DJUKA: (spoken) You make your father stressed, and this needs to be addressed, so I think it's best (sung) if we sang the rest. YOUNG TESLA: (spoken) Huh? DJUKA: If you're feeling sad or bad or even if you're glad, you'll wish that you had listened to your dad. MILUTIN: (spoken) Right. (sung) When my mind is reeling and my prayers for peace and healing don’t help me when I’m dealing with all that I am feeling. DJUKA: Music gets your feelings out and takes away your doubts, so you should sing to us what this is all about. YOUNG TESLA: (spoken) How do you make it rhyme? DJUKA: It just happens. Now you try! YOUNG TESLA: Don’t be furious; I’m only curious. I don’t want to do what you do. MILUTIN: I bring people to the Lord's light. YOUNG TESLA: I only went to church to be polite. MILUTIN: The problems of the world need only prayer, even when it might seem so unfair. YOUNG TESLA: I think God has brought me here to become an engineer! MILUTIN: There are things in this world we can't see! YOUNG TESLA: For once just put your faith in me. MILUTIN: You don't know what you want. YOUNG TESLA: I know what I don't. MILUTIN: When you join with the church, you'll find joy. YOUNG TESLA: No, I know I won't. MILUTIN: You saw us lose your brother, so we all think that you should choose another thing to do- DJUKA: Do you know if this is just a passing phase? It better just last a few days. MILUTIN: When your dreams go up in smoke, you’ll wake up and discover that you're broke. DJUKA: Boys should not forsake their fathers. YOUNG TESLA: You won’t break me, so don’t bother me. DJUKA: MILUTIN: I hope it’s not a passing phase; But when your dreams go up in smoke, It better just last a few days. you’ll wake up and discover that you're broke. MILUTIN: Since you will not be swayed, I feel betrayed. Have you no respect for this life that we've made? DJUKA: We love you and we want you to succeed so trust us that we know what you need. YOUNG TESLA: It might not seem right to you, but this dream is well thought-through. You don't have to understand. All I need's a helping hand... Sorry if I may have been too blunt, but now we all know what I want- MILUTIN: I wish I knew why you were sick. YOUNG TESLA: (sung) There are things in this world we can't see. MILUTIN: (spoken) What will make you get better? YOUNG TESLA: Perhaps... if you... let me study engineering? DJUKA: (sung) There is only one way, don’t you see? MILUTIN: (sighs) Fine. But only if he goes to… (sung) The finest university.
