Act 1.

Overture

All stories, begin the same
Nothing new under the moon
For when one star exstinguishes
Another one must light up

Certainly, the rain and the mistake
The night and the guitares
One can believe it
Each of their words and their looks

All the stories have their history
Do not listen that which one tells you
Love, has that which counts
One will love so strong
And the, softly, with wanting it
One passes from the heart to memory

All the stories, begin the same
Nothing new under the moon
Here is, that of Romeo and Juliette

Verona

The Prince
You who believe you have seen it all
You who have travelled, you who have read
There is nothing more to astonish you
Welcome to Verona

You who find that man is good
Because he sings pretty songs
If you find this one is good
Welcome to Verona

Of course here, it's like elsewhere
The men aren't the worst, nor the best
Hey! You who come to us tonight
By mistake or by chance

Chorus
You're in Verona, beautiful Verona
The town where everyone hates each other
We want to leave but we remain
Here it's not the love of kings
Here two families make the law
No need to choose your side
We chose it for you long ago
You're in Verona, we talk of Verona
Here the venom of hate runs in our lives
As it does in our veins
Of course our gardens are flowering
Of course our women are beautiful, and so
It's like a paradise on earth
But our souls are in hell
You're in Verona

The Prince
You who sleep at night
Certain to be loved
Here, we don't trust anybody
Welcome to Verona

It's true we are blessed by the gods
Here we die but we die old
Here everyone has a crown of their own
It's like that in Verona

Of course here, it's like elsewhere
The men aren't the worst, nor the best
Hey! You who come to us tonight
By mistake or by chance

You're in Verona, beautiful Verona
The town where everyone hates each other
We want to leave but we remain
Here it's not the love of kings
Here two families make the law
No need to choose your side
We chose it for you long ago
You're in Verona, we talk of Verona
Here the venom of hate runs in our lives
As it does in our veins
Of course our gardens are flowering
Of course our women are beautiful, and so
It's like a paradise on earth
But our souls are in hell
You're in Verona

Verona! Verona!
You're in Verona...

The Hatred

Lady Capulet
God who sees all, look at us, look at you
In our homes runs a poison that has a name
The hatred, the hatred
Like a snake in your souls
The hatred, the hatred
Who makes you judge, but condemns you
The hatred, the hatred
I see it burning in your eyes
The hatred, the hatred
Who makes us unhappy
I hate the hatred

Lady Montaigu
I confess to you, I can only dislike you
Why must there be in this town we love so much
The hatred, the hatred
In the name of the Father, in the name of the Son
The hatred, the hatred
That makes us your accomplices

Lady Capulet
The hatred, the hatred
It's the courage the cowards lack
The hatred, the hatred
The sister of love but we hide it

Lady Montaigu
I curse you for all those nights
Hearing you without understanding you
You forget even the happiness
The only one that counts, is hate

Lady Capulet
You look at her and are seduced
This whore of hatred who takes all of you
You look and you are nothing
Only puppets in her hands
How can we make in her name
All this crimes and victims

Lady Montaigu
The hatred, it comes to lie in your souls
Then listen to the voice of the women,
The hatred...

ONE DAY

Romeo
I am loved by women, I who am not yet 20 years old
I know all their traps, they hurt me so often
I am loved by women, without loving them
I made them cry, when they saw me tired
Of their white skin, bored with pretending to love them
I did not truly love them
Love, I want it now

Juliette
What can I know of love when I am only 16 years old?
Of course I know that someday but, that someday will be when?
What can one know of life, when yours hasn't begun?
And one dies of impatience waiting for him
Who you will love, him, who will always say to you
The words, these words that one waits for
Love, I want it now

Romeo
One day she will come
One day she will be my love

Juliette
One day, he will come, that day
Where I will live love, one day

Romeo & Juliette
One day, one will forget these days, to trail the heavy heart
One day it will be our turn to love one day
One day, the same vow will be made
I was alone, one will be two, and will love so strong
In our souls, in our bodies
And when death comes, we will still love each other, one day
One day, the same vow will be made
I was alone, one will be two, and will love so strong
In our souls, in our bodies
And when death comes, we will still love each other, one day

The Request of Marriage

Paris
I am 30 years old, I am charming
I love your child, give her to me
I am a good match
I have princes and kings behind me
I will pay your debts, if you have any
I will throw parties, to honour you
But on my knee I implore you
Give me Juliette, because I adore her

Count Capulet
Dear friend, I am suprised
That your love is that much
Grave error to take a heart
Before its time
I frighten you but she is so tender
It will have to wait
Come, though, tonight, you can see her
But for pity, at least have
A little patience, beginning with a dance
But me, I think, but when I think of it
Grave error, to take a heart
Before its time, before its time

You Must Marry

Lady Capulet
Your father no longer loves me
He only loved me
When he knew
He wanted to marry
Love came to him
When he desired me
When he saw me naked
Don't look shocked

I was beautiful like the rest
I was beautiful like you
He had soft eyes
And he looked at only me
And then time passed
And our love is gone

Lady Capulet and The Nurse
We all have the same dream
To love until the fever
Juliette you are old enough
To think of marriage

The Nurse
Now listen to your mother

Lady Capulet
Now listen to your nurse
Men!

