/her?
ENJORLAS
now it is time to see why we are here
it's not the time to see if we like opera or not
our struggle will have a very high price
it's not a child's game, it's reality
we are going to change the world and its color
today, red is rebellion
Today, the black is falsehood.
today, red is the reason
today, black is cruelty
MARIUS
if you could know what I felt today
when my soul vibrated
seeing someone so angelic
if you knew how the world changed too
a moment was enough
and the change was total
the uncertain real is
the uncertain becomes real
GRANTAIRE
today
MARIUS
red is my passion
GRANTAIRE
today
MARIUS
the black is my anxiety
ALL
today
MARIUS
red is my illusion
ALL
today
MARIUS
the black is solitude
ENJORLAS
Marius, you are not a child anymore.
I have no doubt about your love
but our cause is superior
what matters is your soul and your passion
the mission is more sacred
and our honor is at stake
ALL
today, red is rebellion
today, black is falsehood
today, red is the reason
Today, black is cruelty
ENJORLAS
Well Courfeyrac, did the ammunition arrive?
Feuilly, Combeferre, time is slipping away from us
Gavroche
hey!
ENJORLAS
Grantaire stop drinking
drunk, you will not be of any use to us
GRANTAIRE
Give me Brandi and I will fight.
with my breath I will overcome
GAVROCHE
listen to me!
General Lamarque died.
ENJORLAS
Lamarque died
Lamarque
his death is the crucial hour
his end arrived
he/she left
and this is our signal
at his burial the people will honor his name
and the revolution will be in their gazes
the fire of freedom
and his tomb..............rebellion
the day is today
and will be welcomed with strength and courage
let the battle cry resonate in the streets
joyful and triumphant all together they will come
They will join the riot!
ENJOY THEM
today the town will sing
with great courage and will
this is the music of a town
that claims freedom
if to the roll of the drum
your heart is beating
the light of the new day will finally come
COMBEFERRE
you will join the cause
that will set us all free
throughout the city
the barricades will rise
COURFEYRAC
come join the people
Finally, the chains will fall!
ALL
Today the people will sing
with great courage and will
this is the music of a town
what demands freedom
if at the drum roll
your heart is beating
the light of the new day will finally come
FEUILLY
you will give yourself to your homeland
for this longing to achieve?
a few will live
and some of us are going to die
the blood the fields of France
of honor is going to cover!
ALL
today the people will sing
with great courage and will
this is the music of a town
who claims freedom
if at the roll of the drum
your heart is beating
the light of the new day will finally come
TODAY FINALLY
COSETTE
Today I know that my life has just begun.
Is it possible for me to fall in love so quickly?
Now what happened to you, Cosette?
you have been so alone here
there is so much to learn
there is so much doubt in me
today finally
I realize that there are many unanswered questions.
today at last
From the silence, the memory of that distant song comes to me.
I know that over there
VALJEAN
my Cosette in this solitude
how sad and thoughtful you are
I swear I would do anything
to see you happier
how sad it must be
I already know.
VALJEAN
don't talk anymore
don't talk anymore that time is dead
it's over
it's better to forget what happened
COSSETTE
today finally
I am older
and I would truly like to know the past
tell me
I want to see
VALJEAN
you will know
God will say the moment
and you will know it,
you will know
MARIUS
today at last
like a divine song in my life, the light burst in
today finally
in my life the past goes away
and the future appeared before me
Eponine, it is you who brought me here.
it's for you
that in heaven I am and she is here
Today my world is filled with its sweet song
Eponine
your words are daggers in my heart
today at last
I know it's not for me,
and it never will be
I already know.
because he
he/she does not see me
Marius, Eponine
today finally
someone touches my soul at last
MARIUS
in front of me
EPONINE
right here
MARIUS
fills me with love
your celestial light
Everything is going wrong for me.
My God, why?
I don't even know your name
my lady
will you say it?
don't be cruel
