All language subtitles for Den lille Havfrue Sing-Along

I'll tell you a tale of the bottomless
blue and its hay to the starboard deep

hole.

Look out, madam, there may be waiting
for you in the serious fathoms below.

Isn't this great? The salty sea air, the
wind blowing in your face.

Perfect day to be at sea.

Oh, yes.

Delightful.

A fine strong wind and a following sea.

King Triton must be in a friendly type
mood. King Triton? Why, ruler of the

merpeople, lad. Thought every good
sailor knew about him.

Merpeople. Eric, pay no attention to
this nautical nonsense.

But it ain't nonsense. It's the truth.

I'm telling you down in the depths of
the ocean, they live or die.

I'm really looking forward to this
performance, Sebastian.

Your Majesty, this will be the finest
concert I have ever conducted.

Your daughters, they will be
spectacular.

Yes, and especially my little Ariel.
Yes.

Yes, she has the most beautiful voice.

If only she'd show up for rehearsals
once in a while.

We are the daughters of Triton, great
father who loves us and named us well.

And then

there is the youngest in her

musical debut.

Our seventh little sister, we're
presenting her to you. To sing a song of

passion, roll her voices like a bell.
She's our sister.

There it is.

Isn't it fantastic?

Yeah, sure. It's great.

Let's get out of here.

You're not getting cold fins now, are
you? Me?

No way.

It's just, it looks damp in there. Yeah,
and I think I may be coming down with

something.

Yeah, I got this cough.

Copy.

This is great.

I really love this.

Excitement, adventure, danger lurking
around every corner.

It's a dinglehopper.

Humans use these little babies to
straighten their hair out.

See, just a little twirl here and a yank
there on Boioli.

Yeah, got an aesthetically pleasing
configuration of hair that humans go

over. A dinglehopper. What about that
one?

Ah, this.

I haven't seen in years. This is...

Bulbous Snarf Flat.

Now, the Snarf Flat dates back to pretty
hysterical times when humans used to

sit around and stare at each other all
day.

But very boring.

So, they invented this Snarf Flat to
make fine music. Allow me.

Maybe you can make a little planter out
of it or something. I'm sorry.

I've got to go.

Thank you, Skettle.

Anytime, sweetie.

Anytime.

Yes, hurry home, princess.

We wouldn't want to miss old Daddy's
celebration, now would we?

Celebration indeed.

In my day, we had fantastical feasts
when I

lived in the palace.

And now look at me.

Wasted away to practically nothing.

Banished and exiled and practically...

While he and his flimsy fish folks
celebrate.

Well, I'll give him something to
celebrate soon enough.

Flotsam, get some.

I want you to keep an extra close watch
on this pretty little daughter of his.

She may be the key to Triton's undoing.

I don't know what we're going to do with
you, young lady. Daddy, I'm sorry. I

just forgot.

As a result of your careless behavior...
Careless and reckless behavior. The

entire celebration was... Well, it was
ruined.

That's all.

Completely destroyed.

This concert was to be the pinnacle of
my distinguished career.

Now, thanks to you, I am the
laughingstock of the entire kingdom.

But it wasn't her fault. Uh, well,
first, uh, this shirt is...

Yeah, yeah, and we tried to, but we
couldn't. And he didn't.

And we, whoa!

And then we were safe.

Then the seagull came, and it was this
is this, and that is that.

Seagull? What?

Oh, you went up to the surface again,
didn't you?

Didn't you?

Nothing happened.

Oh, Ariel, how many times must we go
through this?

You could have been seen by one of those
barbarians, by one of those... Humans?

Daddy, they're not barbarians. They're
dangerous.

Do you think I want to see my youngest
daughter snared by some fish -eater's

hook? I'm 16 years old. I'm not a child
anymore. Don't you take that tone of

voice with me, young lady. As long as
you live under my ocean, you'll obey my

rules. But if you would just listen. Not
another word.

And I am never, never to hear of you
going to the surface again.

They think they know everything.

You give them an inch, they swim all
over you.

Do you think I was too hard on her?

Definitely not. Why, if Ariel was my
daughter, I'd show her who was boss.

