It is pure cinema.

He uses all the instruments that rattle your bones and shake your fat.

0:00:300:00:36

You resonate when you hear Berlioz! That's what you do. You... Brrrrr!

0:00:360:00:40

It just drags you in, and it works on your nerves,

0:00:430:00:47

it gets deep down inside.

0:00:470:00:48

All I want to is be able to react to what he has written.

0:00:520:00:56

HE LAUGHS

0:00:560:00:57

What am I? Am I the tuning fork that smashes against the rock that's Berlioz? Boom!

0:00:590:01:05

What defines an opera? What determines it?

0:01:060:01:10

Berlioz certainly didn't play by the rules!

0:01:100:01:12

HE LAUGHS

0:01:120:01:15

I still, in a sense, come from this, I'm a cartoonist

0:01:150:01:19

who then moved into animation. So suddenly my cartoons started moving.

0:01:190:01:25

And because I had to work quickly, I had to use collage. So I would pick famous paintings,

0:01:250:01:30

and then I moved into films, which was doing the same thing,

0:01:300:01:34

but now we're in three-dimensional things - people.

0:01:340:01:38

I suppose opera is about a sweep, an arc of character and ideas,

0:01:410:01:48

and in that case, half my films would be an opera.

0:01:480:01:51

So, I don't know, from cartoons to animation to film,

0:01:510:01:56

to opera - that's a good journey.

0:01:560:01:58

You could take a romantic piece, I suppose you could call it,

0:02:020:02:07

that has a certain determinism in it, then you force it into a period of history -

0:02:070:02:13

that's concrete, that doesn't go away, that happened.

0:02:130:02:17

And see what happens. That's what we have done.

0:02:170:02:20

I've always been a huge fan of German culture.

0:02:200:02:25

And I thought, why not tell that story, from German Romanticism, through expressionism to fascism?

0:02:250:02:32

Just on an artistic design level.

0:02:320:02:34

You go from something that's organic, natural, beautiful, open,

0:02:340:02:39

to something that's twisted and jagged and fractured,

0:02:390:02:43

to something that's right angles, and nice, simple shapes, like a swastika.

0:02:430:02:48

Artistically, visually, that's a nice idea.

0:02:480:02:52

I don't like Faust, I don't like the character.

0:02:530:02:56

I didn't like him, so I started creating what I thought was a Faust that I could deal with.

0:02:560:03:02

And it's a guy I don't like at the beginning. Not a wonderful man with his eyes to the heavens.

0:03:020:03:07

He's a selfish bastard, frankly.

0:03:070:03:10

He's uncomfortable with humanity. Humanity is messy.

0:03:110:03:16

So there must be things you can get,

0:03:160:03:19

and if you can work out enough algorithms and equations,

0:03:190:03:22

maybe you can put order to this thing.

0:03:220:03:24

Ego is very important in Faust. He's got a huge one.

0:03:240:03:27

And it's his arrogance - he will pay the price for his arrogance.

0:03:290:03:33

The image of our Mephistopheles is really from Beckmann,

0:03:360:03:40

looking at German expressionist painters.

0:03:400:03:43

He's basically fun.

0:03:430:03:45

That's what I want to call the thing, not just The Damnation Of Faust,

0:03:450:03:49

but The Mischief Of Mephistopheles. You're just sucked into it.

0:03:490:03:53

That's what Mephistopheles does, he's a great seducer.

0:03:530:03:56

And I would like to be that character as well!

0:03:560:04:00

How can we play with the audience, how can we manipulate them?

0:04:000:04:04

So, one thing we're doing things with humour, you get people laughing,

0:04:040:04:08

then you pull the rug out from under them.

0:04:080:04:10

I have a Mephistopheles who behaves like a thug half the time.

0:04:100:04:13

If you need a cosh to take care of the guy rather than seducing him, use the cosh!

0:04:130:04:17

I've given him, we call them imps,

0:04:190:04:22

they are more like damned souls he's got as henchmen,

0:04:220:04:25

that are obviously delighted to be let out of hell for a brief period,

0:04:250:04:29

and what fun they can have with humanity!

0:04:290:04:31

And I hope people will go to hell with me!

0:04:310:04:34

It's great in hell, believe me!

0:04:340:04:37

HE LAUGHS

0:04:370:04:38

MAN COUGHS

0:04:480:04:52

Ah.

