Your son's awake.
6
Before the sun rises, you're sorry.
7
Come on, Dad.
8
Let's go.
9
You said I could patrol with you today.
10
And today is started.
11
You promise?
12
You up?
13
Let's do this.
14
Let's do this.

So what's first?
16
Give orders for the hunt?
17

18
Dad, you're going the wrong way.
19
Dad, I'm not supposed to go up here.
20
Look, Simba.
21
Everything the light touches is our kingdom.
22
You rule all of that?
23
Yes, but a king's time as ruler rises and falls like the sun.
24
One day, Simba, the sun will set on my time here and will rise with you as the new king.
25
All of this will belong to me?
26
It belongs to no one, but will be yours to protect.
27
A great responsibility.
28
Everything the light touches, those trees, and the watering hole, in that mountain, and beyond those shadows.
29
You must not go there, Simba.
30
But I thought a king could do whatever he wants.
31
Take any territory.
32
While others search for what they can take, a true king searches for what he can give.
33
Everything you see exists together in a delicate balance.
34
As king, you need to understand that balance and respect all the creatures, from the crawling ant to the leaping antelope.
35
But Dad, don't we eat the antelope?
36
Yes, Simba.
37
But let me explain.
38
When we die, our bodies become the grass, and the antelope eat the grass.
39
And so we are all connected in the great circle of life.
40
Sire!
41
Morning, Zazu.
42

Yes, sire.
44

46
The buzz from the bees...
47
Ready for some fun.
48
The birds are tweeting at four in the morning.
49
I'm like, birds, we get it.
50
Stay low to the ground.
51
I got this.
52
Check the wind, shadows, and wait for the perfect moment of bounce.
53
And now the baboons are going ape.
54
Of course, as I say, cheetahs never prosper.
55
That's what I say.
56
I'll say it again.
57
Cheetahs never prosper.
58
Ow!
59
Come on!
60
It's the news!
61
That's very good!
62
Sire!
63
Sire, hyenas in the Pride Lands.
64
They're on the hunt.
65
Where's the Robbie?
66
She's leading the charge.
67
Zazu, text them to home.

What is the Shadowing Technique?
Shadowing is a science-backed language learning technique originally developed for professional interpreter training and popularized by polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. The method is simple but powerful: you listen to native English audio and immediately repeat it out loud — like a shadow following the speaker with just a 1–2 second delay. Unlike passive listening or grammar drills, shadowing forces your brain and mouth muscles to simultaneously process and reproduce real speech patterns. Research shows it significantly improves pronunciation accuracy, intonation, rhythm, connected speech, listening comprehension, and speaking fluency — making it one of the most effective methods for IELTS Speaking preparation and real-world English communication.