COSSETTE
fills me with love
your sweet song
MARIUS
my name is Marius Pontmercy
COSSETTE
I am Cosette
Marius
Cosette, I don't know what else to say.
COSETTE
don't say anymore
MARIUS
I got lost
COSETTE
here you are
MARIUS
I am filled with light
MARIUS, COSETTE
the night is gone
Marius
I will never stray away from you
Cosette, Cosette
COSSETTE
I will always be by your side.
MARIUS
Is it true?
COSSETTE
yes it is
MARIUS
fills me with love
Eponine
I didn't have it and I lost it
Marius
I am filled with you
MARIUS
from your gaze ...........
Eponine
There is no bitterness, it couldn't be.
COSSETTE
and me too
Eponine
he will never say that
never to me
MARIUS
.........here
EPONINE
never to me
never to me
COSETTE
always like this
EPONINE
it fills with love
that he never felt it for me
COSETTE, MARIUS
because a dream is not
it's not a dream
it's true
Eponine
Parnasse, what are you doing so far away?
this is not your place
MONTPARNASSE
to the owner of this house
we are going to steal it
he is the old type
that in the square got away from us
he is a convict
he safely stored his loot here
Eponine
Oh God, someone help me!
Oh God, what will I tell him?
will he think it's a trap
and I will be an accomplice
What am I going to do?
What will I say?
I have to warn you
I will find a way
MONTPARNASSE
He lives here
CLAQUESOUS
the old man can continue
BABET
it hides like a reptile
I have seen it leave from here
THENARDIER
I smell a good haul
Cosette bought 10 years ago
a misery it gave me
and the Lord owes them to me
he will pay me
BRUJON
what else do I get
we have to steal
we have to work
I want to collect
THENARDIER
shut up already
you will get paid
BRUJON
Who is there?
THENARDIER
Who the hell are you?
BABET
it's your little daughter Eponine
you have no choice but to pretend
THENARDIER
Eponine, get lost
this is not for you
you are just being an obstacle
Eponine
I know this house
there is nothing for you
they will not be able to steal here
only the old man and his daughter are
THENARDIER
don't disturb anymore
get out of here
I am going to give you
shut your snout already
BRUJON
it has softened already
usually happens
MONTPARNASSE
goodbye Ponine
just leave already
Eponine
I am going to scream
I am going to warn you!
THENARDIER
shout and you will see
You will regret it for years!
CLAQUESOUS
what a great gift
delicious delicacy
to see a cat and her father
to fight over a bone
WITCH
don't do it again
Eponine
I warned you that I would do it.
I warned that I would do it
aaahh!
THENARDIER
we need to run
far from here
don't wait any longer
let's go already
you are going to see
you will pay for it
I will make you scream
you are going to suffer
MARIUS
your scream was
he frightened them away
VALJEAN
for God Cosette
I heard a loud scream
and voices that were having a discussion
COSSETTE
I was the one who screamed, dad
I heard them and felt terror
they fled upon hearing my voice
Valjean
Cosette, my love,
What can I do for you?
COSSETTE
behind the wall, I saw three men
three men near the gate
VALJEAN
it's a notice for me,
shadows of my past are
and if it's Javert?
Did my hiding place get found?
we must leave before they can return
We will flee from these shadows that will never leave us.
tomorrow heading to the sea
and they will never reach the ship
Come on Cosette, don't say anything more and let's pack.
Tomorrow we have to leave
Come on Cosette, there's another door to close.
and one more day to live
ONE MORE DAY
VALJEAN
one more day
today my destiny will change again
it is a calvary that will not end
being here is a danger
they will surely come back again
one more day
MARIUS
my life has just begun
how to live if it's not with you?
VALJEAN
one day more
MARIUS, COSETTE
Tomorrow you will be far away
How do I endure such punishment?
Eponine
another day and I am alone
Marius
Will we see each other again?
Eponine
another day and he ignores me
MARIUS, COSETTE
I was born for you
EPONINE
in his life nobody I am
MARIUS, COSETTE
Oh my love, I promised you
EPONINE
he never looked at me
ENJORLAS
another day to win
MARIUS
Should I leave Cosette?
ENJORLAS
the barricades will rise
MARIUS
Will I join the fight?
ENJORLAS
the whole town will unite
MARIUS
and for her I will die
ENJORLAS
come and join the fight
STUDENTS

