The Shepherdess: Who do you like?
The Chimney Sweep: Me? I love only you. And you?
The Shepherdess: Me too, I love only you! You are the nicest chimney sweeper I ever knew.
The Chimney Sweep: And you are the prettiest shepherdess I ever saw.
The Shepherdess: Have you seen many others?
The Chimney Sweep: No, nor have I ever dreamed of another.
The Statue: Believe in my long experience: I already said it to you both a hundred times, you are not made for one another. For starters you do not have the same colour. A shepherdess... and a chimney sweeper! It is out of the question! Out of the question!

The Bird: Be careful children. Many will be after you. Do not panic! If things become complicated, call me. I'll come and help you!
The Shepherdess: But how will we call you?
The Bird: Just shout 'Bird'! And the bird will come!

The Blind: Hello, children. Who are you? Where are you from? Do you bring news? Does this world truly exist? Is it true that the Sun is shining?
The Shepherdess and the Chimney Sweep:
[in unison] Yes, it is true. We can see it.
The Blind: How is it?
The Chimney Sweep: It shines. It is very yellow!
The Shepherdess: It is golden when it rises and any red when it sets.
The Chimney Sweep: We saw the Moon too. We can tell you what it's like!
The Shepherdess: The Bird explained it to us!
The Blind: 'The Bird'? They also saw a bird! I told you friends! We are saved! The world exists! The Sun is shining! And there are birds! Ah life is beautiful! We will all see that one day!
