(Verse)
I will be your mate. Father of your young ones.
I will serve with honor .I will serve with grace.
I will be your mate, loving and fulfilling.
Surely to defend you,
When hunters thirst for killing.

(Chorus)
I am the mighty lion, the King of all felines.
The pride of every jungle, I'm running out of time.

(Verse 2)
Alas I only kill: when our needs be hunger.
And why a man must kill, I do not care to wonder. 

(Chorus 2)
We are of a species, certain to be doomed.
Threatened by extinction, not even to be mourned.

(Verse 3)
But I will be your mate; All hail the lions love song.
A lion must be brave, even when he is afraid.
