and smell, all at the same time.

I can do that.

Look, listen, smell.

Try to feel the forest around you.

I don't feel anything.

- Does playing in the meadow.

- How do you know?

I feel it in my hooves.

If there was danger, they'd know

to stomp, and I'd run to them.

- But wouldn't you be scared?

- Perhaps, but I would still run to them.

A prince may be afraid, but he can't

let fear stop him from acting.

Wow. You know everything.

Not everything.

Well, the forest is waiting.

Are you coming?

Sure!

- Big brother!

- Big brother!

Oh, for crying out loud!

Feel the forest. Feel the forest.

- Feel the forest.

- Bambi!

Feel the...

Felt it.

Why does winter

always make you wait

For a glimpse of sun?

Takes a simple clue or leap of faith

To know the time will come

When long, cold nights

Fade into memory

looking at the morning light

And we will be together

Leaving our cares behind forever

At the first sign of spring

The heat of the sun

will shine right through

And never a moment comes too soon

As the first sign of spring

Air is getting warmer by the day

As the thaw begins

So put a corner on this page

The leaves are green again

And cloudy skies

I hear it, I hear it!

Are lifting away

right in front of our very eyes

And we will be together

At the first sign of spring

When will I get my antlers?

Won't be long now

if you're anything like I was.

Am I?

Well, only one way to find out.

Wow!

At the first sign of spring

A new season's begun

For a father and son

And everything grows a little faster

And every moment stretches longer

And it will only get much stronger

We will be together

Leaving our cares behind forever

At the first sign of spring

The heat of the sun

will shine right through

Never a moment comes too soon

As the first sign of spring

At the first sign of spring

At the first sign of spring

Bambi, time to go to sleep.

But I can't sleep. I'm wide awake.

Try.

Okay, I'll try.

It was funny

when you chased that cricket,

then there was one more,

then one more.

Yes, yes.

Now, get some sleep.

Flower sleeps all winter.

Why do we sleep?

Everything must get rest.

Some at night, some during the day.

Some not at all.

Mother's resting now, isn't she?

Oh, I forgot.

A prince leaves the past

in the past, right?

That's enough questions for today.

Now, please get some sleep.

Okay.

Good night.

Come on, sleepyhead.

Remind me never to let you

eat blossoms before bedtime.

Wait. I hear trouble.

What? What?

Hornet nest, antler-high.

Very good.

- Wait! Now I see trouble.

- Where? Where?

Rival stag, dead ahead.

He's pretty small.

Shouldn't be any trouble.

Oh, yeah? I can be plenty of trouble.

- No, not you.

- Yes, me.

Now you've had it.

Gotcha!

Now who's got who?

- There you two are. Well, yes.

- Hello, Friend Owl.

Well, hello.

I've been meaning to speak to you.

I've been looking everywhere.

I thought you'd be by the meadow now.

I'm afraid I got a little

distracted.

So I see. Well, no matter.

I usually find what I'm after.

Speaking of which,

there's someone I'd like you to meet.

- Mena.

- Great Prince.

- Bambi, go to the den.

- Bambi.

I've heard so much about you.

You know, your mama and I

grew up together.

- You did?

- Go to the den.

But I want to hear about Mother.

There'll be plenty of time for that

once you're settled in your new home.

You're sending me away?

No. Just let me explain.

But I did everything you said.

- I even heard with my hooves.

- Bambi, a prince does not...

- That's all you care about, not me.

- Don't speak to me...

I wish Mother was here instead of you!

Oh, my. Well, I've certainly

made a muddle of things.

No. This is my fault.

Bambi needs a mother.

A prince should not be raising a child.

I'm sure gonna miss you guys.

Don't worry. We'll see each other again.

We'll come visit you, if it's not too far.

But Mama says it is too far.

And if you get scared, just be scarier

than whatever's scaring you.

Bambi.

It's time to go.

I'll never forget any of you.

Of course not.

Can't forget your bestest friend.

Being a prince means sacrifice.

He must ignore his feelings

and do what is best for others.

Do you understand?

I'll visit you soon.

Be good for Mena.

And never forget,

you are a prince.

Hello, Princess.

You're not leaving

without saying goodbye?

And I thought we were pals.

I feel for you. Gosh, I really do.

It's gotta be hard to have a father

that's so ashamed of you

that he'd give you away.

Oh, yeah?

Bambi!

Bambi! Are you all right?

Both of you get out of here. Now!

Mommy!

Bambi, run!

Run, Bambi!

Faster, Bambi.

Don't look back! Keep running!

Keep running!

Bambi!

Where's Bambi?

Look! It's Bambi!

We gotta help him.

Make your brave face.

- This one?

- Braver!

- This one?

- No, no.

Make the bravest face

you ever made in your whole life.

This one?

That's the one.

Looky who's here. I guess

somebody didn't learn their lesson.

I learned plenty.

Bambi!

Bambi!

Bambi?

Get up.

Get up!

A prince does not...

Dad.

I'm here.

I'm here.

It was raining and thundering.

It didn't look good for the young prince.

There were thousands of dogs,

but Bambi wasn't a bit scared.

They came closer and closer.

There was nowhere to go.

Then a dog that was tall as a tree

roared from the shadows,

but Bambi was too fast.

- He jumped up...

- High in the air.

- And then came crashing...

- Crashing down.

Right on the big dog's head.

Quiet. I'm telling it.

But the best part was...

The best part was when Thumper

helped Flower make

his bravest brave face.

- And scared all the dogs away. Oops.

- And scared all the dogs away. Oops.

That's how it went.

Hooray for Thumper!

- Look who's here.

- Oh, the young prince.

- Hooray!

- Hooray!

You know, they're okay for sisters.

- Just too bad they're girls.

- Hey!

Oops.

What do you know, Bambi!

Well, looks like

those antlers are finally coming in.

Really? I hadn't noticed.

Thumper's been telling us quite a story.

Yes, yes.

The one with the thousands of dogs.

Thousands?

What can I say? I'm a born storyteller.

I'll bet it seemed like a thousand dogs.

Twitterpated.

What's twitterpated?

Well, it's...

I'll tell you when you're older.

Well, well, well.

If it isn't the young prince.

One of these days we'll meet up again,

and when we do...

Get it off! Get it off! Mommy! Get it off!

Mommy!

See? I told you turtles were scary.

I gotta get going.

My dad's waiting for me.

- Bye, Bambi.

- Bye, Bambi.

Bambi, you never have time

for us anymore.

Yeah. Isn't it wonderful?

Hey, Dad. Where are we going today?

We're already there.

Wow.

I never even knew this was here.

Beautiful, isn't it?

This is...

This is where I first met your mother.

- Really?

- Yes.

I was just about your age.

What were you like?

Me? Well, let me think.

Actually, I was a lot like you.

For it's out of the darkness

that we learn to see

And out of the silence

that songs come to be