0:04:580:04:59

My goodness, I AM late.

0:04:590:05:01

Too much devil's work, too little time.

0:05:010:05:05

It's a cross I must bear.

0:05:050:05:07

Originally, I was planning to have an in-depth discussion

0:05:090:05:12

of tonight's main themes, but as I see Maestro is waiting, I'll be brief.

0:05:120:05:18

Can the secrets of science unlock the soul?

0:05:190:05:22

Do the mysteries of the universe enlighten

0:05:220:05:25

or merely distract a man from that which is truly important?

0:05:250:05:30

Behold. Leonardo's Vitruvian Man.

0:05:300:05:34

Idealised, perfect.

0:05:340:05:37

But can that ideal be truly attainable?

0:05:370:05:40

Luckily for me, there will always be a Faust who will try.

0:05:420:05:46

HE LAUGHS

0:05:460:05:49

My team will be assisting me tonight.

0:05:490:05:52

Please pay them no attention, as they're souls of the dammed,

0:05:520:05:56

they simply don't exist.

0:05:560:05:58

So! Let's get comfortable

0:05:580:06:02

and follow our hero, as he struggles to find order in this chaotic world.

0:06:020:06:08

And remember -

0:06:080:06:10

"my struggle" translates into German as "Mein Kampf".

0:06:100:06:15

Maestro.

