Faust: All the sciences that I’ve learned Can’t tell me why my heart had burned. And I feel like an old man. I’m old, I’m an old man.
I wanna know what life is! I wanna know what life is!
Выходит хор студентов.
Choir: Chemistry, Physics and Math
Faust: They said I’m genius but I’m not I’m not more than nothing in a cast-iron pot And I feel like an old man. I’m old, I’m an old man.
I wanna know what life is! I want to know just what it is!
Хор окружает Фауста.
Choir: Oh, master, we’re close to the sky Remember past and feel that we are high Please, teach us how to speak to crowd We’re all in books we know a lot and they are loud. How do you think, can man be grown To answer all the questions, asked by his own?
Фауст выходит из круга.
Faust: Don’t be so confident, the scholars, not for you The secrets of the past. Just care for what you do. The secrets saved from your inquiring mind. To solve them, in your soul you have to find.
Хор встает в кучу, обращается к Фаусту.
Choir:
Oh, master, we are close to God We won’t be scared of earthquakes and of flood Please, teach us how to grasp all in the world We’ll turn the rock to flesh and ash to gold.
Faust: There's lots of things that man can't do. He's weak and mortal, made of thirst and woe. We can "go", but cannot make it stop, Still we can kill but we can't get it back to top (6мин)
Хор уходит.
I am man, why I am man? I feel like an old man.
I wanna know what life is! I wanna know what life is! 28.10.13 То, что choir - это студенты