None of this flitting to the surface and
all of such nonsense.

No, sir, I'd keep her under tight
control.

You're absolutely right, Sebastian.

Class. Ariel needs constant supervision.

Constant. Someone to watch over her. To
keep her out of trouble. All the time.

And you are just the crab to do it.

How do I get myself into these
situations?

I should be writing symphonies. Not
tagging along after some headstrong

teenager.

What is that girl up to?

Only I could make him understand.

I just don't see things the way he does.

I don't see how a world that makes such
wonderful things could be bad.

Look at this stuff.

Isn't it neat?

Wouldn't you think my collection's
complete?

Wouldn't you think I'm the girl, the
girl who...

Dance.

Listen.

If your father knew about this place...
You're not going to kill him, are you?

Oh, please, Sebastian. He would never
understand.

Ariel, you're under a lot of pressure
down here. Come with me. I'll take you

home and get you something warm to
drink. What do you suppose?

Ariel?

What are you?

Jumping jellyfish.

Oh, yes.

I don't know. He looks kind of hairy and
slobbery to me.

Not that one.

The one playing the snarf blast.

Silence! Silence!

It is now my honor and privilege to
present our esteemed Prince Eric with a

special, very expensive, very large
birthday present.

Ah, Grimsby. Your beanpole. You
shouldn't have.

I know.

Happy birthday, Eric.

Gee,

Grim.

It's, uh... It's really something.

Yes, I commissioned it myself.

Of course, I had hoped it would be a
wedding present. Oh, come on, Grim.

start. Look, you're not still sore
because I didn't fall for the Princess

Glowerhaven, are you?

Oh, Eric, it isn't me alone. The entire
kingdom wants to see you happily settle

down with the right girl.

Oh, she's out there somewhere.

I just... I just haven't found her yet.

Oh, perhaps you haven't been looking
hard enough.

Oh, believe me, Grim, when I find her,
I'll know.

Without a doubt, it'll just... Bam! Hit
me.

Like lightning.

Come on.

It's hard to say.

Oh, I can't make out a heartbeat.

No, look.

He's breathing.

He's so beautiful.

What would I give to live where you are?

What would I pay to stay here beside
you?

It's just strange on my blood pressure,
don't you?

A girl rescued me.

She was singing.

She had the most beautiful voice.

Ah, Eric, I think you've swallowed a bit
too much seawater.

Off we go.

We just want to forget this whole thing
ever happened.

The sea king will never know.

You won't tell him.

I won't tell him. I will stay in one
piece.

in love with a human.

And not just any human. A prince!

Daddy'll love that.

King Chitin's headstrong, lovesick girl
would make a charming addition

to my little garden.

Oh, she's got it bad.

What? What has she got?

Isn't it obvious, Daddy?

Ariel's in love.

Ariel?

In love?

Okay, so far, so good. I don't think the
king knows.

But it will not be easy keeping
something like this a secret for long.

He loves me.

He loves me not.

He loves me.

I knew it.

Arielle, stop talking crazy. I've got to
see him again.

Tonight. Scuttle knows where he lives.
Arielle, please.

Will you get your head out of the clouds
and back in the water where it belongs?

I'll swim up to his castle. Then
Flounder will splash around to get his

attention and then we'll go... Down here
is your home.

Ariel, listen to me. The human world,
it's a mess.

Life under the sea is better than
anything they got up there.

The seaweed is always greener in
somebody else's lake. You dream about

up there, but that is a big mistake.

Just look at the world around you, right
here on the ocean floor.

Such wonderful things around you. What
more are you looking for?

Take it from me.

Up on the shore they work all day. Out
in the sun they slave away.

While the devoting boats are floating
under the sea.

Now here all the fish is happy.

As after the waves they roll. The fish
on the land is happy.

It's hot because they're in their bowl.

But fish in the bowl is lucky.

They aim for a worse fate.

One day when the boss gets hungry.

Guess who called me on the plate.

Hello, under the sea.

Under the sea.

Nobody beat us, fry us, and eat us in
frequency.

We was the land folks love to cook.

Under the sea we have the hook up. We
got no trouble.

Just like this video, we got the video
naturally.