Javert
another day in the uprising
with a blow I will finish
to these naive toddlers
I will give them cruel punishment
VALJEAN

VALJEAN

Tomorrow I will be far away

ALL
Tomorrow God will arrange it.
and they will fulfill their destiny
ENJORLAS
in this place the barricade will be
right in the middle of Paris that ours will be
They already know what to do, they should not be afraid.
Javert
I can get it.
I know who they are.
I fought in their ranks
when I was young I was
PROUVAIRE
Everyone will fight today!
GRANTAIRE
Do you really think so?
sit down and wait
THE LEGGS
they will fulfill!
MARIUS
hey young boy, I saw you already
God! Eponine where are you going?
EPONINE
I know I shouldn't be here
but I want to be with you
MARIUS
Go Eponine on time these
Get out! Or they might shoot you.
EPONINE
if you are worried about me
Is it that I am starting to appeal to you?
MARIUS
could you do something for me
I know that you are the solution
take this letter to Cosette
and ask God to still be there
Eponine
how little he sees, he will never know
I bring a letter monsieur addressed to your daughter Cosette
from a boy from the barricade who is on Rue de Villette
VALJEAN
Give me that letter please.
Eponine
he said it's for Cosette
Valjean
I give my word that my daughter will know what is written there.
Tell that young man that she will read his letter tomorrow.
be careful, hide
it's dangerous, take care of yourself
Dear Cosette:
You are my whole soul and suddenly you leave.
It's only been a day since I met you and my world changed.
if in battle I must fall this letter is my goodbye
now that I know you love me too
it is hard to die
May God watch over me and may I soon be with you.
Pray for Marius and he will pray for you.
I AM ALONE
Eponine
again alone without knowing where to go or who to tell
without a home, without a friend to smile at or greet
the night arrives like this, I can dream that he is here
Sometimes I walk alone when everyone has fallen asleep
I think of him and I am happy because that dream is what I ask for.
The city sleeps now, I can believe it's real.
I am alone, believing it by my side
I only go with him when dawn breaks.
without seeing me, he hugs me and gives me shelter
and when I get lost, I think of him and he is with me
the rain of silver is the dew
fog and light merge in the river
in the night there are trees of stars
and all I see is the two forever united
and I know that this is not true
that I am talking to myself and he is not here
and although I know it is not reality
I still dream that there will be a way
I love him and at the end of the night
he is not here, the river is just a river.
my world without him is different
the trees are simple
and it's strange so many people
I love him and learn every day
that this is just fantasy
without seeing me, their world would continue
On the barricades
ENJORLAS
cover yourselves!
OFFICIAL
Hey rebels, listen to me already.
no one comes to help them in their struggle
they are alone, surrender
or they will die soon
ENJORLAS
Today their deceit will end, our people will triumph
STUDENTS
Today your deception will end, our people will triumph.
Return of Javert
FEUILLY
he's back!
JAVERT
listen to me, I kept my promise
in their rows between
I counted his men
what I saw I will tell you
I must warn you they have extra weapons
its advantage is total
everyone here is in mortal danger
ENJORLAS
with faith
If you know the plan, we will make it fail.
in fighting the strategy..................
We will overcome your power!
ALL
Let's go!
JAVERT
I could hear the whole plan.
For today, they will not attack us.
they want to inflict hunger
and they will launch their offensive
GAVROCHE
lie!
have a good night my dear inspector
I know this man, his name is Javert.
so don't believe him because he is quite the talker
and may this teach them who their supporter is
a child knows well
if it's time to fight
it seems insignificant
but it is not trustworthy
a boy can be stronger than a dragon
David and Goliath are a good example.
and this time the mouse caught the cat
GRANTAIRE
Good Gavroche friend,
you are the best today!
PROVING
What are we going to do now with this infamous traitor?
COURFEYRAC
let him die!
ENJORLAS
take good care of it at the tavern over there
the judge of Inspector Javert the people will be
JAVERT
.....................
give me death at once
may all traitors die
and cursed be his judge
ENJORLAS
take it
don't talk anymore
you will have a fair trial
JOLY
there is a boy climbing the barricade!
ENJORLAS
is safe
to judge it!
MARIUS
Oh God, what are you doing?
Ponine, why take the risk?
Have you seen my beloved?
What made you come back?
EPONINE
I already took your letter.
and I gave it to her father
he will deliver it later
I don't think I can resist.
MARIUS
Eponine, what's wrong?
your face is very pale
God, you are hurt everywhere
Eponine, why?
Eponine
I am fine already
Mister Marius
it doesn't hurt me anymore
it's just rain
what harm will it do me
I already feel better this way.
I will take care of you
and it will not let me
the rain will make the flower grow
MARIUS
you will live Ponine
God please
I will heal you by filling you with love
Eponine
come closer, hug me,
Take care of me, love me
MARIUS
you will see the sunrise
and you will live a lot
I will never leave
EPONINE
it's just rain
he/she will go
Eponine
I feel better now...
MARIUS
and so...
EPONINE
it will be reborn...
MARIUS
will be reborn...
the flower
ENJORLAS
She was the first to fall.
in this barricade
he gave his life
MARIUS
her name was Eponine
his life was hard
and did not show fear
COMBEFERRE
she is worth fighting for
PROUVAIRE
it won't be in vain
THE LEGS
he covered himself with glory
Night of anguish
JOLY
a soldier is climbing up
Who is it?

