Florence [English translation]

[Frollo]:

Speak to me of Florence

And of the Renaissance

Speak to me of Bramante

And of Dante's Inferno

[Gringoire]:

In Florence it is said

That the earth is round

And that there is another

Continent in this world

Boats have already departed on the ocean

To find the gate of the passage to India

[Frollo]:

Luther is going to rewrite the New Testament

And we are at the dawn of a world that is splitting apart

[Gringoire]:

A man named Gutenberg

Has changed the face of the world

[Frollo]:

On the presses of Nuremberg

We are printing every second

[Gringoire]:

Poems on paper

Speeches and pamphlets

[Frollo and Gringoire]:

Of new ideas

That are going to sweep everything away

[Gringoire]:

The little things always triumph over the large

And literature will kill architecture

[Frollo]:

The scholarly books will kill the cathedrals

The Bible will kill the Church, and man will kill God

This will kill that

[Frollo and Gringoire]:

Boats have already departed on the ocean

To find the gate of the passage to India

Luther is going to rewrite the New Testament

And we are at the dawn of a world that is splitting apart

This will kill that

This will kill that
