Несмотря на сказанное выше, музыка к "Огням большого города" является истинно авторской. Чаплин напевал или наигрывал свои мелодии на фортепиано, подробно объясняя, что конкретно он хотел бы услышать от оркестра. И только после этого профессионалы помогали ему написать саму партитуру.

- Circus - Swing little girl
Swing little girl
Swing high to the sky
And don’t ever look
At the ground
If you’re looking for rainbows
Look up to the sky
You’ll never find rainbows
- Great Dictator
I’m sorry, but I don’t want to be an emperor. That’s not my business. I don’t want to rule or conquer anyone. I should like to help everyone - if possible - Jew, Gentile - black man - white. We all want to help one another. Human beings are like that. We want to live by each other’s happiness - not by each other’s misery. We don’t want to hate and despise one another. In this world there is room for everyone. And the good earth is rich and can provide for everyone. The way of life can be free and beautiful, but we have lost the way.
Greed has poisoned men’s souls, has barricaded the world with hate, has goose-stepped us into misery and bloodshed. We have developed speed, but we have shut ourselves in. Machinery that gives abundance has left us in want. Our knowledge has made us cynical. Our cleverness, hard and unkind. We think too much and feel too little. More than machinery we need humanity. More than cleverness we need kindness and gentleness. Without these qualities, life will be violent and all will be lost....
The aeroplane and the radio have brought us closer together. The very nature of these inventions cries out for the goodness in men - cries out for universal brotherhood - for the unity of us all. Even now my voice is reaching millions throughout the world - millions of despairing men, women, and little children - victims of a system that makes men torture and imprison innocent people.
To those who can hear me, I say - do not despair. The misery that is now upon us is but the passing of greed - the bitterness of men who fear the way of human progress. The hate of men will pass, and dictators die, and the power they took from the people will return to the people. And so long as men die, liberty will never perish. .....
- Limelight - Sardine song
When I was three, my nurse told me,
About reincarnation,
And ever since, I’ve been convinced,
Thrilled with anticipation,
That when I leave this earth,
It makes my heart feel warm,
To know that I’ll return,
In some other form,
- Limelight - Spring song
Birds are calling.
Skunks are crawling.
Wagging their tails for love!
Spring is here.
Whales are churning.
Worms are squirming.
Wagging their tails for love!
What is this thing
- Smile
Smile, though your heart is aching
Smile, even though it's breaking
When there are clouds in the sky
You'll get by...
If you smile
With your fear and sorrow
Smile and maybe tomorrow

- The Great Dictator
Простите, но я не хочу быть императором, это не моя цель. Я не хочу никем править и никого завоёвывать, я хочу всем помогать: евреям, обездоленным, чёрным и белым.
Мы созданы, чтобы помогать друг-другу, это цель каждого человека. Мы должны радоваться человеческому счастью, а не наживаться на страдании. Мы не должны ненавидеть друг-друга, в этом мире найдётся место для каждого, наша Земля необъятна, она накормит каждого. Мы можем жить свободно и счастливо, но забыли как это делается. Человеческие души отравлены жадностью, мир полон ненависти, которая толкает нас на кровавый путь!...
...Мы нуждаемся не в открытиях, а в простой человечности, не в развитом уме, но в доброте и чуткости, без которых наша жизнь превратится в жестокую бессмысленную трату времени.
Нас сблизили самолёты и радио, которые должны стать средствами вселенской дружбы и пробуждать в нас доброту. Сейчас нас слышит весь мир, миллионы отчаявшихся мужчин, женщин и детей ставших жертвами системы, которая превращает человеческую жизнь в пытку и лишает невинных свободы.

We all want to live by each other's happiness, not by each other's misery. We don't want to hate and despise one another. In this world there is room for everyone and the earth is rich and can provide for everyone.
The way of life can be free and beautiful.
But we have lost the way.

To those who can hear me, I say - do not despair. The misery that is now upon us is but the passing of greed - the bitterness of men who fear the way of human progress. The hate of men will pass, and dictators die, and the power they took from the people will return to the people. And so long as men die, liberty will never perish... Don’t give yourselves to these unnatural men - machine men with machine minds and machine hearts! You are not machines! You are not cattle!.. You are men! You, the people, have the power to make this life free and beautiful, to make this life a wonderful adventure... Let us use that power - let us all unite.
