A Lion King Salute Can you unleash the king in me When Simba begins his day Taking his stand all across the land He inspects the priceless view
Zazu shares his special wisdom As advisor to the king Who can say what he doesn�t know Yet he shares it fairly well
Timon such the noble type Seeming oh so sure at times He seems to have a limited life Very lazy, but he gets by
Pumbaa a most noticeable character His size and scent give way Very cautious in his nature But all too serious all the time
Nala has her special traits Quite the friend for her to be Sings with a voice like the wind Very curious and detailed in mind
Scar shows the darkest side No fear when he has the advantage But does he plan things to the end To account for every possibility
Rafiki most wise in nature Much that we can�t understand He adds that right amount of spice To shake things once in awhile
Brave Mufasa, such a great king And with wisdom, two great traits He seemed quite blameless definitely With courage to protect his son
What else can make these special Such that the high-end spirituality Marking the way in thunder Peace be to he the king! Copyright Thomas Sweet (11/24/97) A Nocturnal Dream
I am very happy To see the setting sun To close my eyes for awhile And live in another place
CHORUS: Lift your voices everyone Behold this special creation Shining toward an endless horizon Great creatures all around
I touch the peaceful earth Not like our own back home The colors brightly reflect A hue not quite like our own
Africa is where I�ll be Inside the great Pride Lands Zimmer�s music fills the sky A special place to be
To see the lion approaching Much different than the usual king It is Simba, oh yes I can see His courage brings him to me
Can this be real on earth? Can one make the fictional real? Quite so, and in a brilliant flash I see Simba passing by.

Where is the king to be found? And how we prosper under his name We raise our voices aloud And pronounce his great kingdom
He himself has mastered the ways He has trained us in his wisdom And delivered us from ourselves Even the wind changes at his command
Who but Simba has learned? And taught his life to us Mufasa taught many inspirational things And bestowed in Simba the truth
Trials of might and sorrow filled Special traits possessed by them To help them get through those days And leave us a trail in his example
Consider every word you say He has heard them all before Settling in his rightist mind To bring what he�s learned to Earth. Copyright Thomas Sweet 1997 Original HTML by Thomas Sweet HTML Modified for PLOL by Thumper The Pride Lands Online Fan's Gallery Archive |
