A new musical based on the Victor Hugo novel and songs from the Disney film The Hunchback of Notre Dame the Musical - Finale Lyrics
[Choir] Judex crederis Esse venturus In te domine Speravi Non confundar in Aeternum Salvum Fac populum Tuum Judex crederis
[Frollo, Spoken] The prisoner has been found guilty of entering the city of Paris illegally. Guilty of stabbing a soldier of the church, and guilty of the crime of witchcraft. The sentence is death! I will give you this opportunity to recant and save yourself.
(Aside to Esmeralda) Think of what I’ve offered. What is your answer? *Sound of Esmeralda spitting*
[Choir] Libera me domine
[Frollo, spoken] For the justice of the realm and for the salvation of pairs, it is my sacred duty to send this unholy demon back to hell!
[Quasimodo] Esmeralda!
[CHOIR] Libera me domine De morte aeterna
[CONGREGATION, spoken] And at that moment, Quasimodo decided—
[CHOIR] In die illa Tremenda Quando caeli Movendi sunt
[CONGREGATION, spoken] He could remain stone no longer—
[CHOIR] Caeli et terra Dum venere judicare Saeculum per ignem
Salutaris Salutaris hostia Quae caeli pandis ostium Bella premunto hostilia Da robur fer auxilium Sit sempiterna gloria Sit sempiterna gloria Sit sempiterna gloria Gloria, gloria Semper sanctus
[QUASIMODO, spoken] Sanctuary!
[CHOIR] Sanctus
[QUASIMODO, spoken] Sanctuary!
[CHOIR] In excelsis
[FROLLO, spoken] Captain, seize the cathedral!
[CAPTAIN, spoken] But sir, the laws of sanctuary!
[FROLLO, spoken] I am the archdeacon of this cathedral, I negate the laws of sanctuary! Open those doors! Ram them through if you must!
[CONGREGATION, spoken] As the soldiers attempted to ram open the church doors, they suddenly saw Quasimodo hurl giant stones and wooden beams
[Screams of the crowd]
[CHOIR] Dies irae Dies irae Dies irae Dies illa
[FROLLO, spoken] Use them to break down the doors!
[CHOIR] Dies irae Dies illa
[PHOEBUS] Hear me, people of Paris How much oppression will you allow
[CHOIR] Olim deus accelere Hoc saeculum splendidum
[PHOEBUS] Someday your patience will finally break Why not make someday come right now
[CHOIR] Accelere fiat venire olim
[CONGREGATION, spoken] The people fought the soldiers but could not hold them back. With one final blow, they knocked down the doors. And Quasimodo, ran back and forth trying to find a way to stop them. Until, he came upon the great vats of molten lead sitting up on the roof
[SOLDIER, spoken] My God, look! up there! He’s way up there!
[QUASIMODO] Come all you saints of stone All you guardians and gargoyles Raise the fire in the night Raise the fire now and light These vats of lead Steaming, boiling streams of lead Burning lead and let The flames grow higher Oh, saints and monster Show your power Help me to send this raging shower Raining fire on the stone below
(spoken) We’ve done it, Esmeralda! Beaten them back! Esmeralda? You are home
[ESMERALDA, spoken] Home?
(sung) Here again at the top of the world Two friends enjoying this beautiful morning In my eyes you are beautiful, too Sharing the top of the world
[QUASIMODO, spoken] Can stay inside here forever
[ESMERALDA, spoken] I don’t think…forever. You are such a good friend, Quasimodo
[QUASIMODO, spoken] Yes, your friend... Esmeralda? Esmeralda, wake up!
[FROLLO, spoken] Is she dead?
[QUASIMODO, spoken] Because of you!
[FROLLO, spoken] It was my duty
[QUASIMODO, spoken] Duty?
[FROLLO, spoken] Now we can finally go back to the way things were
[QUASIMODO, spoken] No! Never go back
[FROLLO, spoken] We will. You’ll see
(Frollo singing) At last we're free of Esmeralda Now that she's gone The poison dies with her Now that we're free of Esmeralda We can go on As close as once we were
Here in our sanctuary Sanctuary
[QUASIMODO, spoken] Sanctuary? No sanctuary without her!
[FROLLO, spoken] It was her choice, Quasimodo. I could have helped her. Even loved her
[QUASIMODO, spoken] Love? What do you know of love? Who have you ever loved?
[FROLLO, spoken] I loved..... I loved my brother. I tried to teach him
[QUASIMODO, spoken] You? Teach him?
[Frollo, spoken] Yes, as I've tried to teach you! But he was wicked, weak!
[Quasimodo, spoken] No..you are the weak one. You the wicked one! And the wicked shall not go unpunished!
[Congregation] The wicked shall not go unpunished The heart of the wicked is of little worth The wicked shall not go unpunished
[Frollo, spoken] Let go of me, Quasimodo! Quasimodo! Let go!
[Choir] Solvet saeculum in favilla Teste David cum sybilla Quantus tremor est futurus Quando judex est venturus
[Quasimodo, spoken] I told you, master. I am very strong!
[FROLLO, spoken) You don’t want to hurt me!
[Congregation, spoken] Yes, you do
Quasimodo raised his two huge hands and, with a great bellow, threw his master over the edge of the roof into the abyss below
[Frollo, spoken] Damnation!
[Congregation] The world is cruel The world is ugly But there are times And there are people When the world is not And at its cruelest It's still the only world we've got Light and dark Foul and fair
[Quasimodo] Out there
[Choir] Olim deus accelere Hoc saeculum splendidum
[Congregation/Chorus] Someday Life will be kinder Love will be blinder Some new afternoon Godspeed this bright millennium Hope lives on Wish upon the moon Let it come one day
[Choir] Olim deus accelere Hoc saeculum splendidum
[Congregation/Chorus] Someday Life will be kinder Love will be blinder Some new afternoon Godspeed this bright millennium Hope lives on Wish upon the moon Let it come one day Accelere fiat venire olim
[Quasimodo] Someday—
[Congregation/Chorus] Soon
[Clopin] Morning in Paris A new day appears Sing the bells of Notre Dame Ending the tale Of your poor balladeers Sing the bells of Notre Dame
[Congregation] And we wish we could leave you a moral Like a trinket you hold in your palm But here is a riddle to guess if you can Sing the bells of Notre Dame
What makes a monster And what makes a man
[All] Sing the bells, bells, bells, bells Bells, bells, bells, bells Bells, bells
[Clopin,Pheobus, Esmeralda, Quasimodo, Frollo] Whatever their pitch you Can feel them bewitch you The rich and the ritual knells
[All] Of the bells of Notre Dame
[Thanks to Charlie for lyrics]