VALJEAN
I am just another volunteer.
JOLY

SENTRY
Why are you wearing a uniform?
VALJEAN

VALJEAN

JOLY

GRANTAIRE

SENTRY

ENJORLAS

he/she will not be able to tell it
STUDENT 1
There is a platoon advancing towards the barricade!
STUDENT 2
they bring reinforcements
They are 50 or more!
ENJORLAS
fire!
THE LEGGS
watch them run
GRANTAIRE
the war was won
ENJORLAS
they will return again and attack
for joining the mutiny
and the reason to support
if we succeed sir
thank you I will give you
VALJEAN
Don't thank me.
do me a favor
ENJORLAS
if that is within my power
VALJEAN
Give me the spy Javert and I will take care of him.
Javert
the law was distorted
the world went crazy
ENJORLAS
He/She will be your judge.
stay alert
let's go friends
to its positions
the night is going to fall
Valjean
and well Javert
Javert
you will finally fulfill your dream
forget about it
you know how to use the dagger well
Valjean
don't say anymore
You are safe with me
JAVERT
What are you going to do?
VALJEAN
get out of here
Javert
I will do it, Valjean.
I will catch you
Valjean
Get out of here!
JAVERT
a thief forever a thief
he has always been a criminal
for my life to forgive
You want to blackmail me
Yes, shoot, it is your duty.
if you don't do it
I have to do
that you respond to Javert
VALJEAN
it's not like that
and it has never been this way
ENJORLAS
Montague guard Courfeyrac
when there is light they will attack
everyone be alert
the struggle will resume
the final will be
and no one will sleep
Marius rests
I offer here
FEUILLY
I toast here
for yesterday
for the songs I learned
PROUVAIRE
for the beautiful ladies I fell in love with
JOLY
for those I invited to my bed
ALL
I toast here for you as well.
GRANTAIRE
I toast here for yesterday
and the fear that you will have
if they kill us, who will remember us?
Who can care about our life?
Is dying just another game?
WOMEN
may our friendship live forever
ALL
may this wine seal our brotherhood
MEN
(then the women repeat it)
it's for you....
also....
for me....
MARIUS
I no longer care about dying
if I am far from you
Without Cosette, my life is worth nothing more.
My Cosette, will you cry for me if I die?
Will you cry, Cosette, for me?
Take care of it
VALJEAN
Oh, Lord
my prayer
I take you
from my heart
young is
with fear
take care of it
with Your love
go for it
Go for it
go for him
it's like the son I longed for
the one I dreamed of for years
time passes and goes away
it ends and it will not return
and my end is very near
give peace
give love
young is
just a boy Sir
can you give
and remove
take it to its home
if it is dying
I am yours
take care of it
go for him
go for him
go for it
ENJORLAS
the people did not attend
they have left us alone due to their great fear
the town did not listen
we will not leave alone those who left us
no more deaths already
Women and men with children must leave here.
Fire!
ENJORLAS
Feuilly report the situation to me
FEUILLY
we are almost out of ammunition
MARIUS
I will go to the street
I must find in the bodies
park to pick up
many bullets for use
ENJORLAS
It is very dangerous
I will not let you go!
MARIUS
It is a risk that I will take as well.
VALJEAN
I will go
he is still very young
old I am nothing I can lose
GAVROCHE
I am much faster
I am going to go!
THE PAST
Hey Gavroche, stay!
JOLY
someone get him down from there!
GAVROCHE
look at me, I'm here now!
Death of Gavroche
GAVROCHE
a child knows well
if it's time to fight
it seems like a small thing
but it is not to be trusted
OFFICIAL
Hey rebels, listen to me now!
ALL
no!
OFFICIAL
The people in Paris have gone to sleep
there is nothing more to do
everything is over
his struggle in vain is
ENJORLAS
we will die with honor

