No one mourns the wicked [French translation]

CITIZENS OF OZ

Good news! She's dead!

The Witch of the West is dead!

The wickedest witch there ever was

The enemy of all of us here in Oz

Is dead!

Good news!

Good news!

OZIAN

(Spoken)

Look! It's Glinda!

GALINDA

(Spoken)

Fellow Ozians

(Sung)

Let us be glad

Let us be grateful

Let us rejoicify that goodness could subdue

The wicked workings of you-know-who

Isn't it nice to know

That good will conquer evil?

The truth we all believe'll by and by

Outlive a lie

For you and

MALE OR FEMALE OZIAN

No one mourns the wicked

FEMALE OZIAN

No one cries "They won't return!"

OZIANS

No one lays a lily on their grave

MALE OZIAN

The good man scorns the wicked!

FEMALE OZIANS

Through their lives, our children learn

OZIANS

What we miss, when we misbehave

GALINDA

And Goodness knows

The wicked's lives are lonely

Goodness knows

The wicked die alone

It just shows when you're wicked

You're left only

On your own

OZIANS

Yes, goodness knows

The wicked's lives are lonely

Goodness knows

The wicked cry alone

Nothing grows for the wicked

They reap only

What they've sown

GALINDA

(Spoken)

Are people born wicked?

Or do they have wickedness thrust upon them?

After all, she had

a father. She had a mother, as so many do

FATHER (FREX)

How I hate to go and leave you lonely.

MOTHER (MELENA)

That's alright - it's only just one night.

FATHER (FREX)

But know that you're here in my heart

While I'm out of your sight

GALINDA

(Spoken)

And like every family - they had their secrets?

LOVER

Have another drink, my dark-eyed beauty

I've got one more night left, here in town

So have another drink of green elixir

And we'll have ourselves a little mixer

Have another swallow, little lady,

And follow me down?

GALINDA

(Spoken)

And of course, from the moment she was born, she was - well - different

MIDWIFE (NANNY)

It's coming

FATHER (FREX)

Now?

MIDWIFE (NANNY)

The baby's coming

FATHER (FREX)

And how!

MIDWIFE (NANNY)

I see a nose

FATHER (FREX)

I see a curl

BOTH

It's a healthy, perfect,

Lovely, little

MIDWIFE (NANNY)

AAAHHH!!!!

FATHER (FREX)

(Spoken)

Sweet Oz!

MOTHER (MELENA)

(Spoken)

What is it? what's wrong?

MIDWIFE (NANNY)

How can it be?

FATHER (FREX)

What does it mean?

MIDWIFE (NANNY)

It's atrocious

FATHER (FREX)

It's obscene!

MIDWIFE (NANNY) and FATHER (FREX)

Like a froggy, ferny cabbage

The baby is unnaturally

ALL

Green!

FATHER (FREX)

(Spoken)

Take it away; take it away!

GALINDA

(Spoken)

So you see - it couldn't have been easy!

OZIANS

No one mourns the wicked!

Now at last, she's dead and gone!

Now at last, there's joy throughout the land

And goodness knows

Who spurn what Goodnesses

Goodness knows

The wicked die alone

GALINDA

She died alone

OZIANS

Woe to those

Who spurn what Goodness is

They are shown

No one mourns the Wicked

GALINDA

Good news!

OZIANS

No one mourns the Wicked!

GALINDA

Good news!

OZIANS and GALINDA

No one mourns the Wicked!

Wicked!

Wicked!
