Paroles

Vasquez: A guard by night, a guide by day,
Upon the mountain wild,
The sacred sign protects the way,
And saints watch o’er the child.
Rita: Oh! Tell me, will he see my love?
Vasquez: Thy lover he will not see,
Place all thy trust in Heav’n above
Pray Heaven set thee free!
Rita: I’ll place my trust in Heav’n above,
Pray Heaven set me free!
I only beg one grace,
Once more to see his face;
If never more, if never more,
Why then, be death my choice!
Vasquez: Rita!
Rita: My name!
Vasquez: Dear Rita!
Rita: ’Tis his voice!
I cannot see, I hope,
I faint with fear.
Vasquez!
Vasquez: Dear Rita!
Rita: Vasquez!
Vasquez: I am here!
Both: My love, again to see thee
Dispels the falling tear,
He comes, he comes to free me!
(Yes, I am here to free thee;)
Ah, why then should I fear?
(Then banish all thy fear.)
Rita: A prison with you is no prison for me.
Vasquez: For the moments too fleet,
That are shar’d love, with thee!
Both: When the sun brightly rises o’er hill, dale, and lea,
There’s hope in the morrow, yes, then we’ll be free!
Written by: Sir Arthur Sullivan, Sir Francis Cowley Burnand