Even the sturgeon and the ray, they get
the urge to start to play.

We got to hear it, you got to hear it,
under the sea.

The new to play the flute, the cop play
the harp, the place play the bass. The

sound and sharp, the bass play the
brass, the chub play the tom. The flute

the duke of soul.

The ray, he can play the lings on the
strings, the chomps rocking on the

It melt and it rot. It know where it's
at. It know that blood.

You know how to wail here.

He wants to see you right away.
Something about Ariel.

He knows.

Let's see now.

Who could the lucky merman be?

Come in, Sebastian.

I mustn't worry. I must remain calm.

Your Majesty.

Sebastian,

I'm concerned about Ariel.

Have you noticed she's been acting
peculiar lately?

Peculiar? You know, mooning about,
daydreaming, singing to herself.

You haven't noticed.

Oh, I... Sebastian.

Hmm?

You've been keeping something from me.

Keeping something?

About Ariel.

Ariel?

In love?

I tried to stop her.

She wouldn't listen. I told her to stay
away from humans. They are bad. They are

trouble.

Who said anything about humans?

I consider myself a reasonable merman.

I set certain rules, and I expect those
rules to be obeyed. But, Daddy,

I... Is it true you rescued a human from
drowning?

Daddy, I had... Contact between the
human world and the merworld is strictly

forbidden. Ariel, you know that.
Everyone knows that. He would have died.

One less human to worry about.

You don't even know him.

Know him?

Savage harpooning fish eaters.

Incapable of any feeling. Daddy, I love
him.

No.

Have you lost your senses completely?

He's a human. You're a mermaid.

I don't care.

So help me, Ariel.

I am going to get through to you.

And if this is...

Poor child.

Poor sweet child.

She has a very serious problem.

If only there was something we could do.

But there is something.

Who... Who are you? Don't be scared.

We represent someone who can help you.

Someone who can make all your dreams
come true.

Just imagine you and your prince
together

forever.

I don't understand.

Ursula has great powers.

The sea witch?

Why, that's... I couldn't possibly...

That was only a suggestion.

Wait.

Yes?

Poor Ariel. I didn't mean to tell.

It was an accident.

Ariel, where are you going?

Ariel, what are you doing here with this
riffraff?

I'm going to see Ursula.

Ariel, no!

No, she's a demon! She's a monster! Why
don't you go tell my father? You're good

at that.

But... but I... Come on!

Come in.

Come in, my child.

We mustn't lurk in doorways.

It's rude.

One night, question your upbringing.

Now, then, you're here because you have
a thing for this human, this prince

fellow. Not that I blame you. He is
quite a catch, isn't he?

Well, Angel Fish, the solution to your
problem is simple.

The only way to get what you want.

is to become a human yourself.

Can you do that?

My dear, sweet child.

That's what I do.

It's what I live for. To help
unfortunate merfolk like yourself.

Poor souls with no one else to turn to.

I admit that in the past I've been a
nasty...

They weren't kidding when they called
me, well, a witch.

But you'll find that nowadays I've
mended all my ways, repented, seen the

and made a switch.

Yes.

And I fortunately know a little magic.

It's a talent that I always have
possessed.

And here lately, please don't laugh, I
use it on behalf of the miserable,

and depressed.

Pathetic.

Poor, unfortunate souls.

In pain.

In need.

This one longing to be thinner. That one
wants to get the girl. And do I help

them? Yes, indeed.

Those poor, unfortunate souls.

So sad.

So true.

They come flocking to my cauldron
crying, Spells, Ursula, please. And I

them. Yes, I do.

Now it's happened once or twice.

Someone couldn't pay the price.

And I'm afraid I had to rake them across
the coast.

Yes, I've had the odd complaints. But on
the whole, I've been a saint.

To those poor, unfortunate souls.

Now, here's the deal.

I will make you a potion that will turn
you into a human for three days.

Got that? Three days.

Now, listen. This is important.

Before the sun sets on the third day,
you've got to get dear old Princey to

in love with you.

That is, he's got to kiss you.

Not just any kiss.

The kiss of true love.

If he does kiss you before the sun sets
on the third day, you'll remain human

permanently.