The Nurse
Men!
Men are so fragile

Lady Capulet
They don't know who we are

The Nurse
That's to say it's not easy

Lady Capulet
I hate men

The Nurse
Me, I adore them

Lady Capulet
They do nothing to you

The Nurse
I know, but I still hope
Juliette listen to your mother
Of course, she's right
If she took lovers
She had her reasons

Lady Capulet
Don't believe that jealousy
I was a good wife
You father is my only man
He knows who I am

Lady Capulet and The Nurse
Life is too short
Life is too beautiful
For you to travel your road
Without passing by the church

Lady Capulet
Your dress is already ready

The Nurse
I know, it's me who made it

Lady Capulet and The Nurse
We are weak women
In a vale of tears
You will avenge us
You must marry

Lady Capulet
Now I beg you

The Nurse
I beg you also

Lady Capulet and The Nurse
Life is too short
Life is too beautiful
For you to travel your road
Without passing by the church
One day you will thank us
You must take a husband

The Kings of the World

Romeo
The kings of the world live at the top
They have the most beautiful view but there is a but
They don't know what we think of them down here
They don't know that here it's us who are kings

Benvolio
The kings of the world do what they want
They have everyone around them but they are alone
In their castles on high, they are bored
While down here we dance all the night

Refrain We, we make love we live life
Day after day, night after night
What is the point of being alive
If we have to live on our knees
We know that time is like the wind
Living is important
We have no morals
We know we do nothing wrong

Mercutio
The kings of the world fear everything
They confuse the dogs and the wolves
They make traps where they will fall one day
They protect themselves from everything, even from love

Romeo and Benvolio
The kings of the world fight with each other
There is not room for two of them
And us down here don't fight their wars
We don't even know why all these games of kings are necessary

Refrain until fade out

The Madness

Mercutio
What makes men run?
Do we know really, who we are?
What makes the boats leave?
What makes the birds fly?
What makes the idiots smile?
Leave the kings where they are and ask youself the question
So Benvolio, why don't you ever run? Huh? C'mon...

What makes our souls burn?
Why do we run like this, after women?
Me the only one I really like
The one who knows my torments
The one who took me as a lover
You will never see her
And me, I don't know who she is

The madness, the madness, the madness, the madness, she my friend, it's the madness
The madness, who tells you, go ahead, you cry or you laugh
Yes, I owe her all she taught me
The madness, the madness, she holds me in her hands and I am well
Mad with anger

Benvolio
Mad with chagrin, with jealousy

Together
With joy, or mad with nothing

Mercutio
She is the most beautiful of mistresses

Benvolio
The only one who knows the caresses

Together
That wisdom doesn't know

Romeo
She is served or she is seen

Together
But we know she's there
The madness, the madness, the madness, the madness,
She is our friend, the madness
The madness

Mercutio
She takes us
The madness

Romeo
She returns us
The madness

Benvolio
Completely, oh

Together
You cry or you laugh, it's the madness
The madness

Romeo
She involves us
The madness

Benvolio
She undoes us
The madness

Together
The madness, she troubles us, the madness, but we love her

I'm Afraid

Romeo
You, my friends, my blood brothers
You who I've loved for so long a time
Like me, on your shoulders
Do you feel death pass by you
You who laugh at everything, at nothing
Who mock tomorrow
Me, Romeo who saw upclose
This night, my friends, I confess to you

I'm afraid, I'm afraid
That our shadows so light
Tomorrow turn into stone
That the stars which guide us
One day lead us to the end
I'm afraid, I'm afraid, I'm afraid, I'm afraid, I'm afraid
That tomorrow everything stops
That trouble settles into our heads
That winds of chance will be caught in our guitares

You my friends, my brothers in taste
You who want to taste all
The fruits of the heart are most tender
But they die when December comes
You who are young
Full of courage and boredom
Then listen to someone of your age
Who this evening sees the coming shipwreck

I'm afraid, I'm afraid
Of the life that awaits us
Of the lies of our parents
For us everything is easy but happiness is fragile
I'm afraid, I'm afraid, I'm afraid, oh I'm afraid
That the gods in their anger
Will taken vengence on us, my brothers
For loving life so much but never thanking them for it
I'm afraid, I'm afraid
Of the life that awaits us
Of the lies of our parents
I'm afraid, oh so afraid, I'm afraid, I'm afraid
That the stars who guide us
One day will push us to the end
I'm afraid,
I'm afraid...

