The Bells Of Notre-dame Lyrics - Disney

Clopin 

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, 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, and 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 

Man #1 

Shup it up, will you!

Man #2 

We'll be spotted! 

Gypsy 

Hush, little one. 

Clopin 

Four frightened gypsies slid silently under 

The docks near Notre Dame 

Man #3 

Four guilders for safe passage into Paris 

Clopin 

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 

Man #4 

Judge Claude Frollo 

Clopin 

The bells of Notre Dame 

Chorus 

Kyrie Eleison (Lord have mercy) 

Clopin 

Judge Claude Frollo longed 

To purge the world 

Of vice and sin 

Chorus 

Kyrie Eleison (Lord have mercy) 

Clopin 

And he saw corruption 

Ev'rywhere 

Except within 

Frollo 

Bring these gypsy vermin to the palace of justice 

Guard 

You there, what are you hiding? 

Frollo 

Stolen goods, no doubt. Take them from her 

Clopin 

She ran 

Chorus 

Dies irae, dies illa (Day of wrath, that day) 

Solvet saeclum in favilla (Shall consume the world in ashes) 

Teste David cum sibylla (As prophesied by David and the sibyl) 

Quantus tremor est futurus (What trembling is to be) 

Quando Judex est venturus (When the Judge is come) 

Gypsy 

Sanctuary, please give us sanctuary 

Frollo 

A baby? A monster! 

Archdeacon 

Stop! 

Clopin 

Cried the Archdeacon 

Frollo 

This is an unholy deamon. 

I'm sending it back to hell, where it belongs. 

Archdeacon 

See there the innocent blood you have spilt 

On the steps of Notre Dame 

Frollo 

I am guiltless. She ran, I pursued. 

Archdeacon 

Now you would add this child's blood to your guilt 

On the steps of Notre Dame 

Frollo 

My conscience is clear 

Archdeacon 

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 

Chorus 

Kyrie Eleison (Lord have mercy) 

Clopin 

And for one time in his live 

Of power and control 

Chorus 

Kyrie Eleison (Lord have mercy) 

Clopin 

Frollo felt a twinge of fear 

For his immortal soul 

Frollo 

What must I do? 

Archdeacon 

Care for the child, and raise it as your own 

Frollo 

What? I'd be settled with this misshapen ...? 

Very well. Let him live with you, in your church. 

Archdeacon 

Live here? Where? 

Frollo 

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 

Clopin 

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? 

Clopin and Chorus 

Sing the bells, bells, bells, bells 

Bells, bells, bells, bells 

Bells of Notre Dame
