Duet uit De parelvissers van Bizet

  • none

    BRYN

    It was in the evening!

    In the air cooled by a breeze,

    The brahmanes with faces flooded with light,

    Slowly called the crowd to prayer!

    ANDREA

    At the back of the holy temple,

    decorated with flowers and gold,

    A woman appears!

    BRYN

    A woman appears!

    ANDREA

    I can still see her!

    BRYN

    I can still see her!

    ANDREA

    The prostrate crowd

    looks at her amazed

    and murmurs under its breath:

    look, this is the goddess

    looming up in the shadow

    and holding out her arms to us.

    BRYN

    Her veil parts slightly.

    What a vision! What a dream!

    The crowd is kneeling.

    BRYN & ANDREA

    Yes, it is she!

    It is the goddess,

    more charming and more beautiful.

    Yes, it is she!

    It is the goddess

    who has come down among us.

    Her veil has parted and the crowd is kneeling.

    ANDREA

    But through the crowd

    she makes her way.

    BRYN

    Already her long veil

    hides her face from us.

    ANDREA

    My eyes, alas!

    Seek her in vain!

    BRYN

    She flees!

    ANDREA

    She flees!

    But what is this strange flame

    which is suddenly kindled in my soul!

    BRYN

    What unknown fire is destroying me?

    ANDREA

    Your hand pushes mine away!

    BRYN

    Your hand pushes mine away!

    ANDREA

    Love takes our hearts by storm

    and turns us into enemies!

    BRYN

    No, let nothing part us!

    ANDREA

    No, nothing!

    BRYN

    Let nothing part us!

    ANDREA

    No, nothing!

    BRYN

    Let us swear to remain friends!

    ANDREA

    Let us swear to remain friends!

    BRYN

    Let us swear to remain friends!

    BRYN & ANDREA

    Oh yes, let us swear to remain friends!

    Yes, it is her, the goddess,

    who comes to unite us this day.

    And, faithful to my promise,

    I wish to cherish you like a brother!

    It is her, the goddess,

    who comes to unite us this day!

    Yes, let us share the same fate,

    let us be united until death!

    Ik ben mijn Italiaans aan het ophalen,en ik vind dit zo,n schitterend lied

  • Enneke

    Welke versie bedoel jij dan?

    Want ik ken dit alleen in het Frans. Waarin Bizet het schreef

  • Remco

    In welke taal het ook is, het blijft prachtig. Schitterend om te laten spelen nadat je elkaar het ja-woord hebt gegeven.