Happy Love

Romeo
She wears a light dress
A little silk for which
She is beautiful, beautiful to die for
Beautiful to chose
One day to die for her

Juliette
Those are the eyes of men
When he looks at me with them
And he burns
Like an angel of hell
Like an angel on earth
Like an angel of light
He burns

Romeo
Will you love me someday?
Until the end of the last day?

Juliette
Will you love me still
Until the end, until death?

Romeo
Will you love me someday, my love?

Juliette
Will you love me someday, my love?

Romeo and Juliette
Will you love me still?
Until the end, until death?
It's what people say who are in love
It's what we want, happy love

Romeo
Will you love me someday?
Until the end of the last day?

Juliette
Will you love me still
Until the end, until death?

Romeo
Will you love me someday, my love?

Juliette
Will you love me someday, my love?

Romeo and Juliette
Will you love me still?
Until the end, until death?
It's what people say who are in love
It's what we want, happy love

It's Not My Fault

Tybalt
The memories we invent are more beautiful
Childhood is more troubling when all is false
Mine was stolen, I was betrayed
I am the son of hatred and contempt
Blinders were put on me and they said to me
The others, they will want war you want it also
And I grew up in the shadows of sentiments
Far too dark, too many shadows, for a child

Alone, I am all alone
Alone, always too alone

It's not my fault
It's not my fault
If my parents have made me
I am what you see

It's not my fault
It's not my fault
I am the arms of their vengence
And I must obey them
It's not my fault
Don't look at me like that
It's not my fault

I have not had, no, no choice
I am the son of their violence
Proud of his birth

It's not my fault, oh
No, no, no
It's not my fault
Don't look at me like that
I have not had, no, no choice
I am the son of their violence
Proud of his birth

The memories we invent are more beautiful
Childhood is more troubling when all is false
Mine was stolen, I was betrayed
I am the son of hatred and contempt

The Poet

The Poet
Of course I am wrong said the earth
Until I no longer turn round
I believed myself so strong
Now, I touch the bottom
And I turn in the universe
Like the snow on the wind
And I wait
I wait until men break my heart
Until their madness explodes
They make a great mistake
The last overdose
But me I turn in the universe
Like the snow on the wind
While waiting...

Juliette
You who can make the earth speak
You who know so well of the words
Tell me poet what is the purpose of
One more day without Romeo
Me, I defy the universe
For tonight, I love a man
To speak of the world and her mysteries
To speak of all it is to speak too much
Tell me poet what is the purpose of
One more day without Romeo
Me, I defy evils of the world
For tonight, I love a man
For tonight, I love a man
And may God pardon me if I betray my father
And may God abandon me, I have no fear of his anger
Now you see, poet
I defy the world tonight
For tonight, I love a man

The Balcony

Juliette
To which star, to which God
Do I owe this love in his eyes?
Who wanted up there
That Juliette loves Romeo?
To which star, to which God
Do I owe this love in his eyes?
Even if I must pay the price
Of a forbidden love
Why do our fathers hate each other
And does the daughter love the son?
They must laugh well, up there
That Juliette loves Romeo

Romeo
To which star, to which God
Do I owe the love in her eyes?
That their will is made
For Romeo loves Juliette
If I must pray, I will pray
If I must fight them, I will fight
But why must we pay
For the right to love each other?

Romeo and Juliette
And that our fathers tear each other
Their children desire each other
One can not change history
Ours will begin tonight

Juliette
And who cares if this upsets

Romeo
That a virgin loves an angel

Romeo and Juliette
To which star, to which God
Do I owe the love in her/his eyes?
That their will is made
For Romeo loves Juliette
To which star, to which God
Do I owe this love in her/his eyes?
They must laugh well, up there
That Juliette loves Romeo

For Love

Frere Laurent
For love we become crazy

Romeo
But without it we are nothing at all

Frere Laurent
Me, my love is for God

Juliette
I live only in his eyes

Frere Laurent
For love we fear to suffer

Romeo
I am ready to die for it

Frere Laurent
We lose ourselves, we drown

Juliette
We hope and we believe

Romeo
For love I would make for her
Our lives a rainbow, help us

Juliette
Far from the noise of armies

Romeo and Juliette
Make us husband and wife, for love

Frere Laurent
For love, we feel too much pain

Juliette
Yes but it's the only star

Romeo
In the night who guides us

Romeo and Juliette
Without love our lives are empty

Romeo and Frere Laurent
Without love

Romeo
It's God that you love
Yes but for me it's Juliette
If eveyone must pay, tell me what is my debt?
My father, I beg you

Juliette
My father, I implore you

Romeo and Juliette
Marry us today
The injustice is wrong
You will see us forced on our knees in front of you
You will see us like the only ewes in the middle of a pack of wolves

Romeo
I want so much tonight to sleep with Juliette
To wait in the dark for the soft song of the meadowlark

Romeo and Juliette
Help us

Chorus
For love, we can gain
For always eternity, for love
And if God helps us
And that God helps us, for love