COMBEFERRE

COURFEYRAC
they will pay for each man
ENJORLAS

here I wait for you
23632
SOLILOQUY
JAVERT
What should I do?
who the hell is he really?
that I fell into his trap
and he let me go free
it was the ideal moment to seal with my lips
to cover all
and erase its past
What happened to him/her?
TIME
WOMAN 1
do you remember them
going to fight?
WOMAN 2
at the barricade where they were going to die
WOMAN 3
they did not change
this hostile world
they were just kids playing with a rifle
WOMAN 4
it was just a student dream
WOMAN 5
nothing changes
WOMAN 6
everything remains the same
WOMAN 7
they left us alone when they died for their ideal
WOMAN 8
same story
Why cry?
WOMAN 2
Why do we pray if no one is going to listen?
ALL
turns, turns
always returns time
turns of
time goes by, comes and goes
they add the seconds, hours
days, years go by
nothing changes
nothing will change
................
spin and spin
and just goes around
MARIUS
an indescribable sorrow,
that will never leave me,
there are only chairs at the tables,
my friends are no longer here
they spoke of revolution
and the flame ignited,
they sang to tomorrow
and tomorrow never came
from that table they saw,
another world reborn
and they rose with their voices,
I can hear them here
with his word and his song
their souls merged,
but the dream faded away, it left
Oh, sorry, sorry friends
I saved myself and you did not.
COSETTE
always like this
you get better every day
your steady step is
the worst has gone
MARIUS
always like this
I always ask like this
who from the barricade
brought me here
COSSETTE
don't think about it anymore Marius
VALJEAN
she was never mine
COSSETTE
I am filled with you
VALJEAN
she is young
COSSETTE
Today is the happiest day
Valjean
free is
MARIUS
Cosette, Cosette
VALJEAN
..................his youth
COSSETTE
from the moment I saw you
MARIUS
I gave up
Valjean
yes it is
MARIUS
at your feet
VALJEAN
that's right
COSETTE
to your voice
COSETTE, MARIUS
a dream is not
Valjean
................of love
COSETTE, MARIUS
it's not a dream
it's true!
Valjean
............ love
for you
MARIUS
Sir, this is a day I will never forget.
I give my gratitude for giving me Cosette.
and our home will be
a home for the three
and in test our love
we swear before God
what a father you will be
a father of the two
VALJEAN
my son, don't say anymore
there is something you should know
Once upon a time, there was a man.
John Valjean
a loaf of bread stole and saved his nephew
with twenty winters of pain
he cleansed his crime with sweat
some time ago his parole was revoked
and he never confessed it to his daughter
today for Cosette he has to face it
well, they could hurt her
the day has come and it must go
From today he has to leave
Who am I?
Who am I?
Marius
It is Jean Valjean
sir, if for years he remained silent
Why did he/she have to speak?
VALJEAN
What can I gain?
I cannot hide from my own conscience.
MARIUS
if he goes, what I say to Cosette
she won't believe it
Valjean
Tell her that it pains me to cry every time I leave.
Promise me, sir, that Cosette will never know.
MARIUS
I give you my word
Valjean
Do you think I shouldn't see her anymore?
MARIUS
For Cosette's sake, you will leave.
CHORUS
celebration bells are ringing
the choirs sing ........ with fervor
they sing the song.............
...........................
CREATED
the baron and baroness of Thénard
they wish to pay their respects to the groom
THENARDIER
Where did I see him?
Wasn't it at the Duke Depiu's house?
when he vomited the fondue on his wife's feet.
MARIUS
no, Baron de Thénard,
Well, I cannot aspire to nobility.
Get lost Thénardier!
you are easy to recognize
Mrs. Thenardier
He caught you, you see, give his little gift to the Monsieur, tell him once and for all.
THENARDIER
this wedding was not the ideal occasion
but 500 francs wouldn't be so bad
MARIUS
Speak, don't make me wait anymore
Mrs. Thenardier
it's coming... wait, wait
Thenardier
I saw him without a doubt go down to the drain Jean Valjean
he ran away, he didn't see me, he carried a corpse
It was easy to follow and I also found a souvenir.
MARIUS
Mine is, I'm not wrong, it's surely God's sign.
THENARDIER
something more, think about it
MARIUS
The truth hid from me, Jean Valjean was the one who saved me.
If so, here you go
and stay very far from me
Come Cosette, come my love, blessings the Lord sends us.
THENARDIER
Isn't it colossal?

