2000 london cast of the firebrand of florence - act i finale كلمات الأغنية

[ensemble]
all a_tremble we assemble
shouting, “what’s the matter?”
all that yelling, so compelling
set our t__th a_chatter
all was quiet, what’s the riot?
shall we stay or scatter?

[narrator, spoken]
ottaviano’s on the scene. he
wants the duke to d_mn cellini

[ottaviano, spoken]
what frightened you, cousin?

[duke, spoken]
you are talking to alessandro, the fearless duke of flo— don’t leave me! cellini was just here.

[ottaviano, spoken]
which way did he go?

[angela, spoken]
that way!

[duke, spoken]
no, it was that way!
[ottaviano, spoken]
here’s his death warrant. sign it and we get rid of him right away.

[duke, spoken]
gеt me a quill. why aren’t therе any quills here?

[angela]
bumpy, you have promised
that this night belongs to venus
all the stars are winking
and i’m thinking
that they mean us
you’re a meanie
if you let cellini
come between us
nighttime in florence
is not for death warrants
when there is a bright moon above

[angela, emilia & models]
nighttime in florence
is not for death warrants
when fond hearts are beating with love

[duke, spoken]
but i was thinking—
[emilia, spoken]
thinking? on a night like this?
(sung)
the nighttime is no time for thinking!
the night is for loving and drinking!
so revel and frolic
and get alcoholic
and never mind if you get stinking

[ensemble]
the nighttime is no time for thinking
the night is the time to get stinking

[duke]
the nighttime is meant for caresses
you look in your book of addresses
and find a fair pigeon
who makes a religion
of giving out nothing but yesses

[ensemble]
the nighttime is meant for caresses
for giving out nothing but yesses

[angela, emilia & duke]
the nighttime is also for dancing
for rhythm exciting, entrancing
and what can excel a
good hot tarantella
for keeping an orgy advancing?
[ensemble]
the nighttime is also for dancing
for keeping an orgy advancing, oh!

dizzily, dizzily
moments go busily
heaven you quickly discover
dreamily, dreamily
peaches and creamily
lost in a rhythmical spell
l_stily, l_stily
gustily, gustily
never too far from your lover
merrily, merrily
verily, verily
dancing the g_y tarantel’!

dizzily, dizzily
busily, busily
dreamily, dreamily
peaches and creamily
l_stily, l_stily
gustily, gustily
merrily, merrily
verily, verily
dizzily, dizzily
busily, busily
dreamily, dreamily
peaches and creamily
l_stily, gustily
merrily, verily
dancing the g_y tarantel’!

dancing the g_y tarantel’!
dancing the g_y tarantel’!
dancing the g_y tarantel’!
dancing the g_y tarantel’!
dancing the g_y tarantel’!

[dance break.]

dancing the g_y tarantel’!
dancing the g_y tarantel’!
dancing the g_y tarantel’!
the g_y tarantel’!
the g_y tarantel’!

[narrator, spoken]
following that heated dance
the d_ch_ss returns, as if by chance

[blackamoor]
make way for the d_ch_ss
for her grace, the d_ch_ss!

[duke]
i will be on crutches
if the d_ch_ss
now should face us
if we’re in the clutches
of the d_ch_ss
she’ll erase us!

[angela, spoken]
i feel faint!

[guests]
this night in florence
we view with abhorrence
we all thought the d_ch_ss away!

[angela, spoken]
i feel faint!

[guests]
this night in florence
we view with abhorrence
the moon shines, but we can’t make hay!

[duke, spoken]
oh, good heavens, angela, you can’t faint here! this isn’t the sort of night i planned for us at all.

[narrator, spoken]
angela’s frightened, starts to swoon
she’s quite affected by the moon
the duke is desperate for a peck
and takes her by her pretty neck
straight to his room. meanwhile his wife
is bent on saving cellini’s life

[d_ch_ss]
romance me no romances

[cellini, spoken]
my lady! let me in!

[d_ch_ss]
treasure not my glove

[cellini, spoken]
my lady! i have been dreaming of this moment—

[d_ch_ss]
spare me your advances

[cellini, spoken]
let me in!

[d_ch_ss]
just, oh, just make love
(spoken)
you’re impatient now who were so slow before.

[cellini, spoken]
i would have k!lled an army to be with you tonight, but the duke will never forgive me for the crimes i’ve committed to reach you.

[d_ch_ss, spoken]
don’t be afraid. i will tell you a secret. you think me the d_ch_ss?

[cellini, spoken]
surely, my lady.

[d_ch_ss, spoken]
i am not. i’m the duke.

[cellini, spoken]
i ask pardon for my crimes from your lordship.

[d_ch_ss, spoken]
i will give you absolution for all your future crimes. with my lips i will pardon you.

[cellini, spoken]
my lady, you will drive me to commit more crimes.

[d_ch_ss, spoken]
you must be patient.

[cellini]
romance me no romances
curse the stars above
spare me your advances—

[narrator, spoken]
just then they have a lingering kiss
which fills cellini’s heart with bliss
she’ll let him in! she’ll save his neck!
but first she pops next door to check
her husband’s sleeping safe and sound
so still cellini hangs around
but then the other amorous pair
comes out to take the midnight air
the duke and angela open the door
cellini’s got to hide once more

[duke, spoken]
well, since taking a walk didn’t do you any good, how’d you feel about lying down? why, there’s my room!

[angela, spoken]
but i’m really better, my lord!

[duke, spoken]
no, no, no, you’re not. you really should lie down, you know. everyone should be lying down.

[angela, spoken]
i, i’m really quite strong now.

[duke, spoken]
no, nonsense! no muscles at all. we’ll lie down… i mean, you’ll lie, you’ll lie down!

[angela, spoken]
but my lord, the d_ch_ss!

[duke, spoken]
oh, she’s gone to sleep long ago. but still, it wouldn’t hurt to check, would it? smart girl! you’ve been around before… i mean… i’ll just slide around the back and, uh, make sure—smart girl! wait right here!

[cellini, spoken]
angela!

[angela, spoken]
oh, benvenuto! it’s been terrible! take me away from here, take me away!

[cellini, spoken]
yes, yes, away.

[narrator, spoken]
they’ll soon be off. before they fly
they’ll sing a sort of lullaby

[angela & cellini]
we’ll face the future alone, together
away from all the world and its alarms
there’ll be life, there’ll be love, there’ll be laughter
together in each other’s arms!

[narrator, spoken]
all that now remains to say
before we pause our happy play
is that the duke is quite aghast
when he meets his wife at last

[d_ch_ss, spoken]
oh!

[duke, spoken]
oh, oh, there you are. are you looking for me?

[d_ch_ss, spoken]
what? oh, oh yes. and you were looking for me?

[duke, spoken]
yes, my lady.

[d_ch_ss, spoken]
then, shall we retire?

[duke, spoken]
it shouldn’t happen to a dog!
