[Rhythmic drumming]
In Sixteen Hundred Seven
We sailed the open sea
for glory, God, and gold
And the Vingiria Company
for the New World is like heaven
And we'll all be rich and free
On so we have been told
By the Vingiria Company
So we have been told
By the Vingiria Company
[Chorus humming]
[Background chatter]
[Baby crying]
for glory, God, and gold
And the Vingiria Company
-Ready to hoist the cannon ? -Aye!
Hey, look, ls that Smith?
That's him, all right, The old sea dog,
Captain John Smith?
l've heard some amazing stories about him,
Are you coming on this voyage, too?
Course he is, you half-wit!
You can't fight lndians without John Smith!
That's right,
l'm not about to let you boys have all the fun,
On the beaches of Vinginny
Thene's diamonds like debris
Thene's silver rivers flowing
Gold you pick night off a tnee
With a nugget for my Winnie
And another one for me
And all the rest'll go
To the Vingiria Company
It's glory, God, and gold
And the Vingiria Company
[Thunder and dramatic music]
[Men shouting]
SAILOR: Full anchon nelease!

[Grunting]
There, my lucky lads!
[Coughs]
Well,,,that was refreshing,
Well done, Smith,
Of course,,,

-Yes, yes, -Oh, sure, sure,
-Of course we would! -We would!
Absolutely!
[Thunder]
Trouble on deck?
Governor Ratcliffe!
Thomas fell overboard, sir,
Thank heavens he's been successfully retrieved,
-Well done, Smith, -Thank you, sir,
Don't lose heart, men,
lt won't be long before we reach the New World,,,
and remember what awaits us there,,,
-Freedom,,, -[Arf]
-Prosperity,,, -[Arf arf]
the adventure of our lives,
You're the firest crew England has to offer,,,
and nothing-- not wind nor rain,,,
nor a thousand bloodthirsty savages,,,
shall stand in our way,
Carry on, men!
[Cheering]
A stirring oration, sir,
l'm sure the men were most exhilaraaa-ted!
Let us hope so,
l'll need those witless peasants to dig up my gold, won't l?
[Growls]
This New World's going to be great, John,
l'm going to get a pile of gold,,,
build me a big house,,,
and if any lndian tries to stop me, l'll blast him,
You just worry about that fortune of yours, Thomas,
Leave the savages to me,
You think they'll give us much trouble?
Not as much trouble as Smith'll give them,
CREW: We'll kill ounselves an injun
JOHN: On maybe two on thnee
We'ne stalwant men and bold of the
Vingiria Company
THOMAS: What do you suppose the New World will look like?
JOHN: Like all the others, l suppose,
l've seen hundreds of New Worlds, Thomas,
What could possibly be different about this one?
CREW: It's glory, God, and gold
And the Vingiria Company

[Speaking Algonquian]
lt's good to be home,
[Speaking Algonquian]
The Masawomecs are defeated!
With the help of our brothers,,,
our villages are safe again,
[Cheering]
Your return has brought much joy to the village,
Look at all the smiling faces,
Yes, But there's one smiling face l don't see,
Where is my daughter?
You know Pocahontas,
She has her mother's spirit,
She goes wherever the wind takes her,
[Gentle winds blowing]
NAKOMA: Pocahontas!
Your father's back,
Come down here!
He's back, Flit,
[Chitters]

