Les Misérables Live! (2010 London Cast Recording)

[MARIUS, spoken]
I know him
[MARIUS]
Good God! What are you doing?
'Ponine, have you no fear?
Have you seen my beloved?
Why have you come back here?
[ÉPONINE]
Took the letter like you said
I met her father at the door
He said he would give it
I don't think I can stand any more
[ÉPONINE collapses in his arms.]
[MARIUS]
Éponine, what's wrong?
There's something wet upon your hair
[There is blood on his hands.]
Éponine, you're hurt!
You need some help
Oh God, it's everywhere
[ÉPONINE]
Don't you fret, Monsieur Marius
I don't feel any pain
A little fall of rain
Can hardly hurt me now
You're herе, that's all I need to know
And you will keep me safe
And you will keep me closе
And rain will make the flowers grow
[MARIUS]
But you will live, 'Ponine—dear God above
If I could close your wounds with words of love
[ÉPONINE]
Just hold me now and let it be
Shelter me, comfort me
[MARIUS]
You would live a hundred years
If I could show you how
I won't desert you now
[ÉPONINE]
The rain can't hurt me now
This rain will wash away what's past
And you will keep me safe
And you will keep me close
I'll sleep in your embrace at last
The rain that brings you here is heaven blessed
The skies begin to clear and I'm at rest
A breath away from where you are
I've come home from so far
[ÉPONINE & MARIUS]
So don't you fret, Monsieur Marius (Hush-a-bye, dear Éponine)
I don't feel any pain (You won't feel any pain)
A little fall of rain (A little fall of rain)
Can hardly hurt me now (Can hardly hurt you now)
[MARIUS]
I'm here
[ÉPONINE]
That's all I need to know
[ÉPONINE & MARIUS]
And you will keep me safe (I'll stay with you)
And you will keep me close (Till you are sleeping)
[ÉPONINE]
And rain
[MARIUS]
And rain
[ÉPONINE]
Will make the flowers
[MARIUS]
Will make the flowers—
[ÉPONINE dies.]
[MARIUS]
—Grow
[MARIUS, spoken]
Oh God
Oh God, Éponine
No
[ENJOLRAS]
She is the first to fall
The first of us to fall upon this barricade
[MARIUS]
Her name was Éponine
Her life was cold and dark, yet she was unafraid
[COMBEFERRE]
We fight here in her name
[PROUVAIRE]
She will not die in vain
[LESGLES]
She will not be betrayed
[They carry ÉPONINE's body off.]