Romeo and Juliette
For love

The Beautiful, The Ugly

The Nurse
Ha,ha,ha laugh the people around
Ha,ha,ha they laugh at a love
They don't understand what they don't feel
And this is why they say ha, ha, ha
Laugh, laugh hard you, you would pour tears, they would still laugh
God it's easy for the idiots
To be blind and deaf to a grand love
To be blind and deaf

Benvolio
Ha,ha,ha, my God she is funny
With this hair here, she has the air of a willow
How Romeo the most beautiful of us
Could keep all these oaths
Like us all, he lies

Refrain
The beautiful, the ugly both have the same secrets
Life doesn't make us gifts
Whether we are ugly or we are beautiful
We all want what we don't have
We are caught for what we aren't
We laugh when love frightens us
But we pray that it will come into our hearts

The Nurse
Ha, ha, ha you are only dogs
Ha, ha, ha nothing satisfies you
And the jealousies are your only friends
Even the north wind must blow weaker
Than you silly things

Mercutio
Ha, ha, ha, no matter if these two like each other
Ha, ha, ha, we don't speak the same
Two spoiled children can't love
Love is for those who forget the gods
Who deserve it
(To refrain)

The beautiful, the ugly...
Yes, but at the bottom we know well who we are
The beautiful, the ugly...
(To refrain)

And Now She Loves

The Nurse
Me, I'm nobody, nobody is around me
They told me you give your milk and your love
And when I saw her eyes I thanked the gods
And I prayed to heaven that her life would be beautiful
And Juliette grew

And now she loves, and now she dances
She tells me, 'I love him', she leaves childhood
And me who is nothing but her nurse, her cousin
It's not me who she looks like
But I am the only one for her when she is scared
And now she loves and now she dances
And now she loves

And me who doesn't have her, I share her with another
When she says 'my daughter', me, I think it's ours
Why to please their husbands
So many women like her forget
That they made children and will be twenty years old
And Juliette grew

And now she loves, and now she dances
She tells me, 'I love him', she leaves childhood
And me who is here, who looks and who sees
I would give my life all the same
For this child who grows

And now she loves and now she dares
That her heart explodes and now she loves
And you who know that love can kill
Give me the strength, the courage
To lead her to marriage
And now she loves
And now she dances
And now she loves
And now she loves

To Love

Romeo
To love is the most beautiful thing
To love is to rise so high
And touch the wings of birds
To love is the most beautiful thing

Juliette
To love is to steal time
To love is to remain living
And to burn with the heart of a volcano
To love is the most grand thing

Romeo and Juliette
To love is stronger than all
To give the best of us
To love and to feel our heart
To love to have no fear

Romeo, Juliette and the Chorus
To love is the most beautiful thing
To love is to rise so high
And touch the wings of birds
To love is the most beautiful thing
To love is to steal time
To love is to remain living
And to burn with the heart of a volcano
To love is the most grand thing
To love is to burn in the nights
To love is to pay the price
And to give a direction to one's life
To love is to burn in the nights
To love is the most beautiful thing
To love is to rise so high
And touch the wings of birds
To love is the most beautiful thing
To love...

Act 2.

They Say in the Street

Mercutio
They say in the street, that Romeo is lost
That he deserves the blade of the people who sell their souls

Benvolio
They say in the street, that the son of Montaigu
Betrayed his parents, dishonoured his class

Mercutio & Benvolio
But you who lives like an angel, nothing disturbs you
You believe all is right, but life one day will take revenge

Mercutio & Benvolio
You had no right

Romeo
Don't talk to me of right

Mercutio & Benvolio
You had no right

Romeo
You have nothing on me

Mercutio & Benvolio
You had no right

Romeo
I believe that you will never love

Mercutio & Benvolio
You had no right

Romeo
From you, I keep no secrets

Mercutio & Benvolio
You had no right

Romeo
I look at you and I'm ashamed

Mercutio & Benvolio
You had no right

Romeo
I'm sick of what they say

Mercutio & Benvolio
You had no right

Romeo
The only thing for me that counts

Mercutio & Benvolio
You had no right

Romeo
Is that you love her too

Mercutio
They say in the street that by taking her virtue
You have lost yours and awakened the hate

Benvolio
They say in the street that for you have no way out
That to save your honour, you must leave this flower

Mercutio & Benvolio
But you who lives like an angel, nothing disturbs you
You believe all is right, but life one day will take revenge

Mercutio & Benvolio
You had no right

Romeo
What do you want me to say to you?

Mercutio & Benvolio
You had no right

Romeo
To punish me for my frankness?

Mercutio & Benvolio
You had no right

Romeo
You who know everything about me

Mercutio & Benvolio
You had no right

Romeo
You doubt so, why?

Mercutio & Benvolio
You had no right

Romeo
Why judge me so?

