Final Fantasy III

The cast of FFIII

Celes Chere, former general of the Empire.

"I'm a general, not some opera floozy!"--Celes, when told to disguise as the real opera singer, Maria.

Maria:

Oh my hero, so far away now.
Will I ever see your smile?
Love goes away, like night into day.
It's just a fading dream...

I'm the darkness, you're the stars.
Our love is brighter than the sun.
For eternity, for me there can be
Only you, my chose one...

Must I forget you? Our solemn promise?
Will autumn take the place of spring?
What shall I do? I'm lost without you.
Speak to me once more!

We must part now.
My life goes on.
But my heart won't give you up.

Throw flower

Ere I walk away,
Let me hear you say
I meant as much to you...

So gently
You touched my heart.
I will be forever yours.

Come what may,
I won't age a day.
I'll wait for you, always...

The opera stage and orchestra

Here's the music that goes with it.

Coming soon: the entire opera. (Which is not much more, just a scene before and a scene after this song.)

Here are a few pictures of Mog the moogle and a Chocobo bird. They're just too cute. : )
