All language subtitles for Thief-of-Damascus-1952 (1)

[Music]

[Applause]

for hundreds of years ancient Persia was

a battleground powerful armies led by

men desirous of conquering the world

tried to gain control of its rich cities

in 634 ad it was collied the iron man

whose forces swept across the land and

only the walls of Damascus stood between

him and total victory

[Music]

Khalid how much longer you think this

can go on the siege Fred general and are

you worried too much

the seeds will go on until the Mascis is

taken you've tried your tactics for 70

days and the city is no closer to

falling than it was the first day we

attacked you've questioned my judgment

my questions are useless slaughter of

men the frontal attack on the south gate

has failed repeatedly it's the weakest

point in the war strong enough try my

plan divide our forces send one regiment

to the north gate the other to the south

gate certain router may think we have

received reinforcements the trick may

work and if you want anything left after

masters I want nothing left

Sultan Radha must be taught a lesson his

city will be sacked as no other city has

ever been sacked the head of every

able-bodied men will adorn its precious

walls every woman shall become a slave I

want nothing of of tricks general and

are then fight without me Khalid I'm a

general not a butcher just a moment I

could have your head for this but you

rather have Damascus

yes I'd rather have Damascus in the

morning try your plan but if you fail

for a conqueror Khalid you worry too

much

[Music]

if time could but stand still forever

and if only the wisdom of the ages could

turn the animals of war such as car lead

into men again but these are dreams

Alibaba

and dreams will not defeat our enemy our

food and water never a weak to perhaps

although watches over all what will be

will be we know now the reason for the

sudden silence Khalid has been joined by

new divisions and is massing them to

attack from the other side of the city

it will probably come at dawn if he has

enough troops to lay siege to the city

from two sides we're doomed if the men

will continue to fight for me there will

be deep gratitude in my heart if they

wish to surrender and save their lives

I shall not blame them I will hold no

malice they'll fight sir but what if the

prince is safer your excellency she

refuses to leave the city without me

he'll go hard with the women may the

hard shell of colleagues heart greed a

pearl of mercy

[Music]

the world with you my dear

[Music]

this concerns you too major

[Music]

the city will fall at any hour but there

may still be time for you to escape and

leave everything and everyone we love

Tijeras I might talked about stayin

habeo what do you know this Abdul and

our colleagues general he is clever then

you don't know the important things he

is handsome gallant and he's never been

known to be indifferent to a beautiful

woman how do you know so much about this

man slave dealers have told me oh and AH

has a discerning eye and they feel so

beautiful

Scheherazade has made have been gracious

to make her point just what are you

suggesting then his Excellency be

indisposed and Xavier and I go to talk

peace terms with Abu and are ridiculous

I would not subject the princess to sir

not so ridiculous your excellency have

we not often learned to trust the

judgment if she how does that father

what have we to lose if we can save our

city in our people if anything should

happen to my daughter what happened to

me to my master may I'll watch over you

both then send up a flag of truce

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

look at salomi how happy she is

so homie really let yourself go when

she's happy well tell her to stop crying

those thugs will be back hundreds of

them if I only had my limp I'll make

them all disappear like that

I laugh if you mention that laugh again

I'm gonna take you by the seat of the

pants and throw you over that wall and

you'll disappear like unbelieving dark

the leg was stolen from me friend

I don't believe there ever was such a

thing as a magic plant

they asking for truce stop the attack

[Music]

