Lyrics[]

Choir:
Ingonyama nengw' enamabala
The royal lion wears his leopard spots
Ingonyama nengw' enamabala

Mufasa:
Night
And the spirit of life, calling
Oh, oh, iyo
Mamela Listen
Oh, oh, iyo
And a voice
With the fear of a child, asking
Oh, oh, iyo
Oh, mamela
Oh, oh, iyo

Choir:
Mamela, mamela yo
Hela
Wait
There's no mountain too great
Oh, oh, iyo
Hear these words and have faith
Oh, oh, iyo
Have faith

Choir:
Hela, hm mamela Hey, listen.
Hela, hm mamela
Hela, hm mamela

Mufasa:
They live in you
(Hela, hm mamela, hela)
They live in me
(Hela, hm mamela, hela)
They're watching over
(Hela, hm mamela, hela)
Everything we see
(Hela, hm mamela, hela)
In every creature
(Hela, hm mamela, hela)
In every star
(Hela, hm mamela, hela)
In your reflection
They live in you
(Repeat)

Choir:
Ingonyama nengw' enamabala
Ingonyama nengw' enamabala
Ingonyama nengw' enamabala
Ingonyama nengw' enamabala