But if he doesn't, you turn back into a
mermaid and...

You belong to me. No, Ariane.

Have we got a deal?

If I become human, I'll never be with my
father or sisters again. That's right.

But you'll have your man.

Life's full of tough choices.

Isn't it?

Oh, and there is one more.

We haven't discussed the subject of
payment.

You can't get something for nothing, you
know.

But I don't have... I'm not asking much.
Just a token, really, a trifle.

You'll never even miss it.

What I want from you is your voice.

My voice?

You've got it, sweetcakes.

No more talking, singing, zip.

But without my voice, how can I...
You'll have your looks.

Your pretty face.

And don't underestimate the importance
of the body language.

Ah, the men out there don't like a lot
of blabber.

They think a girl who gossips is a fool.

Yes, on land it's much preferred for
ladies not to say a word. And after all,

dear, what is idle prattle for?

Come on then, not all that impressed
with conversation.

True gentlemen avoid it when they can.

But they don't in swoon and fawn on a
lady who's withdrawn.

It's she who holds her tongue who gets
her mad.

Come on, you poor, unfortunate soul.

Go ahead.

Make your choice.

I'm a very busy woman and I haven't got
all day. It won't cost much.

Just your voice.

You poor, unfortunate soul.

It's sad, but true.

If you want to cross a bridge, my sweet,
you've got to pay the toll. Take a gulp

and take a breath and go ahead and sign
your scroll. Have some jets and now I've

got her, boys.

The boss is on a roll.

This poor unfortunate soul.

of my head.

I've looked everywhere, Max.

Where could she be?

Well, look at what the catfish dragged
in.

Look at you.

Look at you.

There's something different.

Don't tell me... I got it. It's your
hairdo, right?

You've been using the dinglehopper,
right?

No? No, huh? Well, let me see.

New seashells?

No new seashells. I gotta admit, I can't
put my foot on it right now, but if I

just stand here long enough, I know that
I'll... She's got legs, you idiot!

She traded her vice to the sea witch and
got legs.

Jeez, man.

I knew that.

Ariel's been turned into a human.

She's got to make the prince fall in
love with her, and he's got to kiss her.

And she's only got three days.

Just look at her.

On legs.

On human legs.

My nerves are shot. This is a
catastrophe.

What would her father say?

I'll tell you what her father'd say.

He'd say he's going to kill himself
across... That's what I thought I'd say.

I'm going to march myself straight home
right now and tell him just like I

should have done the minute. And don't
you shake your head at me, young lady.

Maybe there's still time.

If we could get that witch to give you
back your voice, you could go home with

all the normal fish and just be... just
be...

just be miserable for the rest of your
life.

All right, all right.

I'll try to help you find that prince.

Boy, what a soft shell I'm turning out
to be.

Now, Ariel, I'm telling you, if you want
to be a human, the first thing you got

to do is dress like one. Now, let me
see.

You look sensational.

Are you okay, miss?

I'm sorry if this knucklehead scared
you.

He's harmless, really.

You seem very familiar to me.

Have we met?

We have met. I knew it. You're the one.
The one I've been looking for. What's

your name?

What's wrong?

What is it?

You can't speak?

And you couldn't be who I thought.

What is it?

You're hurt?

No, no. You need help.

Whoa, whoa. Careful.

Careful. Easy.

Gee, you must have really been through
something.

Don't worry.

Don't worry. I'll help you.

Come on.

Come on. You'll be okay.

Washed up from a shipwreck.

Oh, the poor thing.

We'll have you feeling better in no
time.

I'll just... I'll just get this washed
for you.

Well, you must have at least heard about
this girl. No. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

I've never gotten anything right. I
mean, really.

Madam. If Eric's looking for a

girl, I know a couple of highly
available ones right here.

Oh,

Eric, be reasonable.

Nice young ladies. Just don't swim
around rescuing people in the middle of

ocean and then flitter off into oblivion
like some... I'm telling you, Grimm,

she was real.

I'm going to find that girl.

And I'm going to marry her. Come on,
honey.

Don't be shy.

Oh, Eric.

Isn't she a visual?

You look wonderful.

Come, come, come. You must be Spanish.
Let me help you, my dear.

