Olim
Olim deus accelere
Hoc sæculum splendidum
Accelere fiat venire olim
Morning in Paris, the city awakes
To the bells of Notre Dame
The fisherman fishes, the bakerman bakes
To the bells of Notre Dame
To the big bells as loud as the thunder
To the little bells soft as a psalm
And some say the soul of the city's, the toll of the bells
The bells of Notre Dame
Listen, they're beautiful, no?
So many colors of sound, so many changing moods
Because you know, they don't ring all by themselves
They don't?
No, you silly boy.
Up there, high, high in the dark bell tower
Lives the mysterious bell ringer.
Who is this creature
Who?
What is he?
What?
How did he come to be there
How?
Hush, Clopin will tell you
It is a tale, a tale of a man and a monster.
Dark was the night when our tale was begun
On the docks near Notre Dame
Shut it up, will you!
We'll be spotted!
Hush, little one.
Four frightened gypsies slid silently under the docks near Notre Dame
Four guilders for safe passage into Paris
But a trap had been laid for the gypsies
And they gazed up in fear and alarm
At a figure whose clutches were iron as much as the bells
Judge Claude Frollo
The bells of Notre Dame
Kyrie Eleison
Judge Claude Frollo longed to purge the world of vice and sin
Kyrie Eleison
And he saw corruption everywhere, except within
Bring these gypsy vermin to the palace of justice
You there, what are you hiding?
Stolen goods, no doubt. Take them from her
She ran
Dies iræ, dies illa
Dies iræ, dies illa
Solvet sæclum in favilla
Teste David cum sibylla
Quantus tremor est futurus
Quando Judex est venturus
(Sanctuary, please give us sanctuary!)
Quantus tremor est futurus
Quando Judex est venturus
Dies iræ
A baby? A monster!
Solvet sæclum in favilla
Dies iræ, dies illa
Stop!
Cried the Archdeacon
This is an unholy demon.
I'm sending it back to hell, where it belongs.
See there, the innocent blood you have spilt on the steps of Notre Dame
I am guiltless. She ran, I pursued.
Now you would add this child's blood to your guilt on the steps of Notre Dame
My conscience is clear
You can lie to yourself and your minions
You can claim that you haven't a qualm
But you never can run from nor hide what you've done from the eyes
The very eyes of Notre Dame
Kyrie Eleison
And for one time in his life of power and control
Kyrie Eleison
Frollo felt a twinge of fear for his immortal soul
What must I do?
Care for the child, and raise it as your own
What? I'm to be saddled with this misshapen...?
Very well. Let him live with you, in your church.
Live here? Where?
Anywhere.
Just so he's kept locked away where no one else can see
The bell tower, perhaps
And who knows, our Lord works in mysterious ways
Even this foul creature may yet prove one day to be of use to me
And Frollo gave the child a cruel name
A name that means half-formed, Quasimodo
Now here is a riddle to guess if you can sing the bells of Notre Dame
Who is the monster and who is the man?
Sing the bells, bells, bells, bells bells, bells, bells, bells, bells
Bells of Notre Dame