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . next to the elite
there are princes
Jews are
kings too
and some gay guy
to all of Paris
I already tricked myself
I finally got in.
to her 'socialite'
pillows of the feast
masters at dancing
we did not let the opportunity pass
honest people you see
anywhere
but the poor will always be
going to mass on Sundays
and asking the Lord
Epilogue
VALJEAN
I only count in the shadows
the hours to finally sleep
I dreamed in a dream of my Cosette
that I came here with my
just upon reaching the end
today was their wedding and I plead like this
FANTINE
blessed be monsieur
Valjean
I am ready, Fantine
FANTINE
today your mission ends
Valjean
I have reached the end.
FANTINE
to my daughter gave her love
Valjean
she is part of me
Fantine
You will go with God.
COSSETTE
Dad, Dad I can't understand.
Are you feeling well?
the worst I imagined
Valjean
Cosette, my love
Can you forgive me?
for God, Cosette
I dreamed with this day
MARIUS
You must forgive a fool.
I am the one who will never be able to pay you.
thanks to you, I am still alive
please, I beg you to grant me your forgiveness
Cosette, your father is a saint.
when I was injured
until the barricade was
it loaded me up to here
he took care of me
for you
VALJEAN
finally you are
here by my side
I can die in peace.
my blessing has arrived
COSETTE
you will live, dad you will live
it is not time to say goodbye yet
VALJEAN
Yes Cosette, forbid me to die
I will try to fulfill.
today at last
I write my confession
read it after he is asleep
it is the story of those who have loved you
your mother gave your life
and put you in my care
Fantine
come here to where there are no chains
you have finally left your sorrows behind
Blessed God, admit him into your Kingdom
VALJEAN
forgive my sins and receive me by your side
Eponine
take me
let's go to His Glory
........my love
love that is always eternal
TOWN
today the people will sing
from the shadows will emerge
this is the music of a village
that wants to unite with the light
someone suffers oppression
the eternal flame will shine
even the darkest night will have an end
they will live in freedom in the gardens of the Lord
they will leave the sword behind
they will return to their work