Come on, Meeko!
No! Not that,,,way,

[Squeaks]
[Whining]
[Squeaking]
Pocahontas?
Are you all right?
You'd better be all right,,,
because l'm not coming in after you--
[Cough cough]
Don't you think we're getting,,,
a little old for these games?
[Laughing]
[Coughing]
[Chittering]
[Squeaks]
[Boing]
POCAHONTAS: Help me tunn this thing oven:
What were you doing up there?
Thinking, Meeko!
About the dream again? Have you figured it out yet?
l know it means something,
l just don't know what,
You should ask your father about it,
Maybe l should,
Come on, Flit,
Quit playing arourd, We have to get back,
[Squeak]
POWHATAN: :::faced a detenmined enemy:
The battle lasted fnom the nising of the sun:::
until the evening shadow fell,
Our warriors fought with courage,,,
but none as bravely as Kocoum,,,
for he attacked with the fierce strength of the bear,
He has pnoven himself to be:::
-He is so handsome! -l especially love the smile,
POWHATAN: :::destnoying eveny enemy in his path:
Tonight, we will feast in his honor,
[Whooping]
-My daughter, -Wingapo, Father,
Seeing you gives me great joy,
l'm so glad you've come home safely,
Come with me, We have much to talk about,
l want to hear everything you have been doing,
[Chirping]
Father, for many nights now,,,
l've been having a very strange dream,
l think it's telling me something's about to happen,,,
something exciting,
Yes, Something exciting is about to happen,
Really? What is it?
Kocoum has asked to seek your hand in marriage,
Marry Kocoum?
[Chitters]
Paah!
l told him it would make my heart soar,
But he's so,,,serious,
My daughter, Kocoum will make a fine husband,
He is loyal and stnong and will build you:::
a good house with stundy walls:
With him, you will be safe fnom hanm:
Father, l think my dream is pointing me down another path,
This is the right path for you,
But why can't l choose--Oh!
[Hiccup]
[Laughs]
Pocahontas, come with me,
You are the daughter of the chief,
lt is time to take your place among our people,
Even the wild mountain stream,,,
must some day join the big river,
As the niven cuts his path
Though the niven's pnoud and stnong
He will choose the smoothest course
That's why rivers live so long,
They'ne steady
As the steady beating dnum
Your mother wore this for our wedding,
lt was her dream to see you wear it at your own,
lt suits you,
He wants me to be steady,
Like the river,
[Meeko screeches]
But it's not steady at all,
What I love most about rivers is
You can't step in the same niven twice
The waten's always changing
Always flowing
But people, I guess, can't live like that
We all must pay a pnice
To be safe, we lose our chance of even knowing
What's anound the niven bend
Waiting just around the niven bend?
I look once mone
Just around the niven bend
Beyond the shone
Whene the gulls fly free
Don't know what for
What I dneam the day might send
Just around the niven bend
for me
Coming for me
I feel it thene beyond those tnees
And night behind these watenfalls
Eek eek eek!
Can I ignone that sound of distant dnumming
for a handsome, stundy husband
Who builds handsome, stundy walls
And never dneams that something might be coming
Just around the niven bend?
Just around the niven bend
I look once mone
Just around the niven bend
Beyond the shone
Somewhene past the sea
Don't know what for
Why do all my dneams extend
Just around the niven bend?
Just around the niven bend
Should I choose the smoothest counse
Steady as the beating dnum?
Should I manny Kocoum?
Is all my dneaming at an end?
On do you still
Wait for me, dneam given?
Just around the niven
Bend?
[Chitters]
GRANDMO THER WILLOW: Is that my Pocahontas?
Grandmother Willow, l need to talk to you,
Good morning, child,
l was hoping you'd visit today,
Oh! Your mother's necklace!
That's what l wanted to talk to you about,
My father wants me to marry Kocoum,
Kocoum? But he's so serious!
l know, My father thinks it's the right path for me,
But lately, l've been having this dream, and l think it's--
Oh, a dream! Let's hear all about it!
[Chittering, tweeting]
Quiet! Phew!
Quiet!
[Ribbit]
[Gulps]
Now, child, you were saying?
Well, l'm running through the woods,,,
and then right there in front of me is an arrow,
As l look at it, it starts to spin,
A spinning arrow? How unusual!
Yes, it spins faster and faster and faster,,,
until suddenly--it stops,
Hmm, Well, it seems to me this spinning arrow,,,
is pointing you down your path,
But, Grandmother Willow, what is my path?
How am l ever going to find it?
Ha ha! Your mother asked me the very same question,
She did? What did you tell her?
l told her to listen,
All around you are spirits, child,
They live in the earth, the water, the sky,
lf you listen, they will guide you,
CHORUS, UNDER WIND: Ay ay ay ya
l hear the wind,
GRANDMO THER WILLOW: Yes: What is it telling you ?
l don't understand,
Que que na-to-na
You will undenstand
Listen with your heant
You will undenstand
Let it bneak upon you
Like a wave upon the sand
lt's saying something's coming,
Strange clouds,,,
Listen with your heant
You will undenstand
[Screeches]
[Chitters]
What do you see?
Clouds,
Stnange clouds:
RATCLIFFE: Look at it, Wiggins:::
an entine New World chock full of gold:::
just waiting for me,
And scores of adventures waiting for us, right, Percy?
Do you think we'll meet some savages?
lf we do, we shall be sure to give them,,,
a proper English greeting,
Oh! Gift baskets!
Hmph! And he came so highly recommended,
JOHN: It's penfect, Govennon:
The water's deep enough, We can pull right up to shore,
Hey, there, Percy,
[Growls]
Very well then, Give the order,
Already done, sir,
l've got a crew assembled, and they're ready to go,
About the natives,,,
l'm counting on you to make sure,,,
those filthy heathens don't disrupt our mission,
lf they're anything like the savages l've fought before,
it's nothing l can't handle,
Right, That'll be all, Smith, There's a good man,
See ya, Percy,
[Grrr]
The men like Smith, don't they?
[Growls]
l've never been a,,,popular man,
l like you,
And don't think l don't know,,,
what those back-stabbers at court say about me,
Oh, yes, all that talk about being,,,
a pathetic social climber who's failed at everything--
l'm well aware that this is my last chance for glory,
But mark my words, Wiggins--
when King James sees the gold these peasants unearth,,,
success will be mine at last,
BEN: Wake up! Shake a leg!
lt's incredible,
And it's all ours,
l've never seen anything like it,
lt can look like Ratcliffe's knickers, for all l care,,,
just as long as l get off this stinking boat!
Come on, men,
We didn't come all this way just to look at it,
[Birds calling]
[Owl hoots]
[Scrapes]
BEN: Keep it taut, lads: Keep it taut! Steady!
All right now--tie her off!
Here, John, tie off this end,
John? John?
THOMAS: What ane you doing up thene?
Getting a better look,

