Wicked : The Wizard And I

 

Wicked

The Wizard And I

 

 

얼떨결에 사람들 앞에서 자신의 마법능력을 보여주게된 엘파바.

학교 교장은 그녀에게 특별 마법수업을 제안하여 Wizard를 만나게 될 것이라고 이야기한다.

오래 전부터 꿈꿔온 마법사와의 만남, 그에 대한 엘파바의 기대감을 노래한 곡이다. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Lyric

 

 

Oh, Miss Elphaba...

Many years I have waited

 

For a gift like yours to appear

Why I predict^[각주:1] the Wizard could make you his

Magic! grand vizier^[각주:2]! My dear, my dear.

I'll write at once to the Wizard tell him of you in advance^[각주:3]

with a talent like yours, dear

There is a definish chance

If you work as you should

You'll be making good

 

Did that really just happen?

Have I actually understood?

This weird^[각주:4] quirk^[각주:5] I've tried to suppress^[각주:6] or hide

Is a talent that could help me meet the wizard

If I make good. So I'll make good.

 

When I meet the Wizard once I prove my worth

And then I meet the Wizard what I've waited for since : since birth!

And with all his wizard wisdom by my looks, he won't be blinded

Do you think the Wizard is dumb^[각주:7]?

Or like Munchkins, so small-minded? No!

He'll say to me, "I see who you truly are - A girl on whom I can rely^[각주:8]"

And that's how we'll begin the Wizard and I

 

Once I'm with the Wizard my whole life will change

'Cuz once you're with the Wizard no one thinks you're strange

No father is not proud of you, no sister acts ashamed

And all of Oz has to love you when by the Wizard you're acclaim^[각주:9]ed

And this gift or this curse I have inside maybe at last, I'll know why

When we are hand and hand

The Wizard and I

 

And one day he'll say to me "Elphaba, a girl who is so superior

Shouldn't a girl who's so good inside have a matching exterior?

And since folks here to an absurd^[각주:10] degree^[각주:11] seem fixate^[각주:12]d on your verdigris

^[각주:13]Would it be alright by you if I de-greenify you?"

 

And though of course that's not important to me

"All right, why not?" I'll reply

Oh, what a pair we'll be the Wizard and I :

Yes, what a pair we'll be the WIzard and I

 

Unlimited, my future is unlimited

And I've just had a vision almost like a prophecy^[각주:14]

I know - it sounds truly crazy

And true, the vision's hazy^[각주:15]

But I swear, someday there'll be

A celebration throughout Oz

That's all to do with me!

 

And I'll stand there with the Wizard

Feeling things I never felt

And though I'd never show it

I'll be so happy, I could melt

And so it will be for the rest of my life

And I'll want nothing else till I die

Held in such high esteem^[각주:16]

when people see me, they will scream

For half of Oz's favorite team :

The Wizard and I
