[Man's Voice]Put your faith

in what you most believe in

Two worlds

One family

Trust your heart

Let fate decide

To guide these lives we see

A paradise

untouched by man

Within this world

blessed with love

A simple life

They live in peace

Softly tread the sand

below your feet now

Two worlds

One family

Trust your heart

Let fate decide

To guide these lives we see

Beneath the shelter

of the trees

Only love can enter here

A simple life

They live in peace

Raise your head up

Lift high the load

Take strength

from those that need you

Build high the walls

Build strong the beams

A new life is waiting

But danger's no stranger here

Mommy, look !

Look over there !

[Ape]

Kala, she's back!

[ Sighs ]

Are you all right,

dear ?

I'm fine.

No, really, honestly.

It's just that I got

a little bit... sidetracked.

[ All Gasping ]

Well, isn't that, uh--

Well, so--

Well,

it's just so, so--

That's freaky-lookin', okay ?

That's what it is.

- Terkina !

- Well, it is !

- I mean, what the heck is it anyway ?

- He's a baby.

Ow ! I can't--

- [ Cooing, Laughing ]

- So, where's his mama ?

Well, I'm going to be

his mother now.

[Baby Cooing]

You know, he's not so bad

once you get used to him.

Kala's gonna be its mother now.

[ Grunts, Sniffing ]

- [ Laughing ]

- Kerchak, I saved him from Sabor.

Kala, it won't replace

the one we lost.

I know that.

But... he needs me.

But, it-it-it--

Kala, look at it.

It's not our kind.

[ Sighs ]

No. You have to take it back.

Take him back ?

But he'll die !

- If the jungle wants him--

- I want him.

Kala, I cannot let you put

our family in danger.

- Does he look dangerous to you ?

- [ Roaring ]

[Baby Crying]

Hmm. Was it alone ?

Yes.

Sabor killed his family.

- Are you sure ?

- Yes. There are no others.

[ Sighs ]

Then you may keep him.

- Kerchak, I know he'll be a good son.

- I said he could stay.

That doesn't make him

my son.

We will nest here

for the night.

So, um,

whatcha gonna call it ?

I'm gonna call him...

Tarzan.

Tarzan ? Okay.

He's your baby.

All right, little lady, come on.

It's way past your nest time.

- Oh, Mom, five more minutes ?

- No !

- Two more minutes ?

- No !

One more "minutes" ?

[ Gasps ]

Oh, no, no, no.

- Shh, shh, shh. Don't cry. I'm here.

- [ Crying ]

Come on, come on.

Come, stop your crying

It'll be all right

Just take my hand

Hold it tight

I will protect you

from all around you

I will be here

Don't you cry

[Man's Voice]For one so small

You seem so strong

My arms will hold you

Keep you safe and warm

This bond between us

can't be broken

I will be here

Don't you cry

'Cause you'll be in my heart

Yes, you'll be in my heart

From this day on

Now and forever more

You'll be in my heart

No matter what they say

You'll be here in my heart

Always

Always.

Mmm.

[ Gasps ]

Tarzan ?

- Tarzan ?

- [ Trumpets Like An Elephant ]

- I sure scared you, Mom. Whoa.

- You sure did !

Can't you imitate

any quieter animals ?

Oh, Mom, they're no fun.

Wanna see me be a leopard ?

[ Snarling ]

- Why don't you just come up

with your own sound ?

- [ Screeching ]

Mmm.

[ Yelling Sounds ]

- [ Imitating Yelling Sounds ]

- [ Mothers ] Kala !

[ Yelling ]

- Oops.

- [ Quiet Growls ]

Hee-hee.

Tarzan, thank goodness

you're all right !

Kala and I have been

so worried !

Thank you. Thank you so much

for finding him, Kerchak.

You are such a wise

and caring leader.

Run.

Ooh !

Um--

Hello !

Are you thick in the head ?

- What ?

- How many times do I have to tell ya ?

If you want Kerchak to like you,

stay away from him !

- Come on, Terk ! Step on it !

- Last one there's a dung beetle !

- Yeah ! And the first one's

gotta eat it !

- Terk, can I come ?

Well, yeah, you could if you could keep

up, but... you can't really keep up.

Wait up, guys.

Wait up ! Right behind ya.

[ Elephants Trumpeting ]

Ah, yeah, take that.

Stop hitting yourself.

- Stop hitting yourself !

Stop hitting yourself !

- Ow ! Ow !

The fun has arrived

Thank you very much.

What took you

so long ?

I had a little pest control problem,

but it's all taken care of.

Hi, guys.

Terk, what is this ?

Some kind of joke ?

[Mungo] Tell me I'm not

lookin' at the hairless wonder.

Terk said I could come along

if I could keep up.

- Ah, no, Terk, come on !

- Terk !

I'll handle this, guys.

Okay ?

Listen, buddy, come here. We got a tiny,

little, itsy-bitsy problem here.

Personally, I'd love to hang out

with you. You know I would.

But the guys, they need

a little convincing, you know.

Okay.

What do I gotta do ?

Do ? What do you gotta do ?

It's so stupid !

- What ?

- Well, you gotta--

You gotta go get a hair.

A hair ?

- Yeah, a hair. Uh-huh.

- [Elephant Trumpeting]

An elephant hair.

[ Trumpeting ]

An elephant hair ?

Like I said,

it's stupid, right ?

Listen, take it from me.

Go home, okay ?

Who needs this aggravation ? You know ?

I'm probably gonna leave soon myself.

You go, I'll catch up.

All right ?

You see ? Leave it to me.

I told ya-- Tarzan !

- [ Tarzan Yelling ]

- Tarzan, no !

[ Yelling ]

- [ All Groaning ]

- That one hurt him.

Look !

- [Terk]

Oh, oh, there he is! He's alive !

- Hey, guys !

[ All ]

Hi !

[Terk]

Oh, no. No, no, no !

Come back !

Come back !

This guy's great ! If he lives,

you should bring him around more often.

- Come on, let's go get a better seat.

- Ohh.

- You never get enough sleep.

- I get enough sleep.

Mom, are you sure

this water's sanitary ?

It looks questionable to me.

It's fine, honey.

Yech !

But what about bacteria ?

Tantor, can't you see

Mommy's talking ?

[ Gasps ]

Watch out ! There's something

swimming ! It's coming right at you !

Honey, Mommy's losing

her patience.

- But this time I really see something !

- Oh, boy.

[Gasping]

Piranha ! It's a piranha !