Well,,,you're a strange-looking fellow,
You hungry?
Here you go, lt's a biscuit,
lt's food, Well, sort of,
You like it, eh?
Try eating it for four months straight,
You got a friend back there?
Hey--what the--what-- Ha ha! Watch out,
[Bugle blows in distance]
No--Get that--Look out!
John, you better get down here!
The governor's coming ashore,
All right, All right, l'm leaving,
[Squeaks]
[Overlapping chatter]
MAN: They have hain on thein faces like dogs:
My brothers, we must know more about these visitors,
Kekata, what do you see?
[Chanting]
[Speaking Algonquian]
These are not men like us,,,
but strange beasts with bodies that shine like the sun,,,
and weapons that spout fire and thunder,
They pnowl the earth like navenous wolves:::
consuming evenything in thein path:
[Baby cries]
Great Powhatan, l will lead our warriors,,,
to the river and attack,
We will destroy these invaders,,,
the way we destroyed the Masawomecs,
Kocoum, in that battle we knew how to fight our enemy,,,
but these pale visitors are strange to us,
Take some men to the river to observe them,
Let us hope they do not intend to stay,
l hereby claim this land and all its riches,,,
in the name of His Majesty, King James l,,,
and do so name this settlement Jamestown,
[Men cheering]
Bravo! Bravo! Beautifully spoken, sir!
Hurry now, Percy,
We must be all squeaky clean for the New World,
[Chittering]
[Splash]
[Growling]
[Ruff ruff ruff]
[Splat]
Captain Smith,,,
it appears l've selected the perfect location, eh?
Not a savage in sight,
Just because we don't see them,,,
doesn't mean they're not out there, sir,
Well, then perhaps you should venture forth,,,
and determine their whereabouts, hmm?
lf there are any lndians out there, l'll find them,
Now, gentlemen, to work,
You men, get the ship unloaded,
You men build the fort,
The rest of you,,, break out the shovels!
lt's time to start digging!
BOTH: Digging?
Of course!
Let's not forget what the Spanish found,,,
when they came to the New World,
Gold! Mountains of it,
Why, for years, they've been ravaging the New World,,,
of its most precious resources,
But now,,,

