[
Day breaks.]
Enjolras The people have not stirred We are abandoned by those who still live in fear. The people have not heard. Yet will will not abandon those who cannot hear. Let us not waste lives Let all the women and fathers of children Go from here.
Feuilly Drink with me to days gone by Sing with me the songs we knew
All At the shrine of friendship Raise your glass high Let the wine of friendship Never run dry If I die I die with you!THE SECOND ATTACK (
The Death of Gavroche) [
The battle recommences.]
Enjolras How do we stand, Feuilly? Make your report.
Feuilly We've guns enough But ammunition short
Marius Let me go into the streets There are bodies all around Ammunition to be had Lots of bullets to be found!
Enjolras I won't let you go It's too much of a chance.
Marius The same is true For any man here!
Valjean Let me go He's no more than a boy I am old I have nothing to fear
Gavroche You need somebody quicker And I volunteer! [
Gavroche climbs the barricade.]
Lesgles Come back Gavroche, don't you dare!
Joly Someone pull him down at once!
Gavroche Look at me, I'm almost there! [A shot rings out from beyond the barricade. Gavroche is hit.]
Gavroche Little people know, when Little people fight, we [
Another shot is fired.] May look easy pickings But we've got some bite! [
He is hit again.] So never kick a dog Because he's just a pup We'll fight like twenty armies And we won't give up So you'd better run for cover When the pup grows...... [
He dies.]
