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 That 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!
