Prologue Lyrics

Two households both alike in dignity

In fair Verona where we lay our scene

From ancient grudge break to new mutiny

Where civil blood makes civil hands unclean

From forth the fatal loins of these two foes

A pair of star-crossed lovers take their life

Whose misadventured piteous overthrows

Doth with their death bury their parents' strife

For never was a story of more woe

Than this of Juliet and her Romeo

For never was a story of more woe

Than this of Juliet and her Romeo.
