Lyrics Les Miserables Cast – Night Of Anguish
Text:
Enjolras:
She is the first to fall
The first of us to fall upon this barricade
Marius:
Her name was Éponine
Her life was cold and dark, yet she was unafraid
Her life was cold and dark, yet she was unafraid
Combeferre:
We fight here in her name
Prouvaire:
She will not die in vain
Bossuet:
She will not be betrayed
Joly:
Here comes a man in uniform
What brings you to this place?
Valjean:
I come here as a volunteer
Joly:
Approach and show your face
Sentry:
You wear an army uniform
Valjean:
That’s why they let me through
Joly:
You’ve got some years behind you, sir
Valjean:
There’s much that I can do
Joly:
You see that prisoner over there?
Grantaire:
A volunteer like you!
Combeferre:
A spy who calls himself Javert!
Grantaire:
He’s going to get it, too
Sentry:
They’re getting ready to attack!
Enjolras:
Take this and use it well!
But if you shoot us in the back
You’ll never live to tell!