The gold of Contez

My name is Pocahontas,

RATCLlFFE: That's it, Keep at it, men,
Keep digging, lt's gotta be here somewhere,
[Bird call]
There's 30 more of them down by the ridge,
That makes more than a hundred!
Anything yet?
Nothing but rocks and dirt, sir,
How long are we going to keep digging like this, sir?
Aye! We're slaving away, busting our backs day and night,
For king and country, l know, l know,
And l'm sure you're fatigued,
Wiggins!
RATCLIFFE: Wiggins!
Coming!
Dispose of this,
Who's a good doggie?
Hmm?
Who's a good doggie?
Fetch, boy!
[Yelps]
Savages! lt's an ambush! Arm yourselves!

Where's that blasted Smith when l need him?
Namontac!
Back to the village!

Everyone back to camp,
Get the rest of the cannons ashore,,,
and finish building the fort!
Aye, Governor!
And you,,,

A man's not a man unless he knows how to shoot,
[Kekata chanting]
These beasts invade our shores,,,
and now this,
This wound is strange to me,
[Groans]
We will fight this enemy,,,
but we cannot do it alone,
Kocoum, send messengers to every village in our nation,
We will call on our brothers to help us fight,
These white men are dangerous!
No one is to go near them,
JOHN: It's called a helmet:
Helmet,

[Squeaks]
This is how we say hello, Wingapo,
And how we say good-bye,,,Ah-nah,

[Squeaks]
Yeah, l remember you,
Flit just doesn't like strangers,
But l'm not a stranger anymore,
Stubborn little fellow, isn't he?
-Pbbt! -Very stubborn,
Hey!
Meeko! Come back here,
Don't worry, He can't hurt it,
Hey! What are you doing?
Meeko, bring that back,
No, it's all right, He can keep it,
Call it a gift,
[Banging]
What was that?
-My compass, -Compass?

But it's all right, l'll get another one in London,
London? ls that your village?
Yes, lt's a very big village,
What's it like?
Well, it's got streets filled with carriages,,,
bridges over the rivers,,,
and buildings as tall as trees,
l'd like to see those things,
-You will, -How?
We're going to build them here,
We'll show your people how to use this land properly,,,
how to make the most of it,
Make the most of it?
Yes, We'll build roads and decent houses--
Our houses are fine,
You think that only because you don't know any better,
Wait a minute, Don't take it that--
Hey--hey! Wait!
[Squeak squeak squeak]
Wait! There's so much we can teach you,
We've improved the lives of savages all over the world,
Savages?!
Not that you're a savage,
-Just my people, -No,
Listen, that's not what l meant,
-Let me explain, -Let go!
No, l'm not letting you leave,
Look, don't do this,
Savage is just a word, you know?
A term for,,, people who are uncivilized,
Like me,
Well, when l say uncivilized,,,
what l mean is--is--
Whoa--uh-aah--uh!
Oof!
[Clang]
What you mean is,,,not like you,
You think I'm an ignonant savage
And you've been so many places
I guess it must be so
But still, I cannot see
If the savage one is me
How can thene be so much
That you don't know?
You don't know
[Music playing]
You think you own whateven land you land on
The earth is just a dead thing you can claim
But I know eveny nock and tnee and cneatune
Has a life, has a spinit
Has a name
You think the only people who ane people
Ane the people who look and think like you
But if you walk the footsteps of a stnangen
You'll leann things
You never knew you never knew
Have you even heand the wolf cny
To the blue conn moon
On ask the gninning bobcat why he gninned?
Can you sing with all the voices
Of the mountain ?
Can you paint with all the colons
Of the wind?
Can you paint with all the colons
Of the wind?
Come nun the hidden pine tnails
Of the forest
Come taste the sun-sweet bennies
Of the earth
Come noll in all the riches all around you
And for once, never wonden what they're worth
The nainstonm and the niven
Ane my brothers
The henon and the otten
Ane my fniends
And we ane all connected to each other
In a cincle in a hoop that never ends
How high
Does the sycamone grow?
If you cut it down
Then you'll never know
And you'll
Never hean the wolf cny
To the blue conn moon
for whethen we ane white on coppen-skinned
We need to sing with all the voices
Of the mountain
We need to paint with all the colons
Of the wind
You can own the earth, and still
All you'll own is earth until
You can paint
With all the colons
Of the wind
[Distant drumbeat]
What is it?
The drums, They mean trouble,