0:06:150:06:17

# The wind has passed

0:06:420:06:46

# And given way to spring

0:06:460:06:51

# See the fresh life in every creature

0:06:540:07:01

# The heavens

0:07:050:07:08

# Spread their warmth over Nature

0:07:100:07:16

# So shineth night

0:07:190:07:23

# Then the dawn bursts in

0:07:230:07:29

# Across the plain

0:08:020:08:05

# There blows a breeze of infinite freshness

0:08:050:08:13

# Within my breast I feel

0:08:170:08:22

# The glow of Nature's sweetness

0:08:220:08:29

# I hear all around

0:08:290:08:33

# The bright song of the birds

0:08:330:08:39

# The hushed whisper of leaves

0:08:390:08:43

# Beyond the reach of words

0:08:430:08:48

# Oh who would not be moved

0:08:480:08:54

# By the calm beauty of nature

0:08:540:09:00

# Far from the ceaseless struggle

0:09:000:09:07

# And far

0:09:070:09:10

# From the throng of people?

0:09:100:09:17

# What sounds are these?

0:13:090:13:13

# What is that distant song?

0:13:130:13:17

CHORUS SINGS

0:13:170:13:20

# As dawn heralds the day

0:13:360:13:40

# Young and old gather here

0:13:400:13:45

# In dancing and in song

0:13:450:13:49

# All can share their enjoyment

0:13:490:13:54

# Alas, their joy

0:13:550:13:58

# Only deepens my torment

0:13:580:14:03

LAUGHTER

0:15:370:15:38

# But look - a gleaming company of soldiers approaches

0:15:420:15:47

# Ah - the brave sons of Germany are girded for action

0:15:490:15:54

# What spirit and spring in their step

0:15:540:15:56

# What brilliance in their armour

0:15:560:15:59

# And what fire in their eyes

0:15:590:16:02

# No heart is unmoved at the sound of their singing

0:16:040:16:09

# Only mine feels no joy

0:16:150:16:18

# Cold and empty of feeling. #

0:16:190:16:25

FANFARE BLASTS

0:16:260:16:28

EXPLOSIONS BOOM

0:20:440:20:46

EXPLOSIONS CONTINUE IN THE DISTANCE

0:21:040:21:07

# Never once looking back

0:21:590:22:05

# I returned from the country

0:22:050:22:12

# Yet I am restless here

0:22:120:22:18

# Nothing stirs any more

0:22:310:22:39

# Only darkness surrounds me

0:22:390:22:47

# Here where I was born

0:22:470:22:52

# I am near to despair

0:22:520:22:57

# O what torment!

0:22:570:23:02

# What torment!

0:23:020:23:05

# As I gaze into the darkness

0:23:050:23:10

# Around me all is night

0:23:100:23:16

# Wrapped in silence

0:23:160:23:19

# And stillness

0:23:190:23:25

# In vain, I seek

0:23:250:23:30

# To escape my despair

0:23:300:23:37

# O, Earth, all your delights and joys are not for me

0:24:070:24:15

# Where, oh where is the key

0:24:360:24:43

# To life's mystery hidden?

0:24:430:24:48

# So must I search in vain?

0:24:480:24:52

# Is all enquiry forbidden?

0:24:520:24:56

# No more

0:24:580:25:00

# This now must end

0:25:000:25:03

# Yet, I'm fearful

0:25:100:25:15

# What makes me tremble at the edge of this bottomless abyss?

0:25:170:25:22

# O, death, too long have you languished out of reach, unbidden

0:25:220:25:29

# At last, this is your hour

0:25:290:25:32

# Cast me into the void

0:25:320:25:35

# With one fateful stroke

0:25:350:25:40

# I'll be freed or destroyed

0:25:400:25:43

# But listen!

0:26:080:26:11

# O Lord almighty

0:28:120:28:19

# We await thee

0:28:190:28:24

# Rent by grief

0:28:240:28:28

# Tormented by pain

0:28:280:28:35

# Oh, I remember

0:28:360:28:42

# Christ is risen

0:28:420:28:49

# O sweet memories of childhood

0:28:510:28:56

# The sound of that hymn is music to my soul

0:28:560:29:00

# Within me, the surging of faith

0:29:050:29:08

# Recalls the blessed peace of long lost belief

0:29:080:29:14

# My happy childhood

0:29:180:29:21

# The comfort of prayer

0:29:210:29:22

# Long distant, happy springtimes

0:29:450:29:50

# When I would wander free

0:29:500:29:54

# Past the stream gently flowing with the breeze softly blowing

0:29:540:30:01

# All alone with my dreams

0:30:010:30:04

# O the sweetness of heaven's blessing

0:30:120:30:20

# Which drove away

0:30:200:30:23

# All evil thoughts from my soul

0:30:230:30:28

# And filled my heart

0:30:280:30:32

# With love beyond expressing

0:30:320:30:43

# Alas, sweet Easter hymn

0:31:250:31:29

# Why do you rouse the sinner

0:31:290:31:33

# Lying here in the dust?

0:31:330:31:38

# Why do you raise my spirit?

0:31:380:31:43

# And why must I abandon my fatal design?

0:31:430:31:50

# Your angelic refrain

0:31:500:31:56

# Hymn more sweet than the morning

0:32:000:32:08

# May your refrain re-echo

0:32:080:32:15

