Paroles de Fantine's Death

FANTINE IS LYING IN A HOSPITAL BED,DELIRIOUS.FANTINECosette, it's turned so coldCosette, it's past your bed time!You've played the day awayAnd soon it will be night.Come to me, Cosette, the light is fadingDon't you see the evening star appearing?Come to me and rest against my shoulderHow fast the minutes fly away and everyminute colder.Hurry near, another dy is dyingDon't you hear the winter wind is crying?There's a darkness which comes withouta warningBut I will sing you lullabies and wake you inthe morning.VALJEAN ENTERSVALJEANOh, Fantine, our time is running outBut, Fantine, I swear this on my life.FANTINELook, M'sieur, where all the children play.VALJEANBe at peace, be at peace evermore.FANTINEMy Cosette...VALJEANShall live in my protection.FANTINETake her now.VALJEANYour child will want for nothing.FANTINEGood M'sieur, you come from God inheaven.VALJEANAnd none will ever harm CosetteAs long as I am living.FANTINETake my handThe night grows ever colder.VALJEANThen I will keep you warm.FANTINETake my childI give her to your keeping.VALJEANTake shelter form the storm.FANTINEFor God's sake, please stay till I am sleepingAnd tell Cosette I love herAnd I'll see her whe nI wake...SHE DIES WITH A SMILE.JAVERT ARRIVES.
