The Lion King 2: Simba's Pride Page #3

- I thought we could be...

- Friends?

You thought you'd get to the daughter

and Simba would welcome you

with open arms?

What an idea!

What an idea.

You brilliant child.

I'm so proud of you.

You have the same conniving mind

that made Scar so powerful.

Bah! Chosen One...

I now see the path

to our glorious return to power.

- But I don't want...

- Hush!

Hush, my little one.

You must be exhausted.

Sleep, my little Kovu

Let your dreams take wing

One day when you're big and strong

You will be a king

- Good night.

- Good night, my little prince.

Tomorrow your training intensifies.

I've been exiled, persecuted,

Left alone with no defence

When I think of what that brute did,

I get a little tense

But I dream a dream so pretty

That I don't feel so depressed

Cos it soothes my inner kitty

And it helps me get some rest

The sound of Simba's dying gasp

His daughter squealing in my grasp

His lioness's mournful cry

That's my lullaby

Now the past I've tried forgetting

And my foes I could forgive

Trouble is I know it's petty

But I hate to let them live

So you found yourself somebody

who'll chase Simba up a tree

Oh, the battle may be bloody

But that kind of works for me

The melody of angry growls

A counterpoint of painful howls

A symphony of death, oh my...

That's my lullaby

Scar is gone, but Zira's still around

To love this little lad

Till he learns to be a killer

With a lust for being bad

Sleep, you little termite.

I mean, precious little thing

One day when you're big and strong

You will be a king

The pounding of the drums of war

The thrill of Kovu's mighty roar

- The joy of vengeance

- Testify

- I can hear the cheering

- Kovu, what a guy

Payback time is nearing

And then our flag will fly

Against a blood-red sky

That's my lullaby

Oh, Mufasa,

every day Kiara grows more beautiful,

into a queen that will some day

make us all very proud.

But this cub Kovu grows stronger

and Zira fills his heart with hate.

I'm very worried, Mufasa.

Things are not going well, no.

Mm? You have a plan?

What?

Kovu. Kiara. Together?

This is the plan?

Are you crazy?

This will never work.

Oh, Mufasa, you've been up there

too long. Your head is in the clouds.

OK, OK, OK, OK. All right, OK!

I don't think this is going to work,

but I trust you.

I just hope you know what you are doing.

You are ready.

Nice. Very nice.

You have the same blackness in your soul

that Scar had. What is your destiny?

I will avenge Scar.

- Take his place in the Pridelands.

- Yes. What have I taught you?

Simba is the enemy.

And what must you do?

I must kill him.

You must be so proud, Nala.

This is Kiara's first hunt.

There she is.
