Nants ingonyama bagithi Baba

Ingonyama

Nants ingonyama bagithi Baba

Sithi uhhmm ingonyama

Ingonyama

Ingonyama

Ingonyama nengw' enamabala

Ingonyama nengw' enamabala

Ingonyama nengw' enamabala

Ingonyama nengw' enamabala

Ingonyama nengw' enamabala

Ingonyama nengw' enamabala (Se to kwa)

Ingonyama nengw' enamabala (Asana)

Ingonyama nengw' enamabala (Se to kwa)

Ingonyama nengw' enamabala (Asana)

Ingonyama nengw' enamabala (repeats throughout verse)

From the day we arrive on the planet

And blinking, step into the sun

There's more to see than can ever be seen

More to do than can ever be done

There's far too much to take in here

More to find than can ever be found

But the sun rolling high

Through the sapphire sky

Keeps great and small on the endless round

It's the Circle of Life

And it moves us all

Through despair and hope

Through faith and love

Till we find our place

On the path unwinding

In the Circle

The Circle of Life

Ingonyama nengw' enamabala

Ingonyama nengw' enamabala

Ingonyama nengw' enamabala

Ingonyama nengw' enamabala

Ingonyama nengw' enamabala

Ingonyama nengw' enamabala

Ingonyama nengw' enamabala

Ingonyama nengw' enamabala

It's the Circle of Life

And it moves us all

Through despair and hope

Through faith and love

Till we find our place

On the path unwinding

In the Circle

The Circle of Life

Till we find our place

On the path unwinding

In the Circle

The Circle of Life

Circle of

Life

(Ingonyama negwenamabala continues)

**Rafiki:**

From the day we arrive on this planet

And blinking, step into the sun

There's more to see than can ever be seen

More to do than can ever be done

Hmm, there's far too much, to take in here

More to find, than can ever be found

But the sun rolling high

Through the sapphire sky

Keeps great and small, on the endless round

It's the circle of life!

(Kalaliko bheki akale!)

And it moves us all

Through despair and hope

Through faith and love

Till we find our place

On the path unwinding

In the circle

The circle of life

(Ingonyama negwenamabala)

(improvisation by antelope)

It's the circle of life!

(Kalaliko bheki akale!)

And it moves us all

Through despair and hope

Through faith and love

Till we find our place!

On the path unwinding

In the circle!

The circle of life

(loud drumbeat)

Umm hmm

Oh ho

Oh ho

Oh ho

Oh ho

From the day we arrive on the planet

And blinking step into the sun

There's more to be seen than can ever be seen

More to do than can ever be done

Some say, eat or be eaten

Some say, live and let live

But, all are agreed as they join the stampede

You should never take more than you give

In the circle of life

It's the wheel of fortune

It's the leap by faith

It's the band of hope

Till, we find our place

On the path unwinding

In the circle

The circle of life

Some of us fall by the wayside

And some of us soar to the stars

And some of us sail through our troubles

And some have to live with the scars

There's far too much to take in here

More to find than can ever be found

But the sun rollin' high

Through the sapphire sky

Keeps the great and small on the endless round

In the circle of life

It's the wheel of fortune

It's the leap by faith

It's the band of hope

Till, we find our place

On the path unwinding, yea

In the circle

The circle of life

(Chorus repeats)

On the path unwinding, yea

In the circle

The circle of life