There we go.

That's better.

Quite comfy.

It's not often that we have such a
lovely dinner guest, eh, Eric?

Do you like it?

It is rather fine.

Oh, my.

Sorry, Crab. Why, Eric, that's the first
time I've seen you smile in weeks.

Oh, amusing.

Carlotta, my dear, what's for dinner?
Oh, you're going to love it. Chef's been

fixing his specialty, stuffed crab.

Les poissons, les poissons. How I love
les poissons. Love to chop and to serve

little fish.

First I cut off their heads, then I pull
out their bones.

Ah, mais oui, ça c 'est toujours
délicieux.

Les poissons, les poissons.

With a cleaver I hack them in two.

I pull out what's inside and I serve it
up. My God, I love little fishes, don't

you?

Here's something for ending the palace.

Prepared in the classic technique.

First you pound the fish flat with a
mallet.

Then you slash through the skin, give
the belly a slice.

Then you rub some salt in, cause that
makes it best. Nice.

Zutalo, I have missed you. one.

Sacrebleu, what is this? How on earth
could I miss such a sweet little

crab?

Quel dommage, what a laugh. Here we go,
in this house. Now some flour, I think,

just enough.

Now I'll stuff you with bread. It don't
hurt, cause you're dead.

And you're certainly lucky you are.

Cause it's gonna be a hot and magic
silver pot today.

Sorry, madame.

You know, Eric, perhaps our young guest
might enjoy seeing some of the sights of

the kingdom.

Something in the way of a tour.

I'm sorry, Grim. What was that? You
can't spend all your time moping about.

need to get out.

Do something. Have a life.

Get your mind off... Easy, Grim, easy.

It's not a bad idea.

If she's interested.

Well, what do you say?

Would you like to join me on a tour of
my kingdom tomorrow?

Wonderful. Now, let's eat before this
crab wanders off my plate.

This has got to be, without a doubt, the
single most humiliating day of my life.

I hope that you appreciate what I go
through for you, young lady.

Now, we got to make a plan to get that
boy to kiss you.

Tomorrow, when he takes you for that
ride, you gotta look your best.

You gotta botch your eyes like this.

You gotta buckle up your lips like this.

You are hopeless, child.

You know that.

Completely hopeless.

Any sign of them?

No, your majesty.

We've searched everywhere.

We've found no trace of your daughter or
Sebastian.

Well, keep looking. Leave no shell
unturned, no coral unexplored. Let no

this kingdom sleep until she's safe at
home.

Yes, sire.

Oh, what have I done?

What have I done?

Have you kissed her yet?

Not yet.

Oh.

Yo,

Clownda, any kissing?

No, not yet.

Well, they better get cracking.

Nothing is happening.

Only one day left, and that boy ain't
pucking up once.

Okay. All right, this calls for a little
vocal romantic stimulation.

Stand back.

Wow.

Somebody should find that poor animal
and put it out of its misery.

among unsurrounded biometers.

You want something done, you've got to
do it yourself.

First, we've got to create the mood.

Percussions.

Strings.

Twins.

Words.

There you see her, sitting there across
the way.

She don't got a lot to say, but there's
something about her.

And you don't know why, but you're dying
to try. You want to kiss the girl.

Did you hear something?

Yes, you want her.

Look at her, you know you do.

Possible she want you too. There is one
way to ask her.

You don't take a word, not a single
word. Go on and kiss the girl.

Sing with me now.

You

know,

I feel really bad not knowing your name.

Maybe I could guess.

But, uh... Mildred.

Okay, no.

How about Diana?

Rachel? Ariel.

Her name is Ariel.

Ariel?

Ariel?

That's kind of pretty.

Okay. Ariel.

Boy, you better do it soon. No time will
be better.

She don't say a word, and she won't say
a word until you kiss the girl.

Sha -la -la -la -la -la, don't be
scared. You've got the mood prepared.

Go on and kiss the girl.

Sha -la -la -la -la -la, don't stop now,
go and try and hide it out, you wanna

kiss the girl.

Sha -la -la -la -la -la, so good on you
now, listen to the song, it's time to

kiss the girl.