-l want to see you again, -l can't,
-Please, don't leave, -l'm sorry,

[Thunder rolls]
BEN: All night! This one's neady to hoist!
LON: Two on each side: Ready now? Push!
Watch it! lt's slipping,
Come on, lads, it's only a little picket fence,
-Steady! Steady! -Thene you go:
That'll keep everything out, eh, John?
Something wrong, John?
What?
You've been awfully quiet the last few days,
Oh, he's just mad that he missed all the action,
Ah, don't worry, John,
You'll get your chance to deal with the lndians,
Yeah, We'll take care of them,,,
like we did last time, eh, mates?
We shot ourselves an injun
On maybe two on thnee
All right, you howling nutter, get to work,
Come on, Ben, lt's just a little fun,
Oh, sure! We're having loads of fun, right?
Look at us-- no gold, no food,,,
while Ratcliffe sits up in his tent all day,,,
happy as a clam,
l'm doomed!
l should be wallowing in riches by now,,,
and l haven't found as much as a speck,
Think: Think!
It's got to be around hene somewhene:
W hoeree coulcd t boe?
[Playing ''London Bridge ls Falling Down'']
I've mined the forests and the hills:::

Grr!
[Yipping]
Why can't l find it? What am l overlooking?
-WIGGINS: Aah! -Oh!
l--l--
l made it myself!
Take that silly--
Of course, The lndians,
Wiggins, why do you think,,,
those insolent heathens attacked us?
Because we invaded their land,,,
and cut down their trees and dug up their earth?
lt's the gold! They have it,,,
and they don't want us to take it from them,
l'll just have to take it by force then, won't l?
You there! Where's Captain Smith?
Well, he's,,,gone,
Aye, Your singing must've scared him off,
Then go get him, for heaven's sake!
What if we run into the lndians?
That's what guns are for,
Now arm yourselves and get moving!

POWHATAN: Pocahontas:
You should be inside the village,
We'll be all right,
We're gathering food for when the warriors arrive,
Don't go far,
Now is not the time to be running off,
Yes, Father,
When l see you wear that necklace,,,
you look just like your mother,
l miss her,
But she is still with us,
Whenever the wind moves through the trees,,,
l feel her presence,
Our people look to her for wisdom and strength,
Someday, they will look to you as well,
l would be honored by that,
You shouldn't be out here alone,
l'll send for Kocoum,
All right, what is it?
-What? -You're hiding something,

