Agony [Finnish translation]

[CINDERELLA'S PRINCE]

Did I abuse her

Or show her disdain?

Why does she run from me?

If I should lose her,

How shall I regain

The heart she has won from me?

Agony!

Beyond power of speech,

When the one thing you want

Is the only thing out of your reach.

[RAPUNZEL'S PRINCE]

High in her tower,

She sits by the hour,

Maintaining her hair.

Blithe and becoming and frequently humming

A lighthearted air:

Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-

Agony!

Far more painful than yours,

When you know she would go with you

If there only were doors.

[BOTH]

Agony!

Oh, the torture they teach!

[RAPUNZEL'S PRINCE]

What's as intriguing-

[CINDERELLA'S PRINCE]

Or half so fatiguing-

[BOTH]

As what's out of reach?

[CINDERELLA'S PRINCE]

Am I not sensitive,

Clever,

Well-mannered,

Considerate,

Passionate,

Charming,

As kind as I'm handsome

And heir to a throne?

[RAPUNZEL'S PRINCE]

You are everything maidens could wish for!

[CINDERELLA'S PRINCE]

Then why no-?

[RAPUNZEL'S PRINCE]

Do I know?

[CINDERELLA'S PRINCE]

The girl must be mad!

[RAPUNZEL'S PRINCE]

You know nothing of madness

Till you're climbing her hair

And you see her up there

As you're nearing her,

All the while hearing her:

Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-

[BOTH]

Agony!

[CINDERELLA'S PRINCE]

Misery!

[RAPUNZEL'S PRINCE]

Woe!

[BOTH]

Though it's different for each.

[CINDERELLA'S PRINCE]

Always ten steps behind-

[RAPUNZEL'S PRINCE]

Always ten feet below-

[BOTH]

And she's just out of reach.

Agony

That can cut like a knife!

I must have her to wife.