Sha -la -la -la -la, hear music play, do
what the music say, you gotta kiss the

girl.

Kiss the girl.

Go on.

Hang on.

I got you.

Nice work, boys.

That was a close one.

Too close.

The little tramp.

She's better than I thought.

At this rate, he'll be kissing her by
sunset for sure.

Well, It's time Ursula took matters into
her own tentacles.

The fighting star will be mine.

And then I'll make him rise.

I'll see him wriggle like a worm on a
hook.

If I may say, far better than any dream
girl is one of flesh and blood.

One warm and caring and right before
your eyes.

This idiot bobbling about.

Right. As if you two didn't know, huh?
The whole town's buzzing about the

getting himself hitched this afternoon.

You know, he's getting married.

You silly sidewalker. I just wanted to
wish you luck. I'll catch you later. I

wouldn't miss it.

Well, Eric, it appears that I was
mistaken. This mystery maiden of yours

does, in fact, exist.

And she is lovely.

Congratulations, my dear.

We wish to be married as soon as
possible.

Oh, yes, of course, Eric, but these
things do take time. This afternoon,

Grimsby, the wedding ship departs at
sunset.

Oh.

Hey, well, Eric, as you wish.

things are working out according to my
ultimate design

soon i'll have that little mermaid and
the ocean

Oh, no.

She's done it. I got it.

Ariel!

Ariel!

Ariel.

I was flying.

Of course I was flying.

I saw the watch.

The witch was watching the mirror, and
she was singing with a stolen set of

pipes.

Have I ever been wrong?

I mean when it's important.

What are we going to do?

Before the sun sets on the third day.

Ariel,

drop onto that.

Flounder, get onto that boat as fast as
your fins can carry you.

I'll try.

I've got to get to the sea king.

He must know about this.

What about me? What about me? You find a
way to stall that wedding.

Stall the wedding?

What am I... What?

That's it.

To be your lawfully wedded wife for as
long as you both shall live?

I do.

Do you?

You can talk.

You're the one. Eric, get away from her.

It was you all the time.

I'm a much bigger fish. Ursula, stop!

Why, King Triton. How are you?

Let her go.

Not a chance, Triton. She's mine now.

We made a deal.

Daddy, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to. I
didn't mean to.

You see?

The contract's legal, binding and
complete. unbreakable, even for you.

Of course, I always was a girl with an
eye for a bargain. The daughter of the

great sea king is a very precious
commodity.

But I might be willing to make an
exchange for someone even

better.

Meg, what are you doing?

Rimm, I lost her once. I'm not going to
lose her again.

You monster!

Now, fool with me, you little...

She really does love him, doesn't she,
Sebastian?

Well,

it's like I always say, Your Majesty.

Children got to be free to lead their
own life.

You always say that.

Then I guess there's just one problem
left.

And what's that, Your Majesty?

How much I'm going to miss her.

In somebody else's lake. You dream about
going up there. But that is a big

mistake. Just look at the world around
you. Right here on the ocean floor.

Such wonderful things around you. What
more are you looking for?

Under the sea.

Under the sea.

Darling, it's better down where it's
wetter. Take it from me.

Up on the shore, they work all day.

Bye. Bye. Bye.

Bye.

Under the sea.

Under the sea.

Nobody beat us, fry us, and eat us in
frequency.

We was the land folks loves to cook.

Under the sea we ask a hook. We got no
troubles. Life is the bubbles under the

sea. Under the sea.

Under the sea. Under the sea. Since life
is free here, we got to be here

naturally. Naturally.

Even the surgeon and the rain.

They did the earth.

We've got to play.

We've got to hear it. You've got to hear
it. I've got to see.

The new to play the flute. The cop play
the harp. The place play the bass. The

sound the chop. The boss play the brass.
The chum play the tongue. The flute is

the duke of soul.

The race he can play. The links on the
strings. The chops rocking on the

blackfish. He sings the smelt and the
sprout. He know where it's at. And all

that blowfish blow.

Each little clown here, no hotter down
here, under the sea.

Each little slug here, cutting a rug
here, under the sea.

Each little snail here, no hotter whale
here, that's why it's...
