The midsummer sun is the badge on your chest
Entering the room you're the flame above the rest
No need for the makeup no need for the art
When you speak the world stops you capture every heart
Some call you arrogant or a little too loud
But it's just a warm soul standing tall and proud
Chasing every dream with your head held high
A king on your own no applause needed to fly
Happy Birthday my star-shining Lion
Writing your poems in the land of the Zion
With the truest heart doing what is right
Though the road is long your fire burns bright
Happy Birthday my show-stopping Lion
Raise up a glass let the cheers keep on flyin'
The world has more meaning with you in the frame
Today you're the lead and we're shouting your name
Though sometimes the silence feels heavy and deep
Hiding your claws and the secrets you keep
Just turn around and you'll see where we stand
Cheering you on through the wild and the sand
Happy Birthday my star-shining Lion
Writing your poems in the land of the Zion
With the truest heart doing what is right
Though the road is long your fire burns bright
Happy Birthday my show-stopping Lion
Raise up a glass let the cheers keep on flyin'
The world has more meaning with you in the frame
Today you're the lead and we're shouting your name
Hey Lion King Happy Birthday
Keep on shining keep on lighting the way
