1. A question of honour (extended version)

(Sarah)
Ebbene? ... N'andrò lontana,
Come va l'eco della pia campana,
Là, fra la neve bianca;
Là, fra le nubi d'or;
Là, dov'è la speranza, la speranza
Il rimpianto, il rimpianto, e il dolor!

Ebbene? ... N'andrò lontana,
Là, dov'è la speranza, la speranza
Il rimpianto
Sola e lontana!

(male choir)
Two men collide
When two men collide, when two men collide
Two men collide
When two men collide, when two men collide
(Sarah)
It's a question of honour
(male choir)
Two men collide
When two men collide, when two men collide
Two men collide
When two men collide, when two men collide
Two men collide
When two men collide, when two men collide
(Sarah)
It's a question of honour
It's a question of honour

(full choir)
If you win or you lose,
It's a question of honour
And the way that you choose,
It's a question of honour

(Sarah)
I can't tell what's wrong or right
If black is white or day is night
But I know when two men collide
It's a question of honour

(full choir)
If you win or you lose,
It's a question of honour
And the way that you choose,
It's a question of honour
If you win or you lose,
It's a question of honour
And the way that you choose,
It's a question of honour

If you win or you lose,
It's a question of honour
And the way that you choose,
It's a question of honour
If you win or you lose,
It's a question of honour
And the way that you choose,
It's a question of honour

(Sarah)
I can't tell what's wrong or right
If black is white or day is night
I know when two men collide
It's a question of honour

Ebbene? ... N'andrò lontana,
Come l'eco della pia campana,
Là, fra la neve bianca;
Là, fra le nubi d'or;
N'andrò, n'andrò sola e lontana!
E fra le nubi d'or!

                
Well then? I'll go far away,
As goes the echo from the pious bell
There, amid the white snow;
There, amid the golden clouds;
There, where hope is, hope,
Regret, regret, and sorrow!

Well then? I shall go far away,
There, where hope is, hope,
And regret
Alone and far away!

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Well then? I'll go far away,
As goes the echo from the pious bell
There, amid the white snow;
There, amid the golden clouds;
I'll go, I'll go alone and far away!
And amid the golden clouds!

There, amid the golden clouds;
I'll go, I'll go alone and far away!
And amid the golden clouds!

3. On the Nile

In my dreams I could be burning
Yellow with the sands of time
Through the heat I saw the shimmer
Heat of passion on my mind
Through your smile
On the Nile
Time is left for me reflecting
In the mirror of the Nile
Ooooooooooooo
Ooooooooooooo
Ooooooooooooo
Lalalalalalalala
Through your smile
On the Nile
Time is left for me reflecting
In the mirror of the Nile
I will hold you with my smile
Secret passions on the Nile
