Fatshe leso lea halalela
Fatshe leso lea halalela
[NALA]
Shadowland
The leaves have fallen
This shadowed land
This was our home
The river's dry
The ground has broken
So I must go
Now I must go
And where the journey may lead me
Let your prayers be my guide
I cannot stay here, my family
But I'll remember my pride
[LIONESSES]
And where the journey may lead you
Let this prayer be your guide
Though it may take you so far away
Always remember your pride
(RAFIKI prays over NALA)
[ALL]
Fatshe leso lea halalela
Fatshe leso lea halalela
[NALA]
Oh, ngiza buya bo
Beso bo, my people
Beso bo