# My bitter tears are shed

0:32:150:32:19

# I've found my faith again.

0:32:190:32:25

# What fine feelings are these?

0:32:290:32:34

# What piety have we here?

0:32:360:32:39

# May I pay my respects?

0:32:420:32:46

# I can see that those pretty silver bells have beguiled you

0:32:480:32:54

# That hymn's pious charms have enlivened your senses.

0:32:540:33:00

# But who are you and how did you get in?

0:33:000:33:04

# And what's that strange look in your eye?

0:33:040:33:07

# Your glance so bright and all-seeing

0:33:070:33:10

# Seems to consume my very being.

0:33:100:33:13

# In truth, for a learned doctor you ask some stupid questions

0:33:130:33:21

# I am the spirit of life

0:33:240:33:27

# It is I who can free you

0:33:270:33:31

# Whatever you desire

0:33:310:33:33

# I can give, I can do

0:33:330:33:36

# If you've a secret dream

0:33:360:33:41

# Then I can make it true.

0:33:410:33:45

# All right, whoever you are

0:33:470:33:50

# Go on then, surprise me.

0:33:500:33:53

# Certainly!

0:33:530:33:55

# What I have to offer will astound you

0:33:550:34:00

# Leave this drab cell behind

0:34:020:34:05

# Airless and dank With all these musty books

0:34:050:34:09

# Come, away! Follow me.

0:34:090:34:13

# Very well

0:34:130:34:15

# On our way

0:34:150:34:16

# On to fun and amusement

0:34:160:34:18

# No more philosophy

0:34:180:34:21

# Life was made for enjoyment.

0:34:210:34:23

# Here you see, my dear Faust

0:34:500:34:53

# A crowd of merry revellers

0:34:530:34:56

# Here singing is the thing

0:35:010:35:04

# And there's never a dry glass.

0:35:040:35:07

# Oh, what a joy

0:35:590:36:01

# To sit around and do some drinking

0:36:010:36:03

# Some serious drinking

0:36:030:36:06

# You'll soon get the knack,

0:36:060:36:07

# Soon get the knack

0:36:070:36:08

# Soon get the knack and knock it back

0:36:080:36:10

# Here's a good one

0:36:560:36:58

# I wrote it myself.

0:36:580:37:02

# Have a go, tell it!

0:37:020:37:04

# If you insist then I'll give it a try

0:37:040:37:11

# Here goes.

0:37:110:37:13

# Bravo!

0:37:130:37:16

# Once a rat made himself at home and lived beneath the kitchen floor

0:37:200:37:26

# He helped himself whenever someone failed to shut the cupboard door

0:37:260:37:31

# But one day when he wasn't looking the wretched devil came to grief

0:37:310:37:36

# He was poisoned by someone's cooking

0:37:360:37:40

# "The rat's in love" was our belief

0:37:400:37:43

# Our poor rat scampered here and there

0:37:460:37:48

# He rubbed and scratched himself like mad

0:37:480:37:51

# Then he tried hiding everywhere but there was no refuge to be had

0:37:510:37:55

# His efforts to find consolation were vain

0:37:550:37:59

# So those who stood about made a joke of his desperation

0:37:590:38:05

# "The rat's in love There is no doubt"

0:38:050:38:11

# At last he found a place to hide

0:38:110:38:13

# The oven seemed warm and snug as toast

0:38:130:38:16

# But no sooner was he inside than he became the Sunday roast

0:38:160:38:21

# When she opened the door

0:38:210:38:23

# The cook was tickled at his misfortune to expire

0:38:230:38:27

# How all the servants laughed and giggled

0:38:270:38:30

# "The rat's in love His heart's on fire!"

0:38:300:38:36

# Requiescat in pace

0:38:380:38:49

# Amen.

0:38:490:38:57

# Sing a fugue for his burial

0:38:570:39:00

# A chorale An Amen

0:39:000:39:05

# Let's improvise an immortal work of art.

0:39:070:39:12

# Take careful note of this

0:39:120:39:15

# We are about to hear a sample of the worst in tastelessness, I fear.

0:39:150:39:22

# Amen

0:39:220:39:25

# Amen

0:39:250:39:30

# Amen

0:39:300:39:37

# Amen

0:39:370:39:46

# Amen

0:39:460:39:49

# Amen

0:39:490:39:55

# Amen

0:39:550:39:57

# Amen

0:39:570:40:07

# Amen GUNFIRE

0:40:170:40:23

# Amen, Amen, Amen, Amen, Amen, Amen, Amen

0:40:230:40:28

# Amen, Amen, Amen, Amen

0:40:280:40:34

# Amen.

0:40:410:40:44

# Not bad, my friends

0:40:470:40:50

# For a fugue, that was excellent

0:40:520:40:55

# It almost made me feel we were on our knees

0:40:560:41:00

# Allow me to commend you

0:41:010:41:04

# Your piece displayed much style

0:41:040:41:07

# A style fit for the church

0:41:070:41:10

# Indeed one couldn't hope for more

0:41:100:41:13

# if one was aiming for that sense of mystical piety

0:41:130:41:19

# The word Amen has always stood for

0:41:190:41:23

# But now I think it's my turn to offer to sing

0:41:230:41:31

