Overture (Live at the Royal Albert Hall) - Andrew Lloyd Webber

This trophy from our saviours

From our saviours from the enslaving force of Rome

With feasting and dancing and song

Tonight in celebration

We greet the victorious throng

Returned to bring salvation

The trumpets of Carthage resound Hear

Romans now and tremble

Hark to our step on the ground

Hear the drums Hannibal comes

Sad to return to find the land we love

Threatened once more by Roma's far-reaching grasp

No no no no

Senor if you please Rome

Me say Rome

Roma Rome Rome is very hard

Well once again from "Sad to return" (very very hard)

Please (Rome) senor

Sad to return to find the land we love

Threatened once more by Rome's far-reaching grasp

Tomorrow we shall brighten the chimes of Rome

Til I rejoice your army has come home

Bid welcome to Hannibal's guests the elephants of Carthage

As guides on our conquering quests Dido sends Hannibal's friends

Once more to the arms

Once more to the sweetness of charms

My heart

The trumpeting elephants sound hear Romans now and tremble

Hark to their step on the ground hear the drums Hannibal comes

Thanks all again

In act III of Hannibal I wonder Alyssa as a personal favor

Monsieur Reyer commands

Will two bars will quite sufficient

Two bars will be sufficient

Senora