well what'd you find out Damascus has

surrendered sir surrender general and

ours arranging a peace treaty now so and

I thinks he's big enough to make a

treaty without my approval they're going

to open the North gates of the city for

us sir I want the men mounted and ready

to ride as soon as possible

yes sir princess they fear and she

hurries out of the Sultan's Court and

died I'm Wanda bids you welcome and what

a lavish welcome you have more food here

not all the time Damascus yes more food

more men moms one of everything except

one thing beauty and now since you are

here princess Sofia and you lady

Shahrazad flattery flows like wine

you're even better than your reputation

you too have a reputation you're the one

who told a different story every night

for 1,001 nights don't you ever keep

your lovely mouth closed

I won't even open it to breathe

excellent

Scheherazade I will discuss peace terms

with the general you're very young for

such an important mission I assure you

I'm quite capable of representing my

people your people are fortunate in our

if you've been both back with me how am

I supposed to eat with my mouth shut

since you are easily able to talk

without thinking eating without opening

your mouth should be equally easy

then it is decided the gates of your

city should open to my army and your

father is to pay in gold whatever is

demanded by carried in return we will

not destroy your city no harm your

people but Kali Chandru most generous as

any man ever been able to refuse what

you asked what she asks it's what the

men ask

I have no Kingdom Norwich has no title

to lay at your feet princes I shall be

content merely to be in the same city

with you they said you were gallant was

it OMA who said if you first you don't

succeed try try again

has anyone ever suggested silencing this

woman permanently many times but if she

didn't like you she wouldn't be trying

to show her wit mindful of your

reputation with the ladies

we felt that words were our only weapon

of defense what happens to such a weapon

if her lips are sealed with a kiss what

no answer then if you are ready princess

I'm sorry your father was ill but even

if he had not sent such charming n boys

I would have wanted to spare the people

of Damascus

[Music]

Colleen is coming please continue on to

your father and tell him the news I'll

have many things to discuss with Colleen

my father shall certainly be the opinion

that you are a man of honor and perhaps

I shall have the good fortune to hear

your opinion this evening

[Music]

they're Lafitte's

[Music]

you know search every house why not if I

hold my lip I can get him more golden if

he conquered every city in Persia I can

give you big ships and juries and

[Music]

you fucked infidels jackasses very good

Simba that's exactly what yeah that way

you'll never get lost

[Music]

see she's over a lead I give you the

maskers give me Damascus and I'm

conquered city a city of surrenders on

your terms not on mine no one makes

treaties but Kali

City the Kali takes remains intact to

become an enemy it's his back

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

[Music]

cut of the same cloth there are some who

say that and I did defy Kohli and that

Khalid ordered his arrest I don't know

what to believe a trick just as undoes

false treaty was a trick to open the

city gates history will knock them both

as treacherous many hoped all they

bother has escaped at least there's

still a chance if we can so this is the

mighty Radha who held his city for

seventy days against Colleen huh a

vanquished sovereign my lord and the

lovely maiden my daughter the princess

Sofia and the lady Scheherazade seem

strange that one so so ordinary should

have such remarkable daughter it's well

that she is through all the spoils of

your city the princess is indeed a prize

the vultures will pluck your eyes before

you will find me a reward colleague

Callie takes what he wants my dear

whether it be a famous city or a

princess but because of your high

position I'll grant you a singular honor

you will become Colleen's Queen Khalid

let her go I plead with Wyatt you will

rot in a dungeon take him out of here

pull that card out you're blocking the

streets of the palace

[Music]

there he goes Eddie for the palace

[Music]

it would be the best for both of us if

you remain quiet so this is the

Honorable General Lander who wins his

battles by deceiving women who believe

this attack was deliberate on my part

you want me to swallow more of your lies

will sit on both

[Music]

there's an explanation for this be good

enough to listen winces I heard the

piccoli doesn't usually offer

explanations for his cruelty there is

that too much for even your conscience I

do in country understand that I'm hiding

from elite soldiers and your father's I

wouldn't dream

do you want to hurt you or your people

before I don't want to hurt you now

[Music]

your friends better be who are you what

do you want we saw what happened between

you and Kelly

jared is a son of a pig and you are a

man of all around the thanks we want to

help you if you help me you'll be in as

much trouble as I earn Khalid will leave

no stone unturned to find me don't worry

about that we will not hide under any

stone I could get to the mountains

reckon we get horses

there's an old miser who's a seller of

horses and mules and I have long wished

to live constriction of the stomach by

stealing his best horses but we must

wait until night we come with here oh I

know a lot of other alleys even better

than this one yes he's an old Larry all

right friends then lead on oh wait I

must consult salomi said Oh me yes so

know me do you feel that we are making

[Music]