# I hope you'll find this little thing just as charming.

0:41:310:41:35

# What's his game?

0:41:360:41:38

# Is this some kind of joke?

0:41:380:41:40

# Who is this person?

0:41:400:41:41

# What a strange complexion

0:41:410:41:44

# And look how his hair is red

0:41:440:41:47

# Let's hear him

0:41:470:41:49

# I agree Let's have his song

0:41:490:41:51

# The floor is yours.

0:41:510:41:53

# Once in a prince's household there resided a flea

0:42:060:42:11

# This tale is many times told But it's true as can be

0:42:110:42:15

# His Highness just adored him and loved him like a son

0:42:150:42:19

# Any offer to reward him

0:42:190:42:21

# One word and it was done

0:42:210:42:24

# Our flea was just delighted to be dressed like a king

0:42:320:42:37

# He loved to be invited to attend everything

0:42:370:42:41

# He gave out invitations quite freely

0:42:410:42:45

# And he brought all his friends and relations

0:42:450:42:49

# To stay with him at court

0:42:490:42:51

# Courtiers are very charming They are nice and polite

0:42:590:43:03

# But it was most alarming when they found fleas could bite

0:43:030:43:08

# So don't get indigestion from pitying a gnat

0:43:080:43:12

# If we see one, no question, we stamp on it like that!

0:43:120:43:16

# Bravo, bravo, bravo

0:43:210:43:22

# We stamp on it, we stamp on it, yes, we stamp on it like that.

0:43:220:43:27

# Enough!

0:43:320:43:33

# I've had enough of this appalling hell-hole

0:43:330:43:36

# The jokes are coarse and the people are vile

0:43:360:43:39

# I need a change of scene

0:43:390:43:42

# Take me somewhere more refined

0:43:420:43:44

# For I need peace and quiet for a while.

0:43:440:43:48

# Ah, so this isn't it?

0:43:490:43:51

# Very well.

0:43:510:43:53

# Here in these roses

0:46:060:46:12

# Here where the night reposes

0:46:120:46:19

# On this sweet-scented bed

0:46:190:46:27

# O, my Faust

0:46:270:46:31

# Lay your head and sleep

0:46:310:46:37

# May sweetest dreams delight your rest

0:46:410:46:48

# Dreams that a thousand kisses on your lips are pressed

0:46:480:46:56

# All around there are flowers in full bloom

0:46:590:47:07

# Soft and fragrant

0:47:070:47:13

# In your ears you'll hear words of divine enchantment

0:47:130:47:25

# Listen

0:47:250:47:28

# Listen

0:47:290:47:31

# While the spirits of the earth and the sky

0:47:310:47:39

# Play music for your dreams

0:47:390:47:47

# Let the hours idle by.

0:47:470:47:55

# They are in beauty's thrall

0:50:340:50:43

# Faust, she will soon be yours.

0:50:430:50:46

# Marguerite!

0:50:460:50:49

# Marguerite!

0:51:430:51:48

# O, Marguerite!

0:51:480:51:55

# Fluttering, fluttering, fluttering

0:52:230:52:26

# Fluttering birds in the evening

0:52:260:52:30

# The charm is working Now he is ours.

0:52:370:52:46

# Marguerite!

0:52:580:53:04

# Bravo, bravo, spirits of air

0:53:510:53:55

# You've served your master well

0:53:550:54:03

# Beguile his sleep with soft music and charms

0:54:050:54:17

# Marguerite!

0:56:440:56:46

# She was there She was there

0:56:460:56:48

# I saw her heavenly image

0:56:480:56:51

# An angel brought to earth

0:56:510:56:54

# Where is she now?

0:56:540:56:56

# Where can I find her?

0:56:560:56:58

# Where can I kneel down before her?

0:56:580:57:04

# Very well Just follow me once more

0:57:040:57:08

# In that fragrant bower decked with roses

0:57:120:57:19

# Where your heart's one desire reposes

0:57:190:57:28

# You alone shall enjoy the prize! #

0:57:280:57:33

# But look, here comes a group of rowdy young students

0:57:350:57:39

# Who will be passing by her doorway

0:57:390:57:41

# If you slip in with them while they yell out their song

0:57:410:57:46

# You will soon be in her arms

0:57:460:57:49

# Don't get carried away when I take you along.

0:57:490:57:57

# Well defended cities are hard to attack

0:58:580:59:04

# And fine bosomed beauties tend to answer back

0:59:040:59:09

# Of both we'll be masters with the power of the sword

0:59:090:59:15

# Whatever it costs us we win our reward

0:59:150:59:20

# We win our reward.

0:59:200:59:23

# Nobis subridente luna

1:00:061:00:08

# Per urbem quaerentes puellas eamus

# Fortunati Caesares, dicamus

1:00:141:00:20

# Gaudeamus, gaudeamus

1:00:241:00:26

# Gaudeamus igitur!

1:00:261:00:28

BOTH CHOIRS SING TOGETHER

1:00:281:00:35

# Veni, vidi, vici! #

1:01:211:01:24

BOTH CHOIRS CONTINUE TO SING

1:01:241:01:29

MARCHING AND CHEERING

1:02:471:02:50

CHANTING: Sieg Heil! Sieg Heil!

