Lyrics & Translation

[English]

[Voldemort] See what I must do to survive?

Live off another

a mere parasite.

Unicorn blood can sustain me.

But it cannot give me

a body of my own.

But there is something that can.

Something that,

conveniently enough,

lies in your pocket.

Stop him!

Don't be a fool.

Why suffer a horrific death

when you can join me and live?

Never!

Bravery.

Your parents had it too.

Tell me, Harry,

would you like to see your

mother and father again?

Together,

we can bring them back.

All I ask

is for something in return.

That's it, Harry.

There is no good and evil.

There is only power.

And those too weak to seek it.

Together,

we'll do extraordinary things.

Just give me the stone.

You liar!

Kill him!

What is this magic?

Fool, get the stone.

Good afternoon, Harry.

Ah,

tokens from your admirers.

Admirers?

What happened

down in the dungeons

between you and Professor Quirrell

is a complete secret.

So, naturally,

the whole school knows.

Ah, I see that your friend

Ronald has saved you the trouble

of opening your Chocolate Frogs.

Ron was here?

Is he all right?

What about Hermione?

Fine.

They're both just fine.

But what happened to the stone?

Relax, dear boy.

The stone has been destroyed.

My friend Nicolas and I

have had a little chat,

and agreed

it was best all around.

But then Flamel,

he'll die, won't he?

He has enough Elixir

to set his affairs in order.

But yes,

he will die.

How is it I got the stone, sir?

One minute I was staring

in the mirror and the next—

Ah, you see,

only a person

who wanted to find the stone,

find it,

but not use it,

would be able to get it.

That is one of my

more brilliant ideas.

And between you and me,

that is saying something.

Does that mean,

with the stone gone that is,

that Voldemort

can never come back?

Oh, I'm afraid

there are ways

in which he can return.

Harry, do you know

why Professor Quirrell

couldn't bear to

have you touch him?

It was because of your mother.

She sacrificed herself for you,

and that kind of act

leaves a mark.

No, no.

This kind of mark

cannot be seen.

It lives in your very skin.

What is it?

Love, Harry.

Love.

Ah,

Bertie Bott's Every Flavour Beans.

I was most unfortunate

in my youth

to come across a

vomit flavoured one.

And since then, I'm afraid

I've lost my liking for them.

But I think I could be safe

with a nice toffee.

Hmm.

Alas, ear wax.

All right there, Ron?

All right, you?

All right.

Hermione?

Never better.

Another year gone.

And now as I understand it,

the House Cup needs awarding.

And the points stand thus.

In fourth place,

Gryffindor with 312 points.

Third place,

Hufflepuff with 352 points.

In second place,

Ravenclaw with 426 points.

And in first place,

with 472 points,

Slytherin House.

Yeah!

Nice one.

Yes, yes, well done, Slytherin.

Well done, Slytherin.

However, recent events

must be taken into account,

and I have a few

last minute points to award.

To Miss Hermione Granger

for the cool use of intellect,

when others were in grave peril.

50 points.

Good job.

Second,

to Mr Ronald Weasley,

for the best played game of chess

that Hogwarts

has seen these many years.

50 points.

And third,

to Mr Harry Potter

for pure nerve

and outstanding courage.

I award Gryffindor House

60 points.

Key Grammar Structures

• Unicorn blood can sustain me.

  ➔ Modal verb 'can' expressing ability/possibility, present simple tense.

  ➔ The sentence uses the modal verb **'can'** to indicate what is *able* to sustain Voldemort. The verb **'sustain'** is in the present simple, describing a general truth in this context.

• Tell me, Harry, would you like to see your mother and father again?

  ➔ Tag question ('would you like'), conditional mood.

  ➔ This is a rhetorical question using a **tag question** ('would you like') to engage Harry and manipulate him. The **'would'** indicates a hypothetical situation, appealing to his desire to see his parents.

• There is no good and evil. There is only power.

  ➔ Indefinite pronouns ('no', 'only'), declarative sentence structure.

  ➔ This sentence uses **'no'** and **'only'** to create a stark contrast and express Voldemort's nihilistic worldview. It's a declarative statement presenting his philosophy.

• But then Flamel, he'll die, won't he?

  ➔ Future with 'will', tag question with negative contraction ('won't').

  ➔ The sentence uses **'will'** to express a future prediction about Flamel's fate. The **tag question 'won't he?'** seeks confirmation of this prediction, showing the speaker's concern.
