Peter's Denial

MAID BY THE FIREI think I've seen you somewhere.
I remember,
You were with that man they took away.
I recognize your face.
PETERYou've got the wrong man lady.
I don't know him,
And I wasn't where he was tonight
Never near the place.
SOLDIERThat's strange, for I am sure I saw you with with him.
You were right by his side, and yet you denied.
PETERI tell you I was never ever with him.
OLD MANBut I saw you too. It looked just like you.
PETERI don't know him!
MARY MAGDALENEPeter, don't you know what you have said?
You've gone and cut him dead.
PETERI had to do it, don't you see?
Or else they'd go for me.
MARY MAGDALENEIt's what he told us you would do.
I wonder how he knew.

Le Dénégation de Pierre

SERVANTE AUPRÈS DU FEUI think I've seen you somewhere.
Je me souviens,
Tu étais avec cet homme qu'ils ont emmené.
Je reconnais ton visage.
PIERREYou've got the wrong man lady.
Je ne le connais pas,
Et je n'étais pas là où il était ce soir
Jamais près de l'endroit.
SOLDATThat's strange, for I am sure I saw you with with him.
Tu étais juste à ses côtés, et pourtant tu as nié.
PIERREJe te dis que je n'ai jamais été avec lui.
VIEIL HOMME Mais je t'ai vu aussi. Cela ressemblait à toi.
PIERREJe ne le connais pas !
MARIE MAGDA­LÈNEPierre, ne sais-tu pas ce que tu as dit ?
Tu l'as renié.
PIERREJe devais le faire, ne comprends-tu pas ?
Sinon, ils s'en prendraient à moi.
MARIE MAGDA­LÈNE C'est ce qu'il nous a dit que tu ferais.
Je me demande comment il le savait.