1:02:501:02:52

Sieg Heil! Sieg Heil! Sieg Heil! Sieg Heil!

1:02:521:02:57

BRASS FANFARE

1:03:001:03:02

# To you, bountiful twilight

1:04:171:04:24

# Deep gratitude I feel

1:04:241:04:32

# Soon may your gentle light

1:04:321:04:36

# This mysterious place reveal

1:04:361:04:43

# Where my senses are charmed

1:04:431:04:48

# As if I were dreaming

1:04:481:04:55

# Dreams of the sweet caress

1:04:551:04:59

# Of the fresh scent of morning

1:04:591:05:10

# Can this be love?

1:05:111:05:15

# Can this be love?

1:05:151:05:17

# It must be

1:05:171:05:22

# Strange how completely here

1:05:231:05:29

# All my cares disappear

1:05:291:05:34

# How wondrous is the silence

1:05:341:05:41

# How pure and how serene

1:05:411:05:47

# Is the air

1:05:471:05:52

# Let me admire you

1:05:521:05:56

# Vision of beauty

1:05:561:05:59

# O ideal of all perfection

1:05:591:06:04

# Oh, what desire consumes me

1:06:041:06:08

# As I begin to explore

1:06:081:06:11

# This chamber where no man

1:06:111:06:18

# Has intruded before

1:06:181:06:25

# Through the air that now fills me

1:06:251:06:35

# O Lord! O Lord!

1:06:351:06:38

# After such bitter suffering

1:06:381:06:45

# Peace is restored

1:06:451:06:52

# O Lord! O Lord!

1:06:521:06:56

# After such bitter suffering

1:06:561:07:03

# Peace is restored

1:07:051:07:16

# Here she comes

1:08:471:08:49

# Come, hide behind this curtain over here

1:08:551:08:57

# Heavens! My heart is trembling with joy

1:08:571:09:03

# Remember, this is your life Good luck

1:09:031:09:06

# But one false move and you are lost

1:09:061:09:09

# Good

1:09:131:09:15

# With the help of my will-o'-the-wisps

1:09:151:09:18

# I will sing you a song to assist your wooing

1:09:181:09:23

# O beating heart

1:09:291:09:32

# Be silent

1:09:321:09:35

# How stifling it is

1:10:111:10:14

# I feel frightened like a child

1:10:301:10:34

# Last night I had a dream that left me deeply troubled

1:10:411:10:50

# I dreamt he was here

1:10:541:11:01

# He who will be my love

1:11:021:11:07

# He was so handsome

1:11:161:11:20

# And I knew how he loved me

1:11:251:11:33

# I knew how he loved me

1:11:341:11:39

# And how much I loved him

1:11:391:11:44

# Is there the smallest chance I could ever meet him?

1:11:501:11:57

# That's madness

1:12:021:12:05

# In distant Thule, I've been told

1:12:541:12:59

# There once lived a king who loved most truly

1:12:591:13:04

# His love, before she died so cruelly

1:13:061:13:11

# Gave the king a cup of pure gold

1:13:111:13:19

# Thereafter, at feasts in his palace

1:13:201:13:25

# He kept the golden cup close by

1:13:251:13:34

# Whenever he supped from that chalice

1:13:341:13:43

# One small tear glinted in his eye

1:13:431:13:53

# As the king's life drew to a close

1:14:121:14:18

# He did bequeath his wealth and lands

1:14:181:14:23

# All except one thing out of those

1:14:251:14:30

# He kept the golden cup in his hands

1:14:301:14:38

# Then one summer's day he invited

1:14:391:14:44

# All of the others

1:14:441:14:50

# To a feast, to celebrate

1:14:521:15:01

# In his old castle by the sea

1:15:011:15:12

# From the gold cup he drained a droplet

1:15:301:15:36

# Then stepped out on the castle wall

1:15:361:15:42

# High in the air he flung the goblet

1:15:441:15:49

# With amazement, all saw it fall

1:15:491:15:57

# Soon by the boiling waves 'twas covered

1:15:571:16:03

# Then there was calm upon the sea

1:16:031:16:12

# The old man turned pale and he shuddered

1:16:121:16:21

# Nevermore

1:16:211:16:24

# Nevermore supped he

1:16:241:16:33

# In distant Thule

1:16:401:16:45

# I've been told

1:16:461:16:50

# Once lived a king

1:16:521:16:55

# Who loved most truly

1:16:591:17:09

# Ah

1:17:091:17:16

# Come here My team of fiery spirits

1:17:381:17:44

# Gather round

1:17:491:17:53

# Time to set to work

1:17:531:17:55

# Gather round, gather round

1:18:271:18:30

# My airy will-o'-the-wisps

1:18:441:18:47

# With your magic enchantments

1:18:471:18:50

# You must ensnare a young girl

1:18:501:18:53

# And lead her to her doom

1:18:531:18:56

# The Devil says start dancing!

1:18:561:19:00

# Be warned, loyal servants of Satan

1:19:011:19:05

# If you should miss one step

1:19:051:19:08

# That is the end of you. #

1:19:081:19:09

Ah!

