(performed by Michael Ball, Anthony Warlowe, Kenny D'Aquila, Tim Bowman, Jordan Bennett, William Solo & Les Misérables: International Cast)
(from "Les Misérables: The Complete Symphonic Recording" soundtrack)
[Students:]
Now we pledge ourselves to hold this barricade
[Marius:]
Let them come in their legions and they will be met!
[Enjolras:]
Have faith in yourselves and don't be afraid
[Grantaire:]
Let's give 'em a screwing they'll never forget!
[Combeferre:]
This is where it begins!
[Courfeyrac:]
And if I should die in the fight to be free
Where the fighting is hardest, there will I be
[Feuilly:]
Let them come if they dare
We'll be there!
[Army officer:]
You at the barricade listen to this!
No one is coming to help you to fight!
You're on your own
You have no friends
Give up your guns or die!
[Enjolras:]
Damn their warnings. Damn their lies!
They will see the people rise!
[Students:]
Damn their warnings. Damn their lies!
They will see the people rise!
Now we pledge ourselves to hold this barricade
[Marius:]
Let them come in their legions and they will be met!
[Enjolras:]
Have faith in yourselves and don't be afraid
[Grantaire:]
Let's give 'em a screwing they'll never forget!
[Combeferre:]
This is where it begins!
[Courfeyrac:]
And if I should die in the fight to be free
Where the fighting is hardest, there will I be
[Feuilly:]
Let them come if they dare
We'll be there!
[Army officer:]
You at the barricade listen to this!
No one is coming to help you to fight!
You're on your own
You have no friends
Give up your guns or die!
[Enjolras:]
Damn their warnings. Damn their lies!
They will see the people rise!
[Students:]
Damn their warnings. Damn their lies!
They will see the people rise!