Mercutio & Benvolio
You had no right

Romeo
You my brothers, you my friends

Mercutio & Benvolio
You had no right

Romeo
I am free as you were

Mercutio & Benvolio
You had no right

Romeo
Before wanting to judge me

Mercutio & Benvolio
Of course it's life that chooses

Romeo
Of course it's life that chooses

Mercutio & Benvolio
But why the daughter of your ennemy?

Romeo
I can do nothing, it was written

Mercutio & Benvolio
When all the women want you in their beds

Romeo
No, no, oh no!

Mercutio & Benvolio
Why do you have to choose her?

Romeo
I live my life just as I am, I say it to you, oh yes

Mercutio & Benvolio
You had no right

Romeo
Go, look at yourselves

Mercutio & Benvolio
You had no right

Romeo
You are simply jealous

Mercutio & Benvolio
You had no right

Romeo
You forget all those nights

Mercutio & Benvolio
You had no right

Romeo
With those girls who bore us

Mercutio & Benvolio
You had no right

Romeo
You forget the confidence

Mercutio & Benvolio
You had no right

Romeo
Which bound us since childhood

Mercutio & Benvolio
You had no right

Romeo
When one prays in silence

Mercutio & Benvolio
You had no right

Romeo
For the chance to finally come

Mercutio & Benvolio
You had no right

Romeo
No, I have betrayed no one

Mercutio & Benvolio
You had no right

Romeo
I don't want anyone's pardon

Mercutio & Benvolio
You had no right

Romeo
With you I was someone

Mercutio & Benvolio
You had no right

Romeo
But without her, I am nothing

Mercutio & Benvolio
You had no right

Romeo
No, I have betrayed no one I do not want anyone's pardon Without her, without her, I am nothing

Mercutio & Benvolio
You had no right

Romeo
I am nothing

Mercutio & Benvolio
You had no right...

It's the Day

Tybalt
Women are only lessons
I took my first near my father at 15 years old
All the desires, all the pleasures, I know them so well
I am an excellent lover
The blondes, the brunettes, all except one
The only one who counts
The only one who counts

Cousin, cousin the joke is over
I saw her growing, I saw her leaving with him
How can she love the son of Montague?
It's a marriage spoiled by vice and virtue

It's the day, It's the day, It's the day, It's the day
Today I am writing a letter
Dear friend, yes, I will kill you
I will kill him, not wound
Like she wounded me
Juliette, I will make him pay for your weakness

Women are only prisons
Mine I made in the heart of Juliette at 15 years old
I never dared, I will never dare
To tell her that she is loved by Tybalt in secret but

It's the day, It's the day, It's the day, It's day
The day the men fight
The day the storm bursts
I will kill him, not wound
Like she wounded me
Romeo, I will make you pay for her weakness

{Chorus: It's the day}
My heart betrays me
{Chorus: It's the day}
Even if I fear the night
{Chorus: It's the day}
To die of jealousy
{Chorus: It's the day}
Is to die of love also

Don't talk to me of honour
It's for love that men die
I will find you Romeo, I will kill you Romeo
And you will know that all men have their hearts torn

The Duel

Mercutio
Tybalt, Tybalt, you are dead
Tybalt, Tybalt, finish laughing
You are not just conceited, no, you are worse
Your soul limps but you believe you run
All, all of you nauseates me
Tybalt, Tybalt, I will kill you

Tybalt
Mercutio, look at you
You have spirit but you have only that
You are only a buffoon, a failed poet
And when I hear your name
I hold my nose. Now it's finished
Finally my patience will be rewarded
Mercutio, I will kill you

Romeo
Stop, you are fools, you don't have the right
In your killing, you kill our ideas and our laws
Stop!

Chorus
Live, we want all to live
Without hating each other, without dying from it
To live and to talk, to respect, and even like each other
Free we are all free to follow, to refuse

Romeo
For those who you love, your mothers, your wives
Forget the hatred, put down your weapons
To live and to drink to chance
Drunk, but not on vengence

Chorus
Live, we want all to live
Without hating each other, without dying from it
To live and to talk, to respect, and even like each other

Romeo
Stop, you are fools, you don't have the right, no
Death waits its hour, await yours
Don't make the mistake, don't make the fault
To live to understand each other, to live and grow old together, oh, oh, oh...

Mercutio
He hates me so much, since so long ago, no, Romeo
His grace is too much, it's like a dog in rage
A coward who belives in his courage

Tybalt
What do you believe, you are not king, no
You are like us, even worse than us
You're now full of love and you piss kindness
You are like the vultures who await weakness
Live, Live it's to fight each other, life isn't a theater

Chorus
Live, we want all to live
Without hating each other, without dying from it
To live and to talk, to respect, and even like each other
Free we are all free to follow, to refuse
Live...

Death of Mercutio

Mercutio
Roméo

Romeo
Mercutio, you're hurt

Mercutio
No, what can still hurt Mercutio, no?
But life, Roméo, look, she escapes, she leaves us

Romeo
But you're bleeding!

