It was so serious that immediately I heard “Nants Igonyama bagithi baba sithi uhmm igonyama,, siyo nqoba.”
South Africa starts with the song “Circle of Life” in the lion king movie.
I neglected whatever I was doing to sing along and watch only the beginning part until the song was over, then I went back to work if it was of course important and tried to rush my work in other to meet up before the other songs began playing.

It's okay to say, that I know almost all the complete lyrics of songs in the cartoon, accompanied by the countless times I've watched it, I guess that should be expected.
So if we should settle on my most loveable and known lyrics that would be “Circle of Life” and “He Lives in You” Both songs are the starters on the two seasons of The Lion King, and for this reason, I love it pretty much because of how well it describes nature. Water, earth, humans, plants.. supernaturals are all unseen reflections that interpret the lyrics.
Back then as a child, I just loved it for its beautiful melody but now am one with both songs because of the knowledge that follows, and yes yes! A million times yes!!! The Lion King is still one of the few cartoons I would sit back to watch again and again and still yet not get tired.
