Esmeralda, or La Esmeralda (French: Esméralda), born Agnes, is a fictional character in Victor Hugo's 1831 novel The Hunchback of Notre-Dame (or Notre Dame de Paris). She is a French Gypsy girl (near the end of the book, it is revealed that her biological mother was a French woman). She constantly attracts men with her seductive dances, and is rarely seen without her clever goat Djali. She is around 16 years old.
Esmeralda's birth-name was Agnes. She is the illegitimate daughter of Paquette Guybertaut, nicknamed 'la Chantefleurie', an orphaned minstrel's daughter who lives in Rheims. Paquette has become a prostitute after being seduced by a young nobleman, and lives a miserable life in poverty and loneliness. Agnes's birth makes Paquette happy once more, and she lavishes attention and care upon her adored child: even the neighbours begin to forgive Paquette for her past behaviour when they watch the pair. Tragedy strikes, however, when Gypsies kidnap the young baby, leaving a hideously deformed child (the infant Quasimodo) in place. The townsfolk come to the conclusion that the Gypsies have cannibalised baby Agnes; the mother flees Reims in despair, and the Gypsy child is exorcised and sent to Paris, to be left on the foundling bed at Notre-Dame.

Plot: In this adaptation of the Thomas Mann novel, avant-garde composer Gustave Aschenbach (loosely based on Gustav Mahler) travels to a Venetian seaside resort in search of repose after a period of artistic and personal stress. But he finds no peace there, for he soon develops a troubling attraction to an adolescent boy, Tadzio, on vacation with his family. The boy embodies an ideal of beauty that Aschenbach has long sought and he becomes infatuated. However, the onset of a deadly pestilence threatens them both physically and represents the corruption that compromises and threatens all ideals.

Genres: Musical,l cielo fa il soffitto, il mare invece il letto
Foto di quel sogno che ti avevo detto
E amore
Stringere il cuscino e finger di baciarti
Furto al destino ed ai suoi ricatti
Negando il peggio in me
Cercando il meglio in me
È così, se ci penso è così
Sono perso in questa notte
Che non va più via
Tra smeraldo e oceano
Ti guardo ancora
Una monetina in aria e
Da due ore vivo insieme a te
Suona a festa il vento ad est
La tempesta è stanca
E il sole di smeraldo ci guarda ancora
Un'altra monetina in aria e
Due giorni che già vivo insieme a te
Mare calmo verso est
E tempesta dentro me
Vivere insieme mi fa disperato
Praticamente uguale però più distratto
E poi
Fare le valigie e nella stessa notte
Darti le risposte ma sbagliarle tutte
E non dico mai di noi
Per non sbagliare mai
Ma è così, se ci penso è così
Sono immerso in questa notte
Che non va più via
Tra smeraldo e oceano
Ti guardo ancora
Una monetina in aria e
Da due ore vivo insieme a te
Suona a festa il vento ad est
La tempesta è stanca
E il sole di smeraldo ci guarda ancora
Un'altra monetina in aria e
Due giorni che già vivo insieme a te
Mare calmo verso est
E tempesta dentro me
Mare calmo verso est
E tempesta dentro
E dentro