Mercutio
No, I'm leaving
You were always so clumsy Roméo
Why did you come between us?
I received the blow under your arm

Romeo
Oh Mercutio, I am so-

Mercutio
Don't be sorry, it's for children to be sorry, and Juliette loves a man, no?

Romeo
Mercutio...

Mercutio
Don't cry, love Juliette, Romeo
Love her with all your soul, with all your strength
She will give you what no woman has ever given me
Love her Romeo, love her

I die, in the dust, but I die, in your arms
Romeo, oh my brother, what will you do without me?
I die for you to live, but you will not live
I pass on the other bank, I will wait for you over there
Continue your war, but continue without me
I die in the dust, but I die like a king
I curse your families, I curse your houses
Romeo, so fragile, you will lose reason
Romeo...Romeo...

Romeo
Mercutio...Mercutio!
Don't leave me!
I beg you Mercutio, don't leave me!
Mercutio, my brother

Who will know one day, how much love you had
God life on earth, is only hell
Oh, oh...Tybalt, Tybalt, Tybalt!

God, life on earth is only hell
Adieu my friend, adieu

The Vengeance

Count Capulet
What is the price?
Who will pay for his life?
What is the fate?
That one gives to those who kill?

Lady Capulet
My son was killed
But you all here you know
That Tybalt before
Has already made blood run

The Prince
The affair is done
But now for it all to stop
I must believe you
I must know

Romeo
I didn't, I swear it to you
Want what happened
Vengence is not my nature
Nevertheless, I avenged him
It's therefore neccessary, to do something
When one sees dying, a brother

You, who you hate so much
How can you judge us
We are all three, your children
It's you alone, who have killed them
We are only mimes
We imitate, your crimes
Oh!

Chorus
What is the price?
Who will pay for his life?
What is the fate?
That one gives to those who kill?

The Prince
The affair is done
But now for it all to stop
I must believe you
I must know

Oh, what is the price

Power

The Prince
To be prince, to be king
To have all powers but no rights
To be prince here
To live under the laws

They envy me but for what?
They say 'him' while speaking of me
They fear me, They believe me
For they are hot, I'm cold
And yet I acknowledge it
I sacrifice all
For to keep on you

The power, the power, the power
Some are rich, some are beautiful
The mind never rests
They accept everything from gods
Some are certain to be happy
Some are evil in hell
The wind who blew on the seas
I don't know on earth

The lightest pain
What a big pleasure to have
Between their hands the power
It's better than gold, than ivory
When the world is his mirror
The power, the power

The power, one savours it
It's even stronger than love
Even softer than the velvet
Of the women who court me
The power, it's joy
And I enjoy their confidence
And when I give my seed
It's to history that I think
The power, it's fantastic
I am a man but public
In this world where all is bought
I am the only who can lend
In this world where all is sold
They give to me, or else I take
Among dwarves, I am the giant
And I lie, I lie, I lie

The power, ah! my friends
If you only knew the price
It's death who smiles at you
Eternity in one life
Virtue versus vice
It's the father who speaks to the son
I command, they obey
The power, that merits
One takes it, or one inherits it
And the day where one leaves it
Then one contructs their legend
The power that burns in you
The power that makes you crazy
The power, one is nailed there
And when it abandons you

One dies,
The power, the power, the power...
The power

Duet of Despair

The Nurse
The things are never, how one would like them to be
Juliette now you know, what I already knew
And you cry, you cry, my daughter, my sister
I feel your pain

God, men, are cruel
Men, are sure of themselves
Oh! God, men, are cruel
What do we have to do
To win your grace?
God, you who put us on earth
Why force us to conceal ourselves?
And watch the death of men

Frere Laurent
The prince, by chasing you out
Saved you, you know
They claimed your blood
The blood of Montague
And you poor, little, lost thing
You, you don't understand anymore

God, men, are cruel
Men, are sure of themselves
Oh! God, men, are cruel
What do we have to do
To win your grace?

Together
God, you who put us on earth
Why force us to conceal ourselves?
And watch the death of men

Chorus
God, men, are cruel
Men, are sure of themselves
Oh! God, men, are cruel
What do we have to do
To win your grace?
God, you who put us on earth
Why force us to conceal ourselves?
And watch the death of men

The Lark's Song

Romeo
Juliette, Juliette
I hear the lark's song
I will be strong but be ready
Juliette, I must go

Juliette
Romeo, Romeo
No, it's that of the nightingale
I feel that I will go mad
Romeo, if you leave

I don't want to
I can't
Live without you

Romeo
To love you, To love you
All of life to love you
May human justice not be so certain
They've never loved to be able to judge us

Juliette
To love you, tomorrow, you will be so far

Romeo and Juliette
To love you, To love you until the end of the night
To sleep in your arms, to die with you
To sleep in your arms, to die with you
To love you

