Intro (Strong / Entrance)
Eeeh yaa… eeeh yaa…
Ayo, ayo, eeh…
Mwezi juu, moto chini,
Mfalme anakuja…
Verse 1
Jua linawaka juu ya ardhi,
Upepo wapita kimya kimya,
Simba anatoka porini,
Akiwa na nguvu ya dunia.
Miguu yake juu ya mchanga,
Macho yake kama moto,
Sauti yake inapovuma,
Savana yote yashtuka.
Pre-Chorus (Build / Sythm)
Ee mama, sikia mwito,
Ee baba, sikia sauti,
Mioyo yote inapiga,
Mfalme yuko karibu.
Chorus
Mfalme wa savana,
Simba wa dunia,
King of the wild, rise tonight,
Feel the fire, feel the light.
Mfalme wa savana,
Ee simba, ee simba,
When you roar into the night,
All the stars will shine so bright.
Hook (Break / Flow)
Ayaya, ayaya — simba!
Eeh mama, eeh mama — simba!
Hey, hey, the king is coming!
Hey, hey, hear the jungle calling!
Oh-oh, ayaya,
Oh-oh, eeh mama,
King of the savannah,
Let the whole world sing!
Verse 2
Mto unapita polepole,
Chini ya mwezi wa dhahabu,
Tembo wanatembea mbali,
Ndege waimba juu angani.
Kila kiumbe kinajua,
Nani anatawala hapa,
Si kwa taji la dhahabu,
Ni kwa moyo wa ujasiri.
Pre-Chorus (Build / Sythm)
Ee mama, sikia mwito,
Ee baba, sikia sauti,
Mioyo yote inapiga,
Mfalme yuko karibu.
Chorus
Mfalme wa savana,
Simba wa dunia,
King of the wild, rise tonight,
Feel the fire, feel the light.
Mfalme wa savana,
Ee simba, ee simba,
When you roar into the night,
All the stars will shine so bright.
Hook (Break / Flow)
Ayaya, ayaya — simba!
Eeh mama, eeh mama — simba!
Hey, hey, the king is coming!
Hey, hey, hear the jungle calling!
Oh-oh, ayaya,
Oh-oh, eeh mama,
King of the savannah,
Let the whole world sing!
Verse 3
Usiku ukifika pole,
Nyota ziwake juu,
Anasimama kwenye mwamba,
Akitazama mbali sana.
Anasikia sauti za zamani,
Sauti za mababu wake,
“Linda ardhi, linda watu,
Usiogope kamwe.”
Last Bridge (Build / Melodic)
Ayo… ayo…
Ardhi ya Afrika, imwite!
Ayo… ayo…
Roho ya simba, amka!
Ngoma zipige,
Moto uwake,
Sauti zipae angani.
We are one, we are free,
Under the African sky!
Mfalme amesimama…
And he will never die!
Final Chorus
Mfalme wa savana,
Simba wa dunia,
King of the wild, rise tonight,
Feel the fire, feel the light.
Mfalme wa savana,
Ee simba, ee simba,
When you roar into the night,
All the stars will shine so bright.

The king is standing proud!

King of the savannah…
Forever he will reign!
