letra de finale: sarabande - 2000 london cast of the firebrand of florence
[narrator, spoken]
now our hero stands in place
to welcome each old friendly face
they all agree to form a queue
it seems the practical thing to do
first the d-ch-ss, who still l-sts
for cellini, specialist in busts
[d-ch-ss, spoken]
you left florence without coming to decorate my fountain.
[cellini, spoken]
it is a pleasure i was saving, my lady.
[d-ch-ss, spoken]
there is such a thing, my friend, as being entirely too saving.
[narrator, spoken]
the next pair enters, look, it’s mister
duke and countess bellavista
emilia to you and me
the grand duke’s latest cup of tea
[cellini, spoken]
emilia.
[emilia, spoken]
your ladyship to you, mister.
[narrator]
then a man approaches who
we thought was banned from public view
ottaviano, free, and still
he’s trying awfully hard to k!ll
the duke. cellini tells this man
exactly where to stick his plan
[cellini, spoken]
i’ll tell you where to stick your plan.
[narrator, spoken]
now, to cellini’s great surprise
there, before his very eyes
who should step up next in line
but angela, his nymph divine
[cellini, spoken]
angela!
[angela, spoken]
i have nothing to say to you.
[cellini, spoken]
and i have everything to say to you.
[angela, spoken]
please go. i don’t want any trouble.
[cellini, spoken]
angela, i love you madly.
[angela, spoken]
thank you. now perhaps you’ll let me pass.
[cellini, spoken]
but you must believe me! i can’t work. i can’t sleep. i can’t eat. i can only think of angela, angela, angela! it goes through my head day and night like a song, a beautiful song whose tune i have lost. all i ask is one more chance.
[narrator, spoken]
she casts him one reproachful glance
and then she melts into his arms
who can resist the firebrand’s charms?
next we have a rather tender
moment on the duke’s agenda
now the time has come to show
the statue talked of long ago
in florence, in cellini’s flat
it’s now complete, a matter that
i can’t explain, but let’s not dwell
nor ponder on the tales to tell
it’s simply a fantastic gift
designed to heal that silly rift
between the duke and the king of france
so now it’s time for the final dance
everyone’s happy, life is splendid
hearts once broken now are mended
but just before we close our show
a man appears: it’s maffio!
[cellini, spoken]
maffio?
[duke, spoken]
you see, cellini, you were right: you weren’t to blame.
[cellini, spoken]
it isn’t true. i k!lled him!
[maffio, spoken]
almost, but not quite.
[cellini, spoken]
i won’t make the same mistake this time!
[narrator, spoken]
cellini, who’s been abroad
shouts:
[cellini, spoken]
en garde!
[narrator, spoken]
and draws his sword
but that’s no way to end our story
a tale should end with hope and glory
[cellini, spoken]
sorry. sorry.
[narrator, spoken]
still, a great deal’s been resolved
all of those who’ve been involved
with benvenuto, firebrand
have survived his sculpting hand
the duke has had the time to choose
emilia as his latest muse
the d-ch-ss, nymphomaniac
has plans to get cellini’s chisel back
