The Lion Sleeps Tonight Lyrics
Lala kahle [Sleep well]
In the jungle, the mighty jungle
The lion sleeps tonight
In the jungle, the mighty jungle
The lion sleeps tonight
In the jungle, the mighty jungle
The lion sleeps tonight
In the jungle, the mighty jungle
The lion sleeps tonight
Imbube
Ingonyama ifile [The lion's in peace]
Ingonyama ilele [The lion sleeps]
Thula [Hush]
Near the village, the peaceful village
The lion sleeps tonight
Near the village, the peaceful village
The lion sleeps tonight
In the jungle, the mighty jungle
The lion sleeps tonight
In the jungle, the mighty jungle
The lion sleeps tonight
Ingonyama ilele [The lion sleeps]
Hush, my darling, don't fear, my darling
The lion sleeps tonight
Hush, my darling, don't fear, my darling
The lion sleeps tonight
He, ha helelemama [He, ha helelemama]
Ohi'mbube [lion]
In the jungle, the mighty jungle

In the jungle, the mighty jungle
The lion sleeps tonight
Ixesha lifikile [Time has come]

Near the village, the peaceful village
The lion sleeps tonight
In the jungle, the mighty jungle
The lion sleeps tonight
In the jungle, the mighty jungle
The lion sleeps tonight
My little darling
Don't fear, my little darling
My little darling
Don't fear, my little darling
Ingonyama ilele [The lion sleeps]
