[The barricade is now complete.] Students Now we pledge ourselves to hold this barricade Let them come in their legions And they will be met Have faith in yourselves And don't be afraid Let's give 'em a screwing That they'll never forget! This is where it begins! And if I should die in the fight to be free Where the fighting is hardest There will I be Let them come if they dare We'll be there! Army Officer [Offstage] You at the barricade listen to this No one is coming to help you to fight You're on your own You have no friends Give up your guns - or die! Enjolras Damn their warnings, damn their lies They will see the people rise! Students Damn their warnings, damn their lies They will see the people rise! [Javert climbs over the barricade.] Javert Listen my friends I have done as I said I have been to their lines I have counted each man I will tell what I can Better be warned They have armies to spare And the danger is real We will need all our cunning To bring them to heel. Enjolras Have faith If you know what their movements are We'll spoil their game There are ways that a people can fight We shall overcome their power Javert I have overheard their plans There will be no attack tonight They intend to starve us out Before they start a proper fight Concentrate their force Hit us from the right.
