Black Orpheus Page #3

Orpheus, will you dance with me?

Yes. Soon, at the rehearsal

How is everybody?

How are you, Caruso?

You two... always cuddling, huh?

- Would you ask him?

- No, you ask him

I would like to

ask you something

Is it true that you make the

sun rise by playing guitar?

- Of course I do!

- Didn't I tell you?

Could you make the

sun rise tomorrow?

Sure! Even better, since

tomorrow is carnival!

What do you play to

do that?

- I make it up.

- And you? Could you?

I could make up a melody!

I'd love to make the sun rise

Give him the guitar.

Just to ckeck it out

This is a very old guitar...

- "Orpheus is my master".

- Yes, that's true

There was an Orpheus before me.

And one may come after I'm gone

but I'm the one ruling now.

Do you understand that?

Don't be sad.

Don't tell anybody, OK?

I will play a new song

I just wrote

Pretty, isn't it?

Morning, such a pretty morning

A new song is born

Singing of your eyes,

your laughter, your hands

There will be a day

when you come

From the strings of my guitar

That only your love sought

A voice comes

And talks about kisses

Kisses lost in your lips

Sing, my heart,

happiness is back

In the dawn of this love

- What are you doing here?

- I have the right to...

Zeca, take the guitar!

You didn't see me!

- Isn't he here?

- Who?

Was that you playing?

Orpheus taught me

Where is he?

He just left with a woman

What?

Since you have the guitar,

play something

He'll hear me

That's even better. Play

You again? What are

you doing here?

Why didn't you tell me that

Serafina is your cousin?

So, we are close.

What's your name?

Don't you remember?

I'm Eurydice

Wonderful! I like you already!

Of course! Orpheus likes

Eurydice, as the story goes

Are you Orpheus?

- Yes, I am. From head to toe.

- But I... I don't like you

Yes, you do! Try to remember.

This is really an old story

Thousands of years ago, Orpheus

was sad and melancholic

like the bird

trapped in this cage

One day, from the strings of a

guitar, sought by only one love,

a voice spoke of lost kisses

from the lips of Eurydice

And Eurydice's lips were

trembling with anxiety...

and the perfumed flower of

her mouth opened slightly

No! You are too

young to remember

Yes... I remember

the words you sang...

- because they are the same!

- Exactly!

But it was the melody

I liked best

Forgive me, Eurydice

Look

I need to talk to him

No, leave them alone!

Orpheus, they're waiting

for you at the rehearsal!

Yes!

Well... I need to go

I know

I'll sing and dance for you!

- Are you coming?

- Yes, I am

Take good care of her!

Let's go!

See you later

Thanks

Why aren't you paying any
