EPONINE

Don't you fret, M'sieur Marius

I don't feel any pain

A little fall of rain

Can hardly hurt me now

You're here, that's all I need to know

And you will keep me safe

And you will keep me close

And rain will make the flowers grow.



MARIUS

But you will live, 'Ponine - dear God above,

If I could heal your wounds with words of love.



EPONINE

Just hold me now, and let it be.

Shelter me, comfort me



MARIUS

You would live a hundred years

If I could show you how

I won't desert you now...



EPONINE

The rain can't hurt me now

This rain will wash away what's past

And you will keep me safe

And you will keep me close

I'll sleep in your embrace at last.



The rain that brings you here

Is Heaven-blessed!

The skies begin to clear

And I'm at rest

A breath away from where you are

I've come home from so far

So don't you fret, M'sieur Marius



I don't feel any pain

A little fall of rain

Can hardly hurt me now



That's all I need to know

And you will keep me safe

And you will keep me close



MARIUS(in counterpoint)

Hush-a-bye, dear Eponine,

You won't feel any pain

A little fall of rain

Can hardly hurt you now

I'm here



I will stay with you

Till you are sleeping



EPONINE

And rain...



MARIUS

And rain...



EPONINE

Will make the flowers...



MARIUS

Will make the flowers... grow...



(She dies. Marius kisses her, then lays her on the ground)



ENJOLRAS

She is the first to fall

The first of us to fall upon this barricade



MARIUS

Her name was Eponine

Her life was cold and dark, yet she was unafraid.



COMBEFERRE

We fight here in her name



PROUVAIRE

She will not die in vain.



LESGLES

She will not be betrayed.



(They carry her body off)
