Lyrics Hellfire - Patrick Page, The Hunchback of Notre Dame Ensemble & The Hunchback of Notre Dame Choir

Confiteor Deo omnipotenti
Beatae Mariae semper Virgini
Beato Michaeli Archangelo
Sanctis apostolis omnibus sanctis

Beata Maria, you know I am a righteous man
Of my virtue I am justly proud (et tibi Pater)
Beata Maria, you know I'm so much purer than
The common, vulgar, weak, licentious crowd (quia peccavi nimis)

Then tell me, Maria
Why I see her dancing there?
Why her smoldering eyes still scorch my soul? (Cogitatione)
I feel her, I see her
The sun caught in her raven hair
Is blazing in me out of all control (verbo et opere)

Like fire, hellfire
This fire in my skin
This burning desire
Is turning me to sin

It's not my fault (mea culpa)
I'm not to blame (mea culpa)
It is the gypsy girl
The witch who sent this flame (mea maxima culpa)
It's not my fault (mea culpa)
If in God's plan (mea culpa)
He made the devil
So much stronger than a man (mea maxima culpa)

Protect me, Maria
Don't let this siren cast her spell
Don't her fire sear my flesh and bone
Destroy Esmeralda
And let her taste the fires of Hell
Or else, let her be mine and mine alone

Hellfire, dark fire
Now Gypsy, it's your turn
Choose me or your pyre
Be mine or you will burn!

(Kyrie eleison) God have mercy on her
(Kyrie eleison) God have mercy on me
(Kyrie eleison) but she will be mine or she will burn!
