Original subtitles

TARZAN: The jungle.

Here I was born.

And here my parents died when I was but an infant.

I would've soon perished, too,

had I not been found by a kindly she-ape named Kala,

who adopted me as her own and taught me the ways of the wild.

I learned quickly and grew stronger each day.

And now, I share the friendship and trust of all jungle animals.

The jungle is filled with beauty,

and danger, and lost cities filled with good and evil.

This is my domain,

and I protect those who come here,

for if am Tarzan,

Lord of the Jungle.

(YELLS JUNGLE CRY)

(BIRDS WARBLING)

(GIBBERING)

Strange.

The bones of an elephant picked clean by ants.

But tell me, little one, since when do ants eat ivory tusks?

(GIBBERING)

TARZAN: There is evil afoot in our jungle, Nkima.

-(GIBBERING) -Yes, an animal did this.

The most dangerous animal of all.

Man.

And we must stop it before it goes any further.

TOLEE: King Aga should be pleased with this ivory we bring home.

Perhaps, but we have still not found the Graveyard of the Elephants.

(CHUCKLES)

You mean the place piled treetop high with the tusks of millions of elephants?

Lildor, that is nothing but a myth.

ILLDOR: Shh! Best you not let King Aga hear of your words.

And why not?

ILLDOR: Because the King declares it is a legend, not a myth.

If it exists, we will find it.

And if not?

If not, we shall continue as we always have.

TOLEE: Continue slaughtering innocent animals? It disgusts me!

I do not enjoy it either, Tolee, but it is the King's will.

Too many of our friends have given their lives for what those men carry.

NKima, I want you to return home.

(GIBBERING)

I know you want to help, little friend.

But it's important that Tantor know of this danger.

(GIBBERING)

TOLEE: Novard at last.

It is good to be back, brother.

ILLDOR: Let us hope the King feels the same way about us.

I am not pleased, llidor, that you did not find the Elephants' Graveyard.

But my brother has brought back much ivory!

So, the cub bares his claws to the King.

Please, Your Majesty, he is young. He speaks without thinking.

What he speaks most often is treason!

Treason?

AGA: Treason!

It is said you mock our legends.

You know the penalty for treason, Tolee!

You shall be imprisoned

until the Great Beast desires entertainment!

Guards!

Take him away!

TARZAN: There is a feeling of evil about this wall.

Whatever is kept here, they do not mean for it to escape.

(SNIFFING)

Strange.

I smell the spoor of Tantor, yet not Tanfor.

The odor becomes stronger! It is as though...

(RUMBLING)

It is impossible!

(ELEPHANT SNARLING)

(TRUMPETING)

(TRUMPETS)

(TRUMPETING)

Do not destroy him yet, Great Beast.

By the power of my scepter

taken from your own tusk,

grant that we may question him first.

You should not have offended the God, Ben-Tor.

His memory is long.

Ben-Tor is no more a God than you are.

He is simply an animal who belongs to an earlier time.

(GROWLING)

And you are simply a fool.

Do you know of a place called the Elephants' Graveyard?

Yes, I know of such a place.

Good. You will lead my men there.

Listen carefully, Aga.

The location of the Elephants' Graveyard is the greatest secret in the jungle.

Ben-Tor will shrivel and your city will crumble

before I reveal that secret to you.

We shall see, Tarzan.

The Great Beast can be very persuasive.

(LAUGHS)

Throw him in with the other traitor!

(SQUAWKS)

(GIBBERING)

(GIBBERING)

(TRUMPETING)

(GIBBERING)

It is no use, Tarzan.

There is no way out of Aga's jails.

If there were, Tolee, would you try to escape?

I think you may yet have your chance.

That is not possible.

Can you get a message to your brother?

I think so. Some of my friends are still loyal.

Good. Here is what we must do.

TOLEE: Jildor did it!

You are almost free, Tolee.

But how? The windows and doors are still barred.

There are guards all around us.

(METAL CREAKING)

ll do not believe it!

Hurry, Tolee.

It is time to go.

You did well with the bow, llidor. I owe you thanks.

It is I who should thank you for saving my brother's life.

He is no traitor, Tarzan.

I know. But he is still in danger here. And now, so are you.

TOLEE: He is right, brother.

King Aga will know you helped us escape.

I would teach your greedy king a lesson.

-Will you help me? -Gladly.

-TARZAN: lildor? -Very well.

I have no more stomach for King Aga's ways.

Follow me then. And be silent.

Prisoners escaping! Prisoners escaping!

Catch them!

They must not get away!

COMMANDER: Faster, men. Move!

They cannot be far ahead!

TARZAN: Many men seek to destroy your sacred Graveyard!

We must all join together to prevent this!

But these men are many and well-armed, So we must use cunning.

We will leave the pass to the Graveyard unguarded.

The rest of us will make a stand on the plain of the baobab trees,

so the men will think we guard something of great value.

(GIBBERING)

Calmly, Nkima.

(GIBBERING)

Well done, little friend.

They come, my brothers. Let us go to the plain!

