{The Circle of life ground forms in the BS's and holds its
pattern for eight bars. It is a non chordal BS part. The
progressions are in the medium ranges of the strings.
Various pans and camera views of African animals. All
moving. Coinciding with the FS pickup in the eighth bar,
we first view the Giraffes, panning to a long shot of all
the animals in their procession}
[The Circle of life text]
FS: From the day we arrive on the planet
And blinking, step into the sun
There's more to see than can ever be seen
More to do than can ever be done
{Camera is panning and jumping to elephants, zebras, ants,
birds, storks, etc, etc ...}
There's far too much to take in here
More to find than can ever be found

But the sun rolling high
Through the sapphire sky
Keeps great and small on the endless round
{when the "The Circle of Life" is mentioned the long
distance pan centers on Pride rock where all the animals
are gathering. Mufasa is on Pride rock. Long camera arc
to Mufasa and Zazu.}
It's the Circle of Life
And it moves us all
Through despair and hope
Through faith and love
{Appearance of Rafiki, the baboon}
'Till we find our place
On the path unwinding