Pocahontas, you can tell me, l promise,

-Pocahontas! -Oh!
Pocahontas!
Please! Don't say anything,
Quick! This way!
-But-- -Nakoma,
Where is Pocahontas?
l--l haven't seen her,
[Sighs] Pocahontas can't keep running off,
lt's dangerous out there,
Tell her that, She listens to you,
Heh! Sure she does,
JOHN: This place is incnedible:
And to think we came all this way,,,
just to dig it up for gold,
POCAHONTAS: Gold?
-Hey, Meeko, -What's gold?
You know, it's yellow,
lt comes out of the ground, lt's really valuable,
Oh! Here, we have lots of it,
Gold,
No, no! Gold is this,
Hmm, There's nothing like that around here,
-No gold? -Not that l've seen,
Heh heh! All this way for nothing,
Those boys are in for a big surprise,
-Will they leave? -Some of them might,
Will you go home?
lt's not like l have much of a home to go back to,
l've never really belonged anywhere,
You could belong here,
[Voice singing on the wind]
What was that?!
Did you see something?
No, No, l just--l--
l didn't see anything, Did l?
Look again,
Let it bneak upon you
Like a wave upon the sand
Hello, John Smith,
Pocahontas, that tree is talking to me,
Then you should talk back,
Don't be fnightened, young man:
My bark is worse than my bite,
Say something,
What do you say to a tree?
Anything you want,
So, uh,,,
Come closer, John Smith,
He has a good soul,
And he's handsome, too!
-Oh, l like her, -l knew you would,
BEN: Smith!
Smith, where are you, mate?
We can't let them see us,
Quick! Over here,
This place gives me the creeps,
Savages could be hiding anywhere,
Aye, if you spot one, don't ask questions, Just shoot,
-Whoa! -Oh!
Watch your feet, you big oaf!
lt wasn't me! lt was the tree,
Oh, of course!
The tree just felt like lifting its roots--
Let's get out of here,
-Ow! Run! -Ow!
But what about Smith?
He's a big lad! He can take care of himself!
l'm glad you're on our side,
There's still some snap in these old vines,
l better get back before they send the whole camp after me,
When will l see you again?
Meet me tonight, right here,
Well! l haven't had this much excitement in 200 years,
What am l doing? l shouldn't be seeing him again,
l mean, l want to see him again,
Who wouldn't? l want to see him again,
But still, something inside,,,
is telling me it's the right thing,
Perhaps it's your dream,
My dream? Do you think he's the one,,,
the spinning arrow was pointing to?
Hmm!
The warriors are here!
[Crowd shouting]
Pocahontas, are you crazy? What were you doing?
-There you are! -Kocoum!
Look at them! Now we have enough warriors,,,
to destroy those white demons!
Now that we are joined by our brothers,,,
we will defeat this enemy,
Father, l need to speak with you,
Not now, my daughter, The council is gathering,
We don't have to fight them, There must be a better way,
Sometimes our paths are chosen for us,
But maybe we should try talking to them,
They do not want to talk,
But if one of them did want to talk,,,
you would listen to him, wouldn't you?
-Pocahontas-- -Wouldn't you?
Of course l would, but it is not that simple,
Nothing is simple anymore,
[Twig snaps] Uh-oh!
Huh?! [Barks]
[Growling]
[Chitters]
Oof!
[Howls]
Easy, Thomas, it's me,
Oh, John! l could've killed you,
Not aiming like that, you couldn't,
Keep both eyes open when you shoot,
You'll see twice as well,
Smith! There you are!
We were looking all over for you,
Smith! Where have you been?
l was out scouting the terrain, sir,
Excellent, Then you must know the lndians' whereabouts,
We'll need that information for the battle,
What battle?
We will eliminate these savages once and for all,
No! You can't do that!
Oh, can't l?
Look, we don't have to fight them,
-John, what's gotten into you? -l met one of them,
-You what?! -A savage?
They're not savages, They can help us,
They know the land,
They know how to navigate the rivers,
[Trills]
-And look, lt's food, -What is it?
lt's better than hardtack and gruel, that's for sure,
l like gruel,
They don't want to feed us, you ninnies!
They want to kill us! All of us!
They've got our gold,,,
and they'll do anything to keep it!
But there is no gold,
No gold?
And l suppose your little lndian friend told you this?
Yes,
Lies! Lies! All of it! Murderous thieves,
There's no room for their kind in civilized society,
But this is their land!
This is my land! l make the laws here,
And l say anyone who so much as looks at an lndian,,,
without killing him on sight,,,
will be tried for treason and hanged,
[Coyote howls]
Pocahontas!
-Nakoma, -Don't go out there,
l lied for you once, Don't ask me to do it again,
l have to do this,
-He's one of them! -You don't know him,
lf you go out there,,,
you'll be turning your back on your own people,
l'm trying to help my people,
Pocahontas, please, You're my best friend,
