Songtexte A Midsummer Night's Dream, Op. 64: "Are We All Met?" - Owen Brannigan feat. Norman Lumsden, Kenneth McDonald, David Kelly, Robert Tear, Keith Raggett, Stephen Terry, London Symphony Orchestra & Benjamin Britten




Are we all met?
Yes
And is a marvelous convenient place for a rehearsal
For a rehearsal
For a rehearsal
For a rehearsal
Pitous vince
What sayest thou, bully Bottom?
There are things in this comedy that will never please
First Pyramus must do assault to kill
Himself, which the ladies cannot abide
Abide
Abide
Violated
Violated
Upon us here
Upon us here
Upon us here
I believe we must leave the killing out when all is done
Not a whit
Not a whit
I have a device to make all well
Write me a prologue
Tell them that I, Pyramus, am not Pyramus but Bottom the Weaver
This will put them out to fear
Will not the ladies be afeard of the lion?
Afeard
I fear it, I promise you
Therefore, another prologue must tell them
Plainly, he is not a lion, but Snout the joiner
But there is two harder things
That is, to bring the moonlight into the chamber
For you know, Pyramus and Thisbe meet by moonlight
Doth the moon shine that night which they outweigh?
A calendar
A calendar
Look in the almanac
Find out
Moonshine
Find out
Moonshine
Moonshine
Moonshine
Moonshine
For that one must come in with a bush of thorns in the
Lanthorn and say he comes to present a person of moonshine
Moonshine
Moonshine
Then there is another thing
We must have a wall in the great chamber
You can never bring in a wall
What say you, Bottom?
Some man or other must present Wall
And let him hold his fingers thus
Thus
And through the clanny shall Pyramus and Thisbe whisper
Then all is well
Then all is well
Then all is well
Then all is well
Come sit down, every mother's son, and reassure
Parts, every man according to his cue
Pyramus, you begin
What hempen homespuns have we swaggering here
So near the cradle of our fairy queen?
Speak, Pyramus
Thisbe stands forth
Thisbe, the flowers of odious savors sweet
Odorous
Odorous
Odorous savors sweet, so hath thy breath, my dearest Thisbe dear
But hark, a voice
Stay now, love, here awhile, and by and by I will go thee appert
I'll follow you
I will lead you about and round
Must I speak now?
Ay, marry, must you, for you must understand he
Goes but to see a noisy herd and is to come again
Most radiantly, thou must mostly be white of hue
Of color like the red rose on triumphant brier
Most brisky juvenal of eve most lovely too
As true, as true, as toast that ever yet would tire
I meekly Pyramus at thee ease to look
Why, you must not speak that yet, that you answer to Pyramus
You speak all your part at once, cues and all
Pyramus, enter
Your cue is past
It is never time
As true, as true, as toast that ever yet would tire
If I were fair, Thisbe, I were only...
Oh, masters!
Oh, spring!
Flee, masters!
Flee, masters!
Run away
Run away
Run away
This is a day for it and make me afeard
Afeard
Bottom
Bottom
Thou changed
Changed
What do I see on thee?
What do you see?
What do you see?
You see an essain of yabo, do you?
Do you?
Blest be Bottom
Blest be Bottom
Blest be Bottom
Thou art translated
Thou art translated
