Lyrics: Into the Fire (The Scarlet Pimpernel)

English translation of lyrics from the Takarazuka production of the Broadway musical.

Percy:
Moses took a chance in the Exodus from Egypt
And then the sea opened to make a road

No matter when or where
There will be towering mountains and deep valleys

In tempestuous seas or deep jungles
If you keep on you will find a road

Don’t look back from the perilous dark
If you don’t give up your victory is sure

There will surely be times when you tremble in fear, comrades
But your will to fight is the one thing you can’t lose, comrades
Keep on without hesitating
Go forward without doubts
We’ll jump into the fire with all of our pride

If the way forward and back are both blocked
We’ll fearlessly break through the enemy’s lines

League:
Discarding our fear and without looking back
We will save those trapped in the inferno

Even if the whole world turns against us
We will fulfill our God-given duty

Percy:
Keep on without hesitating
Go forward without doubts

All:
We’ll jump into the fire with all of our pride

Percy:
Let the lightning flash
It will drive away our fear
We’ll cross the stormy seas
And row through the sea of flames

All:
Even if the whole world turns against us
We will fulfill our God-given duty

Percy:
Keep on without hesitating
Go forward without doubts

All:
We’ll jump into the fire with all of our pride
