from Roméo et Juliette, de la Haine à l'Amour (Hungarian-Rómeó és Júlia)
Gérard Presgurvic/me
Romeo gives his final ode to his departed love, Juliette.
Romeo
No pain, no fear
All I want is near with her
All of life is here with her
The stars I thought were friends
They've led me to the end
Our end
No pain, no fear, no more, this fear,
Far from love and far from hate
I'll be once more where you are
To the ice world that awaits
Where just wind strums our guitar
My love, my wife, my friend, my own
You took your life, now mine is stone
What did they do, that you would dare
To leave me here in dark despair?
What have they done, to make you leave
With their regrets, to suffer, grieve?
As I am yours, my life is tied
Where I belong, here by your side
No pain, no fear
My time here is done
I'll be near you, my sun
I'll have nothing to regret
And with my Juliet
I'll end!
I end...
He cannot continue, and lies with Juliet. The music of J'ai Peur continues. At the climax Death kisses him. He dies.
