Realizing that their way of life is in danger,Nala decides she must leave her pride and her home to find help. Her family, at first reluctant, realizes that without help, the Pride Lands will meet its end and, along withRafiki, sends her off with their blessing and prays that one day she will return.

Lionesses:
Fatshe leso lea halalela (The land of our ancestors is holy)
Fatshe leso lea halalela
Nala:
Shadowland
The leaves have fallen
This shadowed land
This was our home
The river's dry
The ground has broken
So I must go
Now I must go
And where the journey may lead me
Let your prayers be my guide
I cannot stay here, my family
But I'll remember my pride
Nala and Lionesses:
I have no choice (Pride Land)
I will find my way (My land)
Lea halalela (Tear-stained, dry land)
Take this prayer (Take this with you)
What lies out there (Fatshe leso)
Lea halalela
(instrumental)
Lionesses:
And where the journey may lead you
Let this prayer be your guide
Though it may take you so far away
Always remember your pride
Fatshe leso lea halalela
Fatshe leso lea halalela
Rafiki:(chanting in Zulu)
Oh, wanka un katsee la kee yahow
Hoi ho
Lena sheekee lahow gow fa
La unka tseela kee yahow
Wanaka bo
Tseela swayoo (3x)
Tseela kee yahow wanaka bo, oh...
Nala:
Fatshe leso
Fatshe leso
Lea halalela
Fatshe leso
Lea halalela
Nala and Lionesses:
And where the journey may lead you
(And where the journey may lead me)
Let this prayer be your guide
(Let your prayers be my guide)
Though it may take you so far away
(Though it may take me so far away)
Always remember your pride
(I'll remember my pride)
And where the journey may lead you
(Ngiza buyabo, ngiza buyabo)
Let this prayer be your guide
(I will return, I will return, besobo)
Though it may take you so far away
(I will return)
Always remember your pride
(Ngiza buyabo)
Nala:
Oh, woa-oh
Ngiza buyabo
Besobo, my people
Besobo
