“Adieu My Good and Tender Sister...”
QUEEN
Adieu my good and tender sister
I am condemned to die
My only regret is to abandon my children
My children, my God, how it tears me to leave them
My love for them was always first and last
My God, I miss my children so

REVOLUTIONARY PRIEST
Madame Antoine, if we could only turn back the clock
TO that garden in Vienna

MARIE THERESE & FEMALE CHORUS
Madame Antoine, Madame Antoine
Mother is calling, darkness is falling

QUEEN
Monsieur, I know thee not

REVOLUTIONARY PRIEST
The oak tree without and the peach tree within
Your mother was calling
The darkness was falling

QUEEN
MY little cock robin pray kneel here beside me
The dance is about to begin
REVOLUTIONARY PRIEST
Courage Madame, in this great rebirth
Like wind-fallen fruit we return to the earth

QUEEN
I saw but a priest

REVOLUTIONARY PRIEST
I am but a man
Madame, please take my hand

QUEEN
Monsieur, please take my hand
