favourite line in les mis ?
oh goodness okay so i know the musical more than i know the brick but i’ll try
the musical
i fucking LOVE the part during epilogue right afterĀ ā€œto love another person is to see the face of godā€ (thats a good line too ngl) where the ensemble comes in behind eponine, fantine, jvj, cosette and marius but thats more musical than lyrical lol
ā€œeven the darkest night will end and the sun will riseā€ very tattoo-able line there šŸ‘€
ā€œrain will make the flowers growā€ im not sure if its meant this way in context of the song but to me it sounds along the lines of like, good things will always happen even if you’re in bad times right now (in fact i have it in a mural on my bedroom wall!)
again, more of a musical thing than lyrical, but the musical parallels between jvj’s What Have I Done and javert’s s-icide make me go hnnnhhhh they are symbolically Nice
the brick
ā€œWho has been unhooking the stars without my permission, and putting them on the table in the guise of candles?ā€ is really funny to me because grantaire’s just very poetically sayingĀ ā€œITS TOO BRIGHT IN HEREā€
everything aboutĀ ā€œto be freeā€
everything aboutĀ ā€œpermets-tuā€
similarly, the lines right before permets-tu when grantaire is waking up are just really pretty in my translation, tho the gay is very lacking (’shook his hand’ my ass)
ā€œThere is nothing like a dream to create the future.ā€ Ā don’t actually know if this is les mis, again, i dont know the brick that well but according too goodreads this is les mis :D
ā€œA group that barely missed being historicā€ so,, so sad,,
