Circle of Life - Elton John

The document contains lyrics and musical notation for the song "Circle of Life" from The Lion King. The song describes the circle of life, from the day animals are born and step into the sun, through finding their place on the path unwinding in the circle of life. It moves all living things through despair and hope, faith and love. The lyrics are presented in verses that are sung over the constant background singing of the phrase "ingonyama nengw' enamabaal".