1:21:071:21:08

# Now at last Let's sing a morality song

1:24:111:24:17

# To entertain the lady

1:24:171:24:21

# And to damn her without a doubt

1:24:211:24:26

# Pretty little maid Let me give you this warning

1:24:301:24:34

# Let me give you a few words of warning

1:24:341:24:38

# What a price you paid waiting there since the morning

1:24:381:24:42

# Waiting there, waiting there

1:24:421:24:44

# Waiting there

1:24:441:24:46

# Let me say, you should be afraid in this house to surrender

1:24:461:24:50

# Maiden you may enter

1:24:501:24:53

# Maiden you may enter

1:24:531:24:56

# But not emerge a maid

1:24:561:24:59

# But not emerge a maid

# Pretty little maid Let me give you this warning

# Don't give in to his advances

1:25:431:25:47

# Don't give in to his advances

1:25:471:25:49

# Don't give in without a wedding ring

1:25:491:25:52

# Without a wedding ring

1:25:521:25:55

# If he takes your arm, you're polite

1:25:551:25:57

# If he takes your arm, you're polite

# Hush! Make yourselves scarce

1:26:181:26:21

# Be silent

# Let's hear the cooing of our two turtle doves. #

1:26:311:26:37

HE COOS

1:26:391:26:42

# Dear God!

1:27:141:27:16

# Can it be?

1:27:171:27:19

# At last you are revealed

1:27:491:27:54

# No cloud is there to hide you

1:27:541:27:58

# That cloud has flown away far

1:27:581:28:05

1:37:311:37:36

1:37:391:37:45

# Is gone

1:37:461:37:48

# For evermore

1:37:481:37:55

# Left alone in my grieving

1:37:571:38:03

# I fell prey to despair

1:38:031:38:09

# For the torment of his leaving

1:38:091:38:15

# Feels far too harsh to bear

1:38:151:38:23

# From weary days of waiting

1:38:231:38:28

# Reason loses its hold

1:38:281:38:31

1:38:311:38:38

# Faltering pulse

1:38:411:38:48

# Icy cold

1:38:481:38:52

# His fine elegant gestures

1:39:511:39:56

# His looks so keen and wise

1:39:561:40:03

# The beauty of his features

1:40:031:40:10

# The tenderness in his eyes

1:40:101:40:18

# His voice overwhelms me

1:40:181:40:26

# Carries me away on waves of bliss

1:40:261:40:34

# The caress of his hand so inflames me

1:40:351:40:41

# I burn

1:40:411:40:47

# Burn with his kiss

1:40:471:40:52

# Just to see my lover in the distance

1:41:481:41:54

# On his way back to me

1:41:541:41:58

# My heart, it beats with palpitation

1:41:581:42:03

# O, his burning caresses

1:42:151:42:21

# For his caress, I'll always sigh

# To die

1:42:371:42:41

# My only one desire

1:42:411:42:48

# Is in his embrace

1:42:481:42:54

# Is in his embrace

1:42:561:42:58

# To die

1:42:581:43:03

# The sound of the trumpet calls soldiers to fight

1:44:171:44:22

# Their weapons all gleaming A glorious sight

1:44:221:44:26

# Soon, night will be approaching

1:44:261:44:31

# A tune so sweet and joyful

1:44:471:44:52

# I've heard that song before

1:44:521:44:55

# On the evening that love

1:44:551:45:01

# First brought Faust to my door

1:45:011:45:05

# Jam nox stellata velamina pandit

1:45:051:45:10

# He'll not come back...

1:45:101:45:17

# He'll not come back...

1:45:171:45:23

# Alas...

1:45:371:45:44

# Alas...

1:45:541:46:02

# O, boundless

1:47:071:47:14

# Nature

1:47:141:47:19

# Unfathomable

1:47:191:47:25

# Undaunted

1:47:251:47:31

# In you alone

1:47:351:47:40

