312. The Lion King


This film soothes me no matter how I feel.

Nants ingonyama bagithi Baba [Here comes a lion, Father]
Sithi uhm ingonyama [Oh yes, it's a lion]
Nants ingonyama bagithi baba Sithi uhhmm ingonyama Ingonyama Siyo Nqoba [We're going to conquer]
Ingonyama Ingonyama nengw' enamabala [A lion and a leopard come to this open place]
[Chant repeats]

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




I love this film. When the film came out in '94, I had the simba soft toy. It had weighted paws and was so cute. Think my Auntie Helen bought me it.

In 2008 I went to London and saw the musical at the Lyceum Theatre. It was the most stunning thing I had ever seen and I will never forget that experience. I'd never been to London before, I loved it.
Hoping to go again soon, with Anthony this time! He wants to take me to the restaurant he ate at (many times) when he was down there working. Hmm yum!


Remember who you are....





Love it xxx