(TRUMPETING)

SCOUT: Captain! Captain!

We have found them!

Where are they?

Only a few miles from here, on a savanna where grow large trees.

They wait. Almost, it seems, as though they wait for us.

The Elephant Graveyard!

We must be near it!

Else, why would they gather?

Prepare to advance.

(CAWING)

(SNARLING AND GROWLING)

They should have been here by now!

Patience, Tolee.

Our scout will soon tell us.

-Here is Neeta now. -(CAWS)

(CAWING)

They are here.

They watch us from hiding.

When do we attack?

Are you so anxious to feel the claws of a lion?

Those are jungle beasts out there!

No, there is another way to drive them off.

Fetch me the archers.

I do not like this.

The soldiers are too quiet.

I feel something is wrong. Stay alert.

Tarzan!

I never thought these men were desperate enough to burn the jungle.

(GROWLING)

Steady. Hold fast!

(TRUMPETING)

(SNARLING AND GROWLING)

(TRUMPETING)

TARZAN: Tantor! Numa! Mangani!

Stay!

They have broken.

Now, we attack.

After them!

Ilidor, Tolee! Follow the animals!

I'll delay the troops as long as I can.

All right, but be careful, Tarzan!

(WOOD CREAKING)

(SHRIEKS)

(TRUMPETING)

(SHRIEKS)

Shall we go after the others?

There is no need. This is the important one.

With Tarzan as a guide, the Elephant Graveyard...

(LAUGHING)

Is ours!

I did not think Tarzan's plan would fail.

It did not fail. It succeeded, exactly as he planned!

But Tarzan himself was captured.

Yet the Elephant Graveyard is safe.

And that is what was important to him.

(GIBBERING)

(TRUMPETING)

(GROWLING)

But what is important to these animals is their friend, Tarzan.

(GIBBERING)

(TRUMPETING)

TOLEE: And it looks like we are going to find him!

They must be keeping Tarzan in the tower.

TOLEE: If that is so, there is no way to rescue him.

He will be too well guarded.

Still, we must try.

(GIBBERING)

And I think Nkima can help us.

TOLEE: There is our chance. Those two do not know us.

Sorry, sir, no one is allowed in the tower.

Oh? Why not?

There is a very important prisoner in there.

King Aga is with him now.

TOLEE: He must be very important.

ILLDOR: Guard him well.

You are as stubborn as your jungle beasts.

Lead us to the Elephant Graveyard and spare yourself much grief.

Nothing would grieve me worse than to know I betrayed my jungle friends.

You are a fool, Apeman.

But we will change your mind.

(DOOR CLOSES)

You can come out now, Nkima.

(GIBBERING)

How could I not hear you?

You make as much noise as Gorgo, the water buffalo.

{GIBBERING) {TARZAN LAUGHS)

if am only joking.

You move like a puff of smoke, little one.

Did you bring our friends?

(GIBBERING)

Good. Here is what they must do.

(ROARING)

(TRUMPETING)

-We're under attack! Sound the alarm! -(GONGS RINGS)

(TRUMPETING)

(WOOD CREAKING)

(GIBBERING)

(GROWLING)

(GIBBERING)

(TRUMPETING)

(GROWLS)

AGA: So, the traitors have been recaptured.

This time, you shall not escape.

Wrong, King Aga.

This time, you will not escape.

Seize them!

(GROWLING)

TOLEE: { would suggest you speak very softly, Aga,

and very, very gently.

(GIBBERING)

(GROWLING)

Yo, Mangani.

Yo, Tarzan.

I am glad to see you, my friend. I knew you would be here.

(GRUNTS)

Tarzan friend.

(GRUNTING)

Thank you, Mangani.

And now, there is something I must do.

We will never defeat the Great Beast, Ben-Tor, with muscle alone.

We must use our brains, too.

Unk, Tantors, unk!

Pull with all your strength!

(CREAKING)

Good work, it's moving!

(TRUMPETING)

Ben-Tor approaches!

-(TRUMPETING) -Easy, Tantors! Continue your work.

1 will delay the Great Beast.

(TRUMPETING CONTINUES)

(RUMBLING)

Hold, Ben-Tor!

You are no god, but you are dangerous,

and I cannot allow you to cross this bridge again.

(TRUMPETS)

Pull, Tantors! Pull!

(TRUMPETS)

(CRASHES)

No longer will you terrorize innocent people, Ben-Tor!

Now, you will live out your life as you were meant to.

Roaming free but harming no one.

(TRUMPETING)

They only take what is rightfully theirs.

(TRUMPETING)

TOLEE: We understand, Tarzan.

ILLDOR: We shall rebuild Novard.

But this time, no animal shall pay the price!

As it should be.

And now, Nkima, shall we help them start to build again?

(GIBBERING)

What does he say, Tarzan?

TARZAN: Nkima says he wil 1 gladly help, but it will have to wait.

(GIBBERING)

He is hungry again.

(LAUGHING)

Then for Nkima, the rebuilding of Novard will wait until after lunch!

(LAUGHING)