[Music]

they're still looking for you

how it be blessed that the lock on this

table wasn't stronger we have no Seth

unless other later on all abou blessing

our graves hurry

[Music]

helped cheese crackers

[Music]

my best horses

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

all night long I tossed about

I couldn't sleep thinking about the

Hansen general I ever think about him

that would be to devise new tortures to

repay him

perhaps you're wrong where is he maybe

the stories are true and he is hiding

from Khalid

perhaps he has even been executed

the man does not tell the truth the

older you get the less you condemn

handsome men he does it surveying early

my dear princess it seems that the

people of your fair city do not

appreciate the fact that I've liberated

them from the oppressive yoke of your

father the oppressive yoke of my King

Khalid is leading up to something you

must admit that my generosity is

confined you to the harem not one of

your own drafty dungeons my father is in

a dungeon ah but he is defeated now a

woman is never defeated she yeah she

merely changed his owners I am NOT a

slave to be bought or sold please

princess the king is coming to the meat

of this most entertaining discussion as

I started to say I find the shell of a

city dismal when it should be

celebrating therefore I shall give the

people a reason for celebration oh you

should leave Damascus so soon quiet

wench

I said nothing to offend then say

nothing you will become my queen

tomorrow and you see that she's probably

a tired to dance for me princess

oh sure Harrison what am I to do

it's a problem especially since Kelly

can put your father under the headsman's

ax I wear mourn this to take a bath I

refuse to wear it you'll wear it or your

father won't even be able to wear a

turban can't you think of something

[Music]

who lives in these parts nothing but

animals which we have haunted many times

and there's a beautiful morning and I

refuse to worry about anything for me

it's too quiet I'd feel better with a

little noise haha

you see a miracle I asked for noise and

somebody plays a signal on a trumpet a

signal take cover

[Music]

[Music]

sign them up

[Music]

so no one lives in these parts but

animals

[Music]

Open Sesame

[Music]

praise be to Allah

blow me down amazing an excellent

fortress much of these people needed

maybe they heard that you ain't Cali

we're coming

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

close Sesame

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

neither I'm not gonna kill me

Alabama will see you get out get out

[Music]

and this is an improbable story you tell

me general and our Alibaba yet the world

is filled with in probabilities and we

must live with them the Conqueror does

not run to hide his glory in the shadows

of obscurity I believe what you have

told me thank you

it's all right

all I want is to make up to your peoples

but was done to them by Khalid I offer

my life in your service service we are

broken scattered a band of fugitives

these oils will help

we have little death but the will to

regain our homes you have something more

there is a maker of metal objects in the

marketplace range amel but do you know

of him while escaping from colleagues

men

I took a saw that was hanging outside

his shop never have I wielded such

ablated then Jim al is the one man who

could have saved Damascus and didn't why

he is the create of Damascus steel a

steel so strong that weapons made of it

could have crushed Colleen's forces

overnight

yes but this philosopher who theorizes

that the way to world peace is to bow to

those who want war refuse to give us his

formula refuse to make weapons of his

precious steel for our army for those of

us may find ways to peace it takes

armies to keep it but things have

changed in Damascus Benjamin may be

ready to listen to reason now and who is

to contact him and how is he to make

weapons and the colleagues very nose

Khalid snores is always up in the air he

can't see what is happening on the

ground

perhaps if I would talk to Benjamin you

but if what you say is true Khalid will

have a price on your head I'll take that

chance desperate people take desperate

chances general lender then it is agreed

I believe for Damascus tomorrow but to

friend Sinbad and Aladdin will come with

me

there is one thing this without it there

would be less chance that I would be

recognized you wish Ababa

I wish the services on a young lady who

stands bound to a stake only a few yards

from here the girl we caught in the

hills I don't know how she got here but

she's an old friend and is good at

barbering is Delilah herself she shall

be freed as well your two companions oh

wait here I'll send the girl to you

ah just right you know for a good shave

the olive oil must be like a lover

neither too warm not too cold and the

blade is sharp is your remarks it'll

take more than sarcasm to keep me at

arm's length under right now I'm

supposed to be shaved it's all part of

the process but kiss can soften a man's

heart you'd certainly soften his beard

you haven't changed

do you think I would have followed you

across half of Persia and almost got

yourself killed a very wise it is said

the past promises the future without you

there is no future

[Music]

