Belle

"Belle" from Notre-Dame de Paris. This meshes two versions of The Hunchback of Notre Dame: Notre-Dame de Paris and Disney's Hunchback of Notre Dame. I am using the French version of this song. For those of you who do not speak French here is the literal English translation (obtained from the subtitles on the Notre-Dame de Paris DVD):

"Beauty
It seems a word invented for her
When she dances, revealing her body
Like a bird spreads its wings to fly
I feel the devil take me by the feet
My eyes gazed under her gipsy dress
What shall I pray to Mary for?
Who
Will cast the first stone at her?
He who does not deserve to live
Oh Satan! Oh! Let me just once
Pass my fingers through the hair of Esmeralda

Beauty
Is she the devil incarnate
Leading me from the Eternal Lord
Who has bewitched me with carnal desire
To turn me from heaven above?
She carries inside the original sin
Am I a criminal if I desire her?
She
Who all thought a w****, a girl of the street
Suddenly seems to be humanity's burden
Oh! I beseech you Our Lady Oh! Allow me just once
The entrance to Esmeralda's garden

Beauty
Behind those eyes that cast a spell
Could the girl still be a maiden
When the moves she makes promise me the earth
Underneath her rainbow skirt
My betrothed, leave me one infidelity
Before we're joined by God
What
Man could resist gazing at her
At the risk of becoming transfixed?
Oh! My Lilly Flower
I'm not a man to trust
I'll pluck the flower of Esmeralda's love

My eyes gazed under her gipsy dress
What shall I pray to Mary for?
Who
Will cast the first stone at her?
He who does not deserve to live
Oh Satan! Oh! Let me just once
Pass my fingers through the hair of Esmeralda
Esmeralda"

Honestly, the best HoND video I've seen with "Belle", and trust me, there's a lot out there. Great, great job! =D five stars and faves.

[LordCutlerBeckett]

Thank you very much for the compliment! I am glad you enjoyed the video! :D I really enjoyed making it.

[gummibear345]

Ooh, this is awesome! I love both HoND and NDdP so this is freaking COOL. XD

But is that Daniel Lavoie as Frollo? It doesn't really sound like him. O.o

[LordCutlerBeckett]

Thank you, and yes that is Daniel Lavoie. The song is from the original Paris cast soundtrack.

[AsylumNsanity]

I absolutely loved this video (i'm downloading it for my ipod). Great job ^_^

[LordCutlerBeckett]

Oh wow! Thank you so much! :D

[Faunatik]

Well, without her there would be no story...

And the song is "Belle".  ;)

(Phoebus)

Beautiful Despite her big eyes which bewitch you Might the girl still be a virgin? Her movements let me glimpse mountains and wonders Under her rainbow coloured skirt My beloved, let me be unfaithful to you Before I've led you to the altar What Man could turn his gaze from her Even should he risk being turned into a pillar of salt

Oh Fleur-De-Lis I am not a man of faith I will go and pluck Esmeralda's flower of love

[dzve]

(Frollo)

Beautiful Is she the devil incarnate Come to turn my eyes away from the eternal Lord, Putting this carnal desire inside of me To prevent me from looking to Heaven? She carries original sin inside of her Does desiring her make me a criminal? She Who we thought to be a girl of pleasure, a nobody Suddenly seems to be carrying the cross of the human race Oh our Lady! Oh! Let me, just once Push open Esmeralda's garden-door

[dzve]

(Quasimodo)

Beautiful You'd think the word was invented for her When she dances, revealing her body, like A bird spreading its wings ready to fly Then I feel Hell opening under my feet My gaze has fallen on her gypsy's dress What good could it do me now to pray to our Lady? Who Will cast the first stone against her? He doesn't deserve to live

Oh Lucifer! Oh! Let me, just once, Slide my fingers through Esmeralda's hair

[dzve]

Great video :) I found the literal translation into English where the lyrics are a bit different from the DVD subtitles (and I must say I like that translation more). Other than that, your video is awesome *adds to favourites*

[PoeticAngel65]