Tomorrow

Count Capulet
Paris, It's decided you will have my daughter
Paris, I give to you my rose, my daffodil
I do it, for her well-being, so she forgets, her sorrow
And her heart, of satin, now belongs to you
Tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow, I will give you her hand

Lady Capulet
Juliette, you know the love your father has for you
Juliette, but tomorrow your childhood will be dead
He gives your hand to Paris, you will give the world a son
And may God, bless you, he gives you to Paris
Tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow, he will have, your hand

Count Capulet
Women have no choice

Lady Capulet
Men have all the rights

Count and Lady Capulet
But why do you cry, at least you know
That your hour of bliss is coming

Count Capulet
Tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow, he will have your hand

Juliette
Nurse, my father wants me to marry Paris

Chorus
Tomorrow...he will have your hand

Juliette
Nurse, why must I obey?

Chorus
Tomorrow...you can do nothing

Juliette
I prefer to kill myself

Chorus
How can you dare?

Juliette
To be obligated to love, this Paris so well born

Chorus
Tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow

Juliette
I am already married

Chorus
He will have your hand

The Nurse
Juliette how can you still
Love when your cousin is dead
I beg of you, you must say yes
To this husband, you've been promised

The Nurse & Count Capulet
Tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow, he will have your hand

Chorus
Tomorrow, he will have your hand, he will have your hand

Juliette
I don't want, let me

Chorus
It's your father you must do as he tells you

Juliette
Call if off, out of pity, no!

Chorus
Tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow, he will have your hand

To Have a Girl

Count Capulet
To have a girl
A little opal
Eyes that shine
Skin so pale

To have a girl
It's to make a woman
A little virtuoso
Before her scale

To have a girl
A heart of sand
Gift of God
Gift of the devil

To have a girl
It's to commit a crime
Where the guilty is the victim
To have a girl

She is my life, she is my blood
She is the fruit of my 20 years
And I curse all her lovers
She is my life, she is my blood
To have a girl, it's to tremble with fear
That she wears make-up for a liar
To have a girl, it's to never anymore
To treat the women like I did her
To have a girl

I hate the men and their looks
I know their ruses and their victories
And when comes the day when one of them
Will take my girl while calling me 'Sir'
Then that day and for ever
I will close with double locks
My heart and I will become deaf
To have a girl it's to continue to hope
And believe still that when comes the day of my death
She will bear all at the bottom of her heart
This spark of this or that which in it's turn
And for love comes to cry the heart so heavy

To have a girl
A little opal
Of eyes shining
Skin so pale

To have a girl
It's to make a crime
Where the guilty is the victim
To have a girl
To have a girl

Why

Juliette
I remember his kisses
His looks when he watched me playing
Ah, the eyes of my father
Mine sought my mother
I remember it all
I remember it all

I remember those black nights
His fresh hand on my face after a nightmare
If you had, like me
A father like this one
One remembers it all
One remembers it all

Why? Why?
Life gives then she takes
Why? Why?
Why my father doesn't understand, why

I remember his poems
No man in the world could write me the same
Do I love my father less
By seeking to love another man?
I remember it all
I remember it all

Why, why
Life gives than she takes
Why, why
Why doesn't my father understand
Why, why in giving us life
The best of parents forget
Some day, we will move far from them
What once was three will be two

Why, why
Life gives then she takes
Why, why
Why doesn't my father understand, why
Why...

Without Her

Romeo
Of shade, she, has no need
Near her, all is a garden
The blue of her sky
It's not make up
The glow of her neck
Doesn't need jewels
When with her
It's like in church
When anyone calls
I will not answer
When I am in her arms
I forget that you are here

For her, I have left all
For her, oh, I have even killed
I am in a cage
As a bird too wise
Now, I'm angry
One has banished me, damaged me
And tonight I cry
Love is not a crime
It's you the cruel
Who believe us victims
Open your eyes, open your heart
To love them it's to steal misfortune

And I trail in the streets of Mantua
And I feel that I am becoming, crazy, without her

Of shade, she, has no need
Near her, all is a garden
The blue of her sky
It's not make up
The glow of her neck
Nothing must with jewels
When I am with her
It's like in church
When anyone calls
I will not answer
When I am in her arms
I forget that you are here
Oh...

The Poison

Juliette
Where do the
Where do the dreams of lovers go?
Their words, their fever
I return, I await you

May God guide us
I kill myself

Romeo why must it be
That they make
Our story
A comedy, a farce

May God guide us
I kill myself

Romeo it is neccessary for us to play this game
So we don't die
I must die a little
This poison here saves us
I will return at dawn

Chorus
Where do the
Where do the dreams of lovers go
Their words, their fever
I return, I await you
May God guide them

How Do I Tell Him?

Benvolio
Me, who isn't important
Who is only his childhood friend
Who only loves women and dancing
It's over...