we've talked much of this princess they

fear they die I have no right to love

the daughter of a sudden as well as you

know but the princess's colleagues

prisoner it will be his to do with as he

wishes you are jealous

[Music]

the general and I are old friends very

old friends if I had your youth I too

would cultivate such friendships and my

apologies if I had your wisdom I would

know enough to stay away from such

friendships I take this ring it will

identify you to our friends thank you

and the words

Open Sesame will move the rock oh yes

the my key door to the cave Robin if any

of us out of the magic words Open Sesame

this is indeed an age of miracles good

night Jenna

sleep well my son

[Music]

what business of you in Damascus we are

merchants sir we will bring our wares to

the marketplace your merchandise Oh

cloth woven with gold linen of the

finest flax blankets of the purest world

now look sir isn't this a piece of cloth

your wife would cherish for all her days

I have no wife but perhaps we could sell

you one perhaps 20 lashes would teach

you to have more respect pig he meant he

meant no offense noble sir

here take this cloth as a gift to show

that our intentions are only off the

best well very well see that I have no

more trouble you a trouble trouble is

the last thing we want sir very well

these Steelers poppers ungrateful me

we take your horses feed them bathe them

treat them like babies until they are

bigger and better than ever before and

you go squealing your fool head off

about rubbers thieves you bleep like a

stuck pig

no look are those your horses well yes

of course they're my horses yeah you see

if you brought them back to you did we

not now does that make us robbers

thieves or philanthropists of the

highest order

is that not entitled my friends and I to

sit on the first step of our strong well

I I won't argue I'll take your horses

and go my friend and offer praise to

heavens that we are such understanding

men I will do it this very night but

what will we do for transportation out

of the city

simple we steal the horses again

hello we wish to see the proprietor of

this shop put a coin on the table and

select what you weigh trusting soul

isn't he

mental now I am he they must talk to you

it is most important you interrupt my

life work what is it

well what is it

please follow me

and why does my old friend Alibaba send

you to me I'm Jenna Landau the oppressor

who has become the oppressed it's my own

choice Benjamin recognize this you're

the one who stole it from my shot it

saved my life many of these could have

saved the Mascis so now I know why you

are here you want me to make weapons oil

I didn't come here to plead with you

Benjamin the lives of your friends your

people are at stake you will make the

weapons you are an intelligent general

in that instead of pleading with me you

tell me what to do

time is short what is your answer where

will you get money enough to purchase

materials for the weapons I think it

only fitting that Khalid should finance

such a venture

Kalin do you think you will consider it

a wise investment we won't ask his

opinion will be gentlemen the last

source of treasures Khalid has taken

from other conquered cities must be in

the palace walls now my two friends

Aladdin and Sinbad will remain here or

general traveling alone in the palace I

have a better chance of not being

recognized but it grows dark have you

learned the location of the walls from

princess Sofia princess Sofia but it is

impossible why tonight she is marrying

Khalid it isn't true it is true may

Allah forgive her for taking the hand of

the enemy just the same before this day

is over you'll have all the money you

need to make the weapons I'm not a man

but I think I get Khalid general idea

the wedding is only a matter of hours

and still you thought of nothing to help

we still have those hours is there no

way to get a messenger out of the palace

dolly Baba the palace is like a prison

I wonder how I'd look in that

[Music]

the princess is making herself ready for

her dad's great fun that's good

did you get that costume it's the

princess great one she was afraid that

so much clock wouldn't Peter there so

much I should have come to the masque as

long before this sit down when sit down

that custom can do sometimes can be your

undoing

Canaries wedding Chinese women I'll bake

these cakes and drinking wine Oh his

hair is prayer than it looks

golly princess and dances with the grace

of a fool

Seven Veils but little blossom into the

time it's time for the wedding ceremony

hate yourself more for what you did we
