Encanto

(IN ENGLISH) Open your eyes. (ENCHANTING MUSIC PLAYING) This is where our magic comes from? Mm-hmm. This candle holds the miracle given to our family. How did we get a miracle? Long ago, when my three babies had just been born, your Abuelo Pedro and I were forced to flee our home. And though many joined us, hoping to find a new home, we could not escape the dangers and your abuelo was lost. But in our darkest moment, we were given a miracle. The candle became a magical flame that could never go out. And it blessed us with a refuge in which to live. A place of wonder. YOUNG MIRABEL: An encanto. ABUELA: An encanto. The miracle grew. And our house, our casita itself came alive to shelter us. When my children came of age, the miracle blessed each with a magic Gift to help us. And when their children came of age… YOUNG MIRABEL: They got magic, too. ABUELA: (CHUCKLING) That’s right! And together, our family’s Gifts have made our new home a paradise. Tonight, this candle will give you your Gift, mi vida. Strengthen our community, strengthen our home. Make your family proud. Make my family proud. (FIREWORKS EXPLODING) Yes, yes, casita, we’re going! (YOUNG MIRABEL GIGGLING) What do you think my Gift will be? You are a wonder, Mirabel Madrigal. Whatever Gift awaits will be just as special as you. (UPLIFTING MUSIC PLAYS) (UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYING) (EXHALES) Make your family proud.
