Number 1: Beautiful
Jacquimo:
Why, what is the matter, Thumbelina?
Thumbelina:
I'm cold. I'm lost. And I'm hungry. And the beetle says I'm ugly.
Jacquimo:
Oh, you love the beetle?
Thumbelina:
No.
Jacquimo:
Then never mind the beetle. Good riddance to the beetle. Does Prince Cornelius think you are ugly?
Thumbelina:
No, he thinks I'm beautiful.
Jacquimo:
And so you are, mon ami.
Thumbelina:
I'm going home. Jacquimo? Will you find the Vale of the Fairies?
Jacquimo:
I promise.
Thumbelina:
Thank you, Jacquimo. Thank you.
Jacquimo:
Tomorrow is a new day.
Number 2: Fairy Court
Cornelius:
Oh, Thumbelina. Oh, wow. Something… Something happened to me tonight I never wanna forget.
Thumbelina:
Me too. Do not forget me.
Cornelius:
Forget-me-nots. I'll never forget you. Never.
Thumbelina:
Never, never.
Tabitha [offstage]:
Cornelius!
Cornelius:
Oh mother. What--? Mother!
Tabitha [offstage]:
Cornelius, come now.
Thumbelina:
Who are those people?
Cornelius:
Sh, Sh, Sh, Sh, Sh. That's the queen of the fairies, my mother.
Thumbelina:
Your mother?
Cornelius:
I must go now, but.... Can I see you tomorrow?
Thumbelina:
Your mother? Then you, you are the.... Tomorrow? Yes.
Tabitha [offstage]:
Cornelius.
Colbert [offstage]:
Cornelius.
Cornelius:
I've gotta go. And then I'll be back for you in the morning.
Thumbelina:
And then we'll live happily ever after.
Cornelius:
Oh, much longer.
Number 3: Thorn
Thumbelina:
Please be warm, dear friend. Please live. I’m sorry for all the trouble I’ve caused you. I know now… There’s no place in this big world for little people. We cannot do impossible things. Perhaps I should marry the Mole. He could take care of me. He could. I will marry the Mole.
Jacquimo:
You are joking.
Thumbelina:
Ja- Jacquimo?
Jacquimo:
Marry the prince.
Thumbelina:
Jacquimo, you’re awake. Oh, oh Jacquimo.
Jacquimo:
Ow, ow!
Thumbelina:
Oh, oh, I’m sorry.
Jacquimo:
I have a thorn in my wing.
Thumbelina:
A thorn? Hold still. Ah. There.
Jacquimo:
Oh, now it will get better.
Thumbelina:
Don’t get up!
Jacquimo:
No, no, I go to find the Vale of the Fairies and the prince.
Thumbelina:
You silly bird, Be realistic. Cornelius is gone.
Jacquimo:
I – I will find him. Remember—
Thumbelina:
Jacquimo, don’t.
Jacquimo:
You’re sure to do impossible things…
Thumbelina:
No, don’t. Stop! Stop it, Jacquimo!
Jacquimo:
…If you follow your heart. Bon voyage, mon amie.
Thumbelina:
Jacquimo. Stop torturing me. Cornelius is dead.
