[Fantine is lying in a hospital bed, deliriously dreaming of her daughter Cosette.] FantineCosette, it's turned so cold
Cosette, it's past your bedtimeYou've played the day away
And soon it will be night.
Come to me, Cosette, the light is fadingDon't you see the evening star appearing?
Come to me, and rest against my shoulder
How fast the minutes fly away and every minute colder.
Hurry near, another day is dyingDon't you hear, the winter wind is crying'There's a darkness which comes without a warning
But I will sing you lullabies and wake you in the morning. [Valjean enters.] ValjeanOh, Fantine, our time is running out
But Fantine, I swear this on my life FantineLook, M'sieur, where all the children play ValjeanBe at peace, be at peace evermore. FantineMy Cosette... ValjeanShall live in my protection FantineTake her now ValjeanYour child will want for nothing FantineGood M'sieur, you come from God in Heaven. ValjeanAnd none will ever harm CosetteAs long as I am living. FantineTake my hand,
The night grows ever colder. ValjeanThen I will keep you warm. FantineTake my child, I give her to your keeping. ValjeanTake shelter from the storm FantineFor God's sake, please stay till I am sleeping
And tell Cosette I love her
And I'll see her when I wake... [She dies with a smile; Javert arrives.]
