Esmeralda's Prayer
I have never learnt to pray
Is that a good start?
Will You listen to a gypsy girl,
A Bohemian?
I am shunned everywhere
They remain far from me
I can see Your face and ask You
Are You too so rejected?
God, help the outcast
The dirt of the street
Grant your mercy
For there is none here
God, help my people
You made us in Your image
If You do not help us,
Then no one will
I ask for money
I ask for strength
I ask for wealth
Possessions and power
I ask for gold
My purse is empty
I ask God
And his angels for their blessing
I ask for no wealth
I ask for nothing for myself
I know so many
With less than us
The poor, the gypsies
I pray for them
Outcast of the earth
The children of God
Are we not all
The children of God?

Hellfire
Beata Maria
I'm a righteous man
Virtuous and as honest as the day is long
Beata Maria
I serve thee so much better than
Those who do not obey thy laws.
Why, Maria,
Do I keep seeing how she is dancing?
Why did her eyes burn my soul?
I feel her
I see her
The sun shining on her hair
Is like an iniquitous light inside of me
Like fire
Like flames
They touch my skin
This burning
Desire
Is fire from Hell
I don't know what guilt is
I'm not the one to blame
That witch keeps me trapped
In her flame
I don't know what guilt is
It's Gods plan
He made the Devil
So much stronger than man
Protect me, Maria
The devil's playing a game with me
Drive off her hellish flames around me
Exorcise Esmeralda
And let her burn in Hell
Or give her heart
To me
The fire
The flames
It will be your turn soon
Choose me or the flames
Choose me or Hell
God, be gracious unto her
God, be gracious unto me
But she'll have either choose me
Or the eternal fire

The Bells of Notre-Dame (Reprise)
Here is a riddle for you
Then guess if you can
The bell of Notre-Dame is ringing
What is a monster and what is a man?
You feel mesmerised
Your heart gets seduced
By the golden sound of the bell
Of the bells of Notre-Dame

Heaven's Light
I frequently watched
A couple, a couple in love
Looked at them full of disgust
They looked like they were surrounded by a glow
They walked in heaven's light
I thought something like that
Was not made for me
Even though I keep folding my hands closed
Because no face, so low, so ugly
Will shine in a heaven's light like that
From today onwards everything will change
I got struck by lightning
An angel kissed me
So my tranquillity is gone
I toll the bells, I fulfill my duty
And with it I give her a message
Surrounded by a heaven's light
