Main Title: Prologue Pt. 2 (From "Beauty and the Beast"|Score) - Alan Menken (艾伦·曼肯)

Then one night

An unexpected intruder arrived to the castle

Seeking shelter from the bitter storm

As a gift she offered the prince a single rose

Repulsed by her haggard appearance

The prince turned the woman away

But she warned him not to be deceived by appearances

For beauty is found within

When he dismissed her again

The old woman's outer appearance melted away

To reveal a beautiful enchantress

The prince begged for forgiveness

But it was too late

For she had seen that there was no love in his heart

As punishment

She transformed him into a hideous beast

And placed a powerful spell on the castle

And all who lived there

As day bled into years

The prince and his servants were forgotten by the world

For the enchantress had erased all memory of them

From the minds of the people they loved

But the rose she had offered was truly an enchanted rose

If he could learn to love another

And earn their love in return by the time

The last petal fell

The spell would be broken

If not he would be doomed

To remain a beast for all time

As the years passed

He felt into despair and lost all hope

For who could ever learn to love a beast
