steven byess & ohio light opera - el capitan, act ii: "i'm a victim" lyrics

Loading...

[don medigua, spoken, aside]
i am… a victim of fate!

[don cazarro, spoken]
ah, i’m glad to find you two here together. the holy father will be at the cathedral to marry you at three today.

[don medigua, spoken]
i’ve a duel at three, ha ha. make it three+thirty.

[don cazarro, spoken]
at three, capitan.

[don medigua, spoken, aside]
i am… a martyr. or a bigamist. oh, there’s no help for it. estrelda must become a member of the family circle. oh, here comes wife number one.

[princess, isabel & spanish ladies]
bowed with tribulation
torn with many a fear
hearts in desperation
bring their sorrows here

[princess]
all the joy we’d barter
that in life remains
could wе free the martyr
from his dungeon chains
[spanish ladies]
bowed with tribulation

[princess & spanish ladies, isabel]
torn with many a fеar (with fear)

[spanish ladies]
hearts in desperation

[princess & spanish ladies, isabel]
bring their sorrow here (their sorrow here)
their sorrow here (their sorrow here)

[princess & spanish ladies, isabel & princess]
their sorrow here, their sorrow here

[estrelda]
never held a heart so much of pleasure
unto me today
all the world is g+y
you are my delight, my prince, my treasure
i, your little dove
cooing only love

[don medigua]
fate has opened wide the gate of pleasure
offering a brand new honeymoon
i can be repentant at my leisure
and i need not have my leisure soon
[estrelda & peruvian ladies, isabel, princess & spanish ladies]
ha ha ha ha (boo+hoo, boo+hoo)
ha ha ha ha (boo+hoo, boo+hoo)
ha ha (boo+hoo), ha ha (boo+hoo)
ha ha (boo+hoo), ah (ah)

with a chain of roses ’round us / them both (bowed with)
we will glide, bind side by side, bridegroom and bride (tribulation)
of our hearts with pleasure beating (torn with)
i am / she is the pride, he is the idol of the day (many a fear)
ah, with a chain of roses ’round us / them both (hearts in)
we will glide, bind side by side, bridegroom and bride (desperation)
of our hearts with pleasure beating (bring their)
i am / she is the pride, he is the idol of the day (sorrow here)

[estrelda]
happy as a fairy, sweetly dreaming
in the leafy shade
of a woody glade
while the summer air with song is teeming
is a maid at dawn
of her wedding morn

[don medigua, aside]
this is just the kind of blissful dreaming
that is not enjoyed except by few
for it takes a deuced lot of scheming
when you know a nightmare’s nearly due
[estrelda & peruvian ladies, isabel, princess & spanish ladies]
ha ha ha ha (boo+hoo, boo+hoo)
ha ha ha ha (boo+hoo, boo+hoo)
ha ha (boo+hoo), ha ha (boo+hoo)
ha ha (boo+hoo), ah (ah)

with a chain of roses ’round us / them both (bowed with)
we will glide, bind side by side, bridegroom and bride (tribulation)
of our hearts with pleasure beating (torn with)
i am / she is the pride, he is the idol of the day (many a fear)
ah, with a chain of roses ’round us / them both (hearts in)
we will glide, bind side by side, bridegroom and bride (desperation)
of our hearts with pleasure beating (bring their)
i am / she is the pride, he is the idol of the day (sorrow here)

[estrelda & ladies, isabel, princess, don medigua & ladies]
so ’round them we trip with (bowed with)
joyous feet, life is fleet, wedlock sweet (tribulation)
happy the pain in (hearts in)
love replete, never may the sun of pleasure set (desperation)
ah! (ah!)
with a chain of roses ’round us / them both (all the joy)
we will glide, bind side by side, bridegroom and bride (we’d / they’d barter)
of our hearts with pleasure beating (could we / they)
i am / she is the pride, he is the idol of the day (free the martyr)
