One Hand, One Heart



The Bridal Shop - The next day, 5:30 p.m.
(Maria is sewing a wedding veil; Tony enters. She
persuades him to try to stop the fight. After planning
to meet that evening, they arrange the mannequins in
bridal party garb for a mock wedding, then kneel, as
before an altar.)

TONY: I, Anton, take thee, Maria...

MARIA: I, Maria, take thee, Anton...

TONY: For richer, for poorer...

MARIA: In sickness and in health...

TONY: To love and to honor...

MARIA: To hold and to keep...

TONY: From each sun to each moon...

MARIA: From tomorrow to tomorrow...

TONY: From now to forever...

MARIA: Till death do us part.

TONY: With this ring, I thee wed.

MARIA: With this ring, I thee wed.

TONY: Make of our hands one hand,
Make of our hearts one heart,
Make of our vows one last vow
Only death will part us now

MARIA: Make of our lives one life,
Day after day one life.

BOTH:
Now it begins, now we start
One hand one heart;
Even death won't part us now.
(They rise and slowly put the mannequins back
into position.)

BOTH: Make of our lives one life,
Day after day one life.
Now it begins, now we start
One hand one heart;
Even death won't part us now.
