mitch leigh - barber's song/golden helmet of mambrino lyrics

Loading...

don quixote
someone approaches…!

sancho
just an ordinary traveler

don quixote
(pointing off)
but see what he wears upon his head
get thee to a place of hiding, sancho

sancho
oh, dear!

barber
(from a distance)
oh, i am a little barber
and i go my merry way
with my razor and my leeches
i can always earn my pay

though your chin be smooth as satin
you will need me soon i know
for the lord protects his barbers
and he makes the stubble grow

if i slip when i am shaving you
and cut you to the quick
you can use me as a doctor
’cause i also heal the sick

don quixote
hand over that golden helmet!

barber
but this is a shaving basin!

don quixote
shaving basin! know thou not what this really is?
the golden helmet of mambrino!
when worn by one of n-ble heart, it renders
him invulnerable to all wounds!
(to the barber whacking the barrel with his sword)
hand it over!

thou golden helmet of mambrino
with so ill-strious a past
too long hast thou been lost to glory
th’art rediscovered now at last!
golden helmet of mambrino
there can be no hat like thee!
thou and i now, ere i die now
will make golden history!

barber
(aside to sancho)
i can hear the cuckoo singing
in the cuckooberry tree…

sancho
(aside to barber)
if he says that that’s a helmet
i suggest that you agree…

barber
(aside to sancho)
but he’ll find it is not gold
and will not make him bold and brave…

sancho
(aside to barber)
well, at least he’ll find it useful
if he ever needs a shave!

don quixote
thou golden helmet of mambrino
thy deeds the world will not forget
now don quixote de la mancha
will bring thee greater glory yet!

don quixote, barber, sancho, muleteers
golden helmet of mambrino
there can be no hat like thee

don quixote
thou and i now, ere i die now
will make golden history!

barber, sancho, muleteers
golden helmet of mambrino
will make golden history!
