Aslan, on the other hand, actually returns from the grave (because he’s Jesus). To be fair, Mufasa only comes back as a ghost. Take three sips… Whenever something drastically unoriginal but wonderful happens, such as a Lion returning from beyond the grave. These sips will gently muddle your brain and make you more accepting of these oddly misinformed moments… Ingonyama Ingonyama nengw’ enamabala = It’s a lion and a tigerĮr, “it’s a lion and a tiger”, is it? This is AFRICA! Any tiger knocking about on these plains is clearly a very lost and sad individual, no doubt soon to fall victim to that vicious circle of life we keep hearing about. Sithi uhhmm ingonyama = Oh yes, it’s a lion Nants ingonyama bagithi baba = There comes a lion Whenever a translation of The Circle Of Life chant makes you smirk.

Whenever Mufasa’s voice sense shivers of delight shivering down your spine We could stand to learn a few things from the giraffe in particular so gracious, so tall, so very very noble. Why?