We were yesterday still
So far, so far from death
She is fallen on the village
Like a spider weaving its thread

We were the kings of the world
Yes but our wounds are too deep
And even if tomorrow time stops
That will not revive Juliette
And it's me...
Who has to tell him that

How do I tell him? How do I tell him?
That the worst has happened
How do I tell him?
That the women he loves has killed herself
That the bliss is passed
That his childhood is over
That he only has one friend remaining
How do I tell him, that he'll suffer?
How do I tell him?

Me who has always lived
Without my parents on the street
When one loses a friend
One becomes, orphaned

When Mercutio sang to us that life is beautiful
Me I believed it
Mercutio will sing no more
And me now all alone, lost

We were the kings of the world
Yes but our wounds are too deep
And even if tomorrow some regret
That will not revive Juliette
And it's me...
Who has to tell him

How do I tell him? How do I tell him?
That the worst has happened, how do I tell him?
That the women he loves is dead
And in leaving she carries
Half of his love
She takes all of always

How do I tell him that he'll suffer, how do I tell him?
That the bliss is passed
That his childhood is over
That only one friend remains

Romeo's Death

Romeo
What have you done to her, to make her go away?
What have you done to her, which battle
Did you win, by separating us?
What have you done to her, that she chooses
To die far from me
Without me being able to hold her in my arms?
What have you done to make her leave me
The weight of your regrets, my sadness?

It's over, I leave
I wanted to know life, now I know
I am so tired
I don't want any more than to
Simply lie myself down and to take her hand
To hold her in my heart, to forget my pain

It's over, I leave
I wanted to know life, now I know
The honey of her kisses
The pain in her eyes
I will carry them
And give them to God
Adieu my Juliette
It's eternity which awaits us

It's over, I leave
Finally to lapse my memory to find peace
I am so tired
I don't want to know any more
Simply to lie myself down
To cross the mirror
To find my Juliette for eternity
She awaits us...

Juliette's Death

Juliette
Why should I stay and grow old
In this world where you are not
Is there a right to choose?
When the one who you love killed himself for you
I do not seek to understand us
I do not seek anymore of us
Burning of love leaves you in ashes
But remain hiddin with the cold of you
Me, I die of love
Me, I die of love

Romeo, Romeo
Life without you is only a word
Romeo, I love you too much
So that tonight the day will lie down
Without the taste of you on my mouth
Romeo, Romeo
I arrive await me on high
Romeo I love you too much
So that tomorrow the day will awake
Without the taste of you on my lips

Perhaps you have pain
Me, I have had so much for you
I leave you with your hate
But leave me to go far from you
Me, I die of love
Me, I die of love

I Don't Know

Frere Laurent

I don't know anymore, I don't know anymore
If I believe in man or if I don't
If God is still in my life
Oh, I don't know anymore, I am lost

For you I have left all
I gave you my soul
For you I renounced
The tender carresses of women
I believed in your kindness
But I have lost mine
I cannot love anymore
All these men filled with hate
And I envy the apostles, I envy all those who believe
I am a man like any other
Who softly drowns
And loses faith

I don't know anymore, I don't know anymore
What it is that you wanted
That men love each other and then kill each other?
Oh, I don't know anymore, I am lost

For you I have pardonned
For you I have done good
For you I have heard their secrets but mine
A little more each day
Becoming more and more heavy
I cry but you are deaf
I have lost my love
Oh, God it's my prayer
It's worth that of my brothers
I am a man like them
On my knees infront of God
And I am unhappy

However I remember
Before I blaspheme
I could say I love you to who I met
Life was easy
It was enough to love
But the ink of the gospels
In my heart has dried
You who know all on everything
Hear the voice of a man
Who tells you on his knees
That he is becoming mad

....I don't know anymore, I am lost
I don't know anymore, no, I don't know anymore
What it is that you wanted
That men love each other and then kill each other?
Oh, I don't know anymore, I am lost

I believe in man or if I don't
If God is still in my life
Oh, I don't know anymore, I am lost
I don't know anymore, no!....

Guilty

Lady Montaigu
Our lives are nothing more
Than lost boats
Why live still
When our children are dead?
And may God and men
See what we are

Lady Capulet
Their souls of crystal
Pardon us for the bad
That our gods in anger
Have let us make them
And may they rest in peace
And may they love forever

Lady Montaigu
One judges us, one blames us
Them in paradise, us in flames
It's here that 'Romeo and Juliette' is finished

Lady Capulet, Lady Montaigu and the Nurse
One judges us, one blames us
Them in paradise, us in flames
It's here that 'Romeo and Juliette' ends

The Company
Guilty, Guilty
The entire world will judges us
Guilty

The Nurse
To love

The Company
Guilty

The Nurse
It's the most beautiful thing

The Company
The entire world

Benvolio
It's to remain living

The Company
Will judge us

Count Capulet
It's to rise so high

The Company
The entire world
