夢やぶれて (ミュージカル「レ・ミゼラブル」より)

夢を見ていたわ 望み高く生きて
愛が全てだと 神は許し給うと

若く勇気溢れ 夢は輝いてた
自由にはばたき 歓び追いかけた

夢は悪夢に 狼の牙が
望み引き裂き 夢喰いちぎり

夏 あの人来て 喜びに溢れた
私抱いたけど 秋にはもういない

待ち続けてるわ あの人の帰りを
愚かな幻 木枯らしが吹き消し

夢見た人生 今地獄に落ちて
二度と私には
夢は かえらない

Broken Dreams (From the Musical "Les Misérables")

I dreamed a dream, I lived with hope so high
That love would conquer all, and God would hear my cry

Young and full of courage, my dreams did brightly shine
I soared with freedom, chasing joys divine

But dreams turned nightmares, with fangs of a cruel beast
Hope was torn asunder, my dreams they did not feast

Summer brought your presence, my heart filled with delight
You held me in your arms, but vanished with the night

I wait here still for you, for your return to me
A foolish illusion, the wind whispers free

The life I dreamed of, now descends to hell
And nevermore for me,
Will dreams return, farewell
