An/ So I watched DreamWorks' The Prince of Egypt last night and got this idea. So I hope you enjoy it!
The
Prince Of
Africa
Mud, Sand, Water…
An old light brown lion with a grey mane yells as a hyena bits at him.
Straw…
"Faster" shouts another hyena
Mud and lift…
A middle age tan lion with a black mane groans as he lifts a log.
Sand and pull…Water and Rise Up…
-Straw…
"Faster" shouts a third hyena
With the sting of teeth…
- On my shoulder
"Aah!" screams a young tan lioness
With the salt of my sweat
On my brow
Elohim, God on high
Can you hear your pride cry?
Help us now
This dark hour
Deliver us
Hear our call Deliver us
Lord of all remember us
Here in this burning sand
Deliver us
There's a land you promised us
Deliver us to the Promised Land
Hyenas shouting in the distance as we zoom in to another side of Africa where packs of hyenas storms in caves and dens and take new born lion cubs.
Hiding not far away is a dark beige lioness with dark brown ear rims is holding a golden brown new born lion cub by his scruff. Nearby is a teen golden beige lion with a dark mane growing with a basket made out of sticks in his mouth. Next to the teen is a golden brown lioness cub. The four made it to a river without being seen by the hyena guards.
The dark beige lioness put the new born cub in the basket and
Watches the basket float off with her other children and she started to sing,
My son I have nothing I can give
But this chance that you may live
I pray we'll meet again
The slave lions and lionesses continue to sing,
If He will deliver us
As the basket floats out sight we get a close up with the dark beige lioness as tears falls from her amber eyes.
My last lullaby
So I'll be with you
When you dream
River, oh, river
Flow gently for me
Such precious cargo
You bear
Do you know somewhere?
He can live free
River
Deliver him there
The golden brown lioness cub ran alongside the river following the basket. She gasped once she saw where her brother ended at, Pride Rock.
The queen, Zira a pale tan lioness with a dark brown stripe going down her head was bathing in the river with her son, a dark brown lion cub with a darker brown tuff of mane on his head. When the baskets reached the queen she moved the top with her paw and gasped at what she saw. The golden lioness cub gasped also as she hid in the bushes, but when she saw that the queen was going to take him in as her own she started to sing,
Brother
You're safe now and safe may you stay
For I have a prayer just for you
Grow, baby brother
Come back someday
Come and deliver us too
Zira smiled loving at the cub.
"Mommy" cried the dark brown cub
"Come, Kovu. We will show Scar your new baby brother—"
- Mews –
"Simba."
Slaves,
Deliver us
Send a shepherd to shepherd us
And deliver us
To the Promised Land
Deliver us
To the Promised Land….
Simba's mother,
Deliver us
