Circle of Life

&nbsp Circle of Life is the title of a musical number from Disney's 1994 animated film ''The Lion King. ''It is used at the very beginning of the film, when the young prince Simba is being presented to the animals at Pride Rock. The beginning of the song also contains African vocals (which are not shown in the lyrics section below). The English lyrics for Circle of Life are performed in The Lion King by Carmen Twillie. Elton John also recorded a version of the song. John's version is not used in the film, but can be heard on the soundtrack CD.

Lyrics
From the day we arrive on the planet

And blinking, step into the sun

There's more to see than can ever be seen

More to do than can ever be done

There's far too much to take in here

More to find than can ever be found

But the sun rolling high

Through the sapphire sky

Keeps great and small on the endless round

It's the Circle of Life

And it moves us all

Through despair and hope

Through faith and love

'Till we find our place

On the path unwinding

In the Circle

The Circle of Life

'It's the Circle of Life'

'And it moves us all'

'Through despair and hope'

'Through faith and love'

''Till we find our place'

'On the path unwinding'

'In the Circle'

'The Circle of Life'
