lirik lagu alan menken - the bells of notre dame

[congregation]
morning in paris
the city awakes
to the bells of notre dame
the fisherman fishes
the baker-man bakes
to the bells of notre dame

to the big bells as loud as the thunder
to the little bells soft as a psalm
and some say the soul of
the city’s the toll of
the bells
the bells of notre dame

long years ago did this story begin
in this place of notre dame
two orphan brothers were both taken in
by the grace of notre dame

[frollo]
claude, the older, who cared for his brother

[jehan]
young jehan, full of beauty and charm

[both]
and they lived and they grew
and awoke to the music
of bells

[congregation]
the bells of notre dame

kyrie eleison

[frollo]
oh, dear brother
‘neath these arches and this sacred dome

chorus:
kyrie eleison

[frollo]
we are blessed to find our sanctuary
and our home

[congregation]
righteous claude frollo
was ever more drawn
like a son to notre dame

[jehan]
not like his profligate brother jehan
who’d have none of notre dame

[congregation]
though as brothers they loved one another
frollo watched in despair and alarm
as jehan who grew more wild
and defied and defiled
all the laws
the laws of notre dame

chorus:
kyrie eleison

[father dupin]
you must leave, jehan
this holy refuge where you’ve dwelled

chorus:
kyrie eleison

[jehan, spoken]
leave? but, father…

[father dupin]
sorry, claude, but i’ve no choice
your brother is expelled

[frollo, spoken]
and frollo didn’t hear from his brother for several years

[congregation]
meanwhile
frollo ascended uncommonly fast
through the ranks of notre dame
till he was named the archdeacon at last
and gave thanks to notre dame
and then one doleful day got a message

[frollo]
and the name that it bore was “jehan”

[congregation]
and concealing his face
frollo stole to a place
far away
away from notre dame

[frollo, spoken]
jehan! let me take you back. i’ll bring you home

[frollo]
brother, dearest, come with me
where we will find a remedy
and notre dame once more will be
your sanctuary

healing you will be my goal
not just your body but your soul
we’ll be together in our
holy sanctuary

[jehan, spoken]
enough, claude! it’s too late for me, anyway. but if you have truly discovered charity at this late date, there is someone you can help

[frollo, spoken]
a baby? yours? oh – a monster! it’s god’s judgment on you! the wicked shall not go unpunished!

[jehan, spoken]
i should have known. i was a fool to think that you would look after him

[frollo, spoken]
look after him? me?

[jehan, spoken]
he has n0body else. take him. if you can find it in your heart

[frollo, spoken]
jehan…jehan?!

(baby cries)

chorus:
dies irae
dies illa
solvet saeclum
in favilla

kyrie eleison

[congregation]
and the saints regarded frollo
from their stone facade

chorus:
kyrie eleison

[congregation]
and he felt their gaze
as if it were the eyes of god

[frollo, spoken]
oh, lord, you’ve sent me a test. this child is my cross to bear. i may not have saved my brother, but i will save this…thing

[frollo]
see this lonesome creature
from whom lesser men would flee
i will keep and care for him
and teach him at my knee
to think like me

[congregation, spoken]
and frollo gave the child a name. a cruel name that means “half-formed…”

[frollo, spoken]
quasimodo!

[congregation]
now here is a riddle to guess if you can
sing the bells of notre dame

[quasimodo]
what makes a monster
and what makes a man

[congregation]
sing the bells, bells, bells
bells, bells, bells, bells, bells
bells of notre dame