# I find comfort

1:47:401:47:45

# From this relentless pain

1:47:481:47:55

# On the warmth of your breast

1:48:001:48:08

# My despair

1:48:081:48:11

# Seems to lighten

1:48:111:48:16

# And I feel strength

1:48:161:48:22

# Returning... #

1:48:221:48:27

HE LAUGHS

1:48:271:48:30

# ..And I can live again

1:48:301:48:37

# So, let loose your storms

1:48:391:48:47

# And roar

1:48:491:48:52

# Torrential waters

1:48:521:48:57

# Crash down

1:48:571:49:01

# Crash down, mighty trees

1:49:011:49:06

# And, rocks

1:49:061:49:10

# I hear you thunder down the mountains

1:49:101:49:18

# With the clamour of nature

1:49:181:49:24

# Let my voice

1:49:241:49:31

# Join as one

1:49:311:49:37

# Cascades

1:49:441:49:48

# And woods

1:49:481:49:53

# And cliffs

1:49:531:49:56

# How I adore you

1:49:561:50:03

# Stars shining up above

1:50:031:50:11

# To you, my fervent

1:50:111:50:15

# Dreams aspire

1:50:151:50:21

# My soul is longing for repose

1:50:211:50:28

# And fulfilment

1:50:281:50:32

# Ever thwarted

1:50:321:50:37

# By fate

1:50:371:50:41

# Tell me, Faust

1:51:231:51:25

# Do you see up there

1:51:251:51:28

# High in the sky the star of faithful love?

1:51:281:51:35

# You will be needing it, my friend in the near future

1:51:351:51:41

# You keep dreaming away while that poor abandoned child, Marguerita...

1:51:421:51:47

# Enough!

1:51:471:51:49

# Ah!

1:51:491:51:50

# You no longer love her I understand

1:51:501:51:55

# And yet I must inform you She has been arrested

1:51:551:51:59

# And taken away to prison

1:51:591:52:01

# No! # HORN BLOWS

1:52:011:52:04

# But hark, I hear hunters out there in the woods!

1:52:041:52:09

# Forget them. Tell me more

1:52:091:52:12

# She's in prison, you say?

1:52:131:52:16

# She's been condemned to death because you have seduced her

1:52:161:52:22

# So now you understand

1:52:221:52:25

# This is all YOUR doing!

1:52:251:52:28

# You see then where her ill-fated passion has led?

1:52:281:52:32

# You must save her! # You must save her, you bastard!

1:52:321:52:36

# So, you think I'M to blame, then?

1:52:361:52:40

# A typical response from a mortal, don't you think?

1:52:401:52:45

# However, I am the master here

1:52:481:52:52

# And can choose whether to help you

1:52:521:52:58

# But since I've worked for you What have you done for me?

1:52:581:53:04

# What do you want?

1:53:041:53:06

# From you?

1:53:061:53:10

# I just require your signature on this old piece of paper

1:53:141:53:19

# I'll save Marguerita at once if you sign here

1:53:191:53:24

# And swear you will obey my every word in future

1:53:241:53:28

# Why should I care for the future

1:53:291:53:32

# When it's now that I'm suffering?

1:53:321:53:35

# Give it here

1:53:371:53:38

# There is my name

1:53:441:53:47

# Now let's hurry and save her We must go right away!

1:53:471:53:52

# Oh, unbearable torment! Marguerita, I come!

1:53:521:53:59

# Come here, my trusty steed!

1:54:021:54:06

# We'll ride these two black horses Up you get

1:54:121:54:16

# No time to lose!

1:54:161:54:18

# Justice must be done quickly

1:54:181:54:20

# In my mind, I can hear

1:54:261:54:29

# A cry of desperation

1:54:291:54:31

# Oh, poor Marguerita!

1:54:391:54:42

# Santa Maria...

1:54:491:54:55
