Charles Gounod-Valentine's Cavatina from Faust(French subtitles)

Павел Напалков-баритон.Pavel Napalkov-baritone. Ирина Григорьева-фортепиано.Irina Grigorieva-piano. Valentin: O holy medal, Which my sister gave me, On the day of battle Remain on my heart To ward off Death! Before I leave this town, My forefathers' native place, To you, Lord and King of Heaven, Do I entrust my sister. I beg you to defend her From every peril, My beloved sister. Freed from this harrowing thought, I shall seek glory in the enemy's ranks, The first, the bravest, in the thick of the fray, I shall go and fight for my country. And if God should call me to his side, I shall faithfully watch over you, O Marguerite. Before I leave, etc. O King of Heaven, hear my prayer And defend Marguerite, O King of Heaven. 1869
