[The tragedy of Hamlet]
|
[Inspired by the play by William Shakespeare]
|
|
[ACT I]
|
Once past twelve sounds a bell
|
'Tis bitter cold at Elsinore
|
Three Danes await and watch the night
|
For the late king Hamlet's spectral sight
|
It comes again in warlike form
|
This spirit of health beckons his son
|
Father, king, royal Dane?
|
Tell me the reason why you came
|
I am the spirit of the king
|
I walk the night and burn by day
|
"Till the foul crimes done in my days
|
Of nature are burnt and purged away"
|
A serpents sting took my life
|
Now wears my crown and wed my wife
|
Avenge my death, remember me
|
Hamlet my son, kill the king!
|
|
[ACTS II and III]
|
A noble mind overthrown
|
Seized with madness
|
Dethrone!
|
Somewhat deceptive
|
To masque his designs
|
The prince will reap his vengeance in time
|
His lady love doth think him mad
|
Lord Chamberlain warns
|
Stay away!
|
The actors come hither
|
Presenting a play
|
Hamlet's intentions are underway
|
He has caught the conscience of the king
|
Railed the queen
|
Thought Claudius slain
|
Instead lay dead
|
The fool Chamberlain
|
Banished; to England Hamlet is sent
|
|
[ACT IV]
|
The sails were set for their destruction
|
Twice fell the night their ship is attacked
|
Death has strayed from his path to claim sweet Ophelia
|
The prince now returns enraged with wrath
|
He falls upon innocence returning to dust
|
Swears he laertes, Hamlet must
|
Pay for all grievances put on his house
|
Conspiracy lingers, the duel; a trap
|