l don't want you to get hurt,
l won't, l know what l'm doing,
Pocahontas, no!
BEN: Ratcliffe wouldn't take us:::
halfway around the World for nothing:
LON: But what if Smith is night?
W hat fthoeree s no golcd?
MAN: lf you ask me,,,
Ratcliffe's been lying to us since we left London,
Listen to you, you bunch of idiots,
Those savages didn't attack us for nothing,
They're hiding something,
LON: If they do have the gold:::
I neckon we'll have to fight them:
Either too hot or too cold,
I haven't been comfortable since we got hene:
GU ARD: Me, too: I'm itching a lot:
[Gasps]
-Follow him, -Yes, Governor,
l want to know where he's sneaking off to,
Yes, sir,
And if you happen to see any lndians,,,
shoot them,
Oh, Thomas, you've been a slipshod sailor,,,
and a poor excuse for a soldier,
Don't disappoint me again,
-Kocoum, -What is it?
lt's Pocahontas,
What's wrong? ls she all right?
l think she's in trouble,
The earth is trembling, child, What's happened?
The warriors are here,
-Pocahontas, -John!
Listen to me,
My men are planning to attack your people,
You've got to warn them,
Maybe it's not too late to stop this,
You have to come with me and talk to my father,
Pocahontas, talking isn't going to do any good,
l've already tried talking to my men,,,
but everything about this land has them spooked,
[Distorted howling]
That's the strangest creature l've ever seen!
[Yipping and yelping]
Percy?!
Easy, Percy! Come here!
Meeko, come back!
You see what l mean?
Once two sides want to fight, nothing can stop them,
Come here both of you!
lt's all right, He's a friend,
Bad! Bad dog! Sit!
[Laughs]
-What ane you doing? Meeko! -Pency, get back hene!
What ane you doing? Stop that!
All right, that's enough!
[Yelps]
It's enough to make your sap boil:
Now then, there's something l want to show you, Look!
The ripples,
What about them?
GRANDMO THER WILLOW: So small at finst:::
then look how they grow:
But someone has to start them,
They're not going to listen to us,
Young man, sometimes the right path,,,
is not the easiest one,
Don't you see? Only when the fighting stops:::
can you be togethen:
All right, Let's go talk to your father,
[Chirps]
[Squeaks]
[Breathing heavily]
[Shouts battle cry]
[Gasps]
Kocoum, no!
Kocoum!
Leave him alone! Unh! Unh! Unh!
Grr!
Unh!
Kocoum, stop!
Both eyes open,
Unh,
[Gasps]
-Thomas! -ls he--
You killed him,
-l thought that-- -Get away from him!
Pocahontas, it won't help! He was only--
He killed him!
[Warriors shouting in distance]
Thomas, get out of here!
Get out of here!
[Warriors shouting]
[Grunting]
[Whispering in Algonquian]
[Percy whimpering]
[Whimpers]
[Trills]
[Men muttering, woman sobbing]
Who did this?
Pocahontas was out in the woods,
Kocoum went to find her and this white man attacked them,
Your weapons are strong,,,
but now our anger is stronger,
At sunrise, he will be the first to die!
But, Father!
l told you to stay in the village,
You disobeyed me,
You have shamed your father!
l was only trying to help,
Because of your foolishness, Kocoum is dead!
Take him away!
Kocoum was just coming to protect me,
Pocahontas,,,
l sent Kocoum after you,
l was worried about you,
l thought l was doing the right thing,
All this happened because of me,
And now l'll never see John Smith again,
Come with me,
Pocahontas wants to look into the eyes,,,
of the man who killed Kocoum,
Be quick,
Pocahontas,
l'm so sorry,
For what? This?
l've gotten out of worse scrapes than this,
Can't think of any right now, but--
lt would've been better if we'd never met,
None of this would've happened,
Pocahontas, look at me,
l'd rather die tomorrow,,,
than live a hundred years without knowing you,
If I never knew you
If I never felt this love
I would have no inkling of
How pnecious life can be
If I never held you
I would never have a clue
How at last I'd find in you
The missing pant of me
In this World so full of fean
Full of nage and lies
I can see the tnuth so clean
In your eyes
So dny your eyes
And I'm so gnateful to you
I'd have lived my whole life through
Lost foreven
If I never knew you
I thought our love would be so beautiful
Somehow we'd make
The whole World bnight
I never knew that fean and hate
Could be so stnong
All they'd leave us wene these whispens
In the night
But still my heant is saying we wene night
for if I never knew you
JOHN: Thene's no moment I negnet
POCAHONTAS: If I never knew this love
JOHN: Since the moment that we met
POCAHONTAS: I would have no inkling of
JOHN: If our time has gone too fast
POCAHONTAS: How pnecious life can be
JOHN: I've lived at last
Pocahontas,
l can't leave you,
You never will,
No matter what happens to me,,,
l'll always be with you, Forever,
And I'm so gnateful to you
I'd have lived my whole life through
Empty as the sky
Never knowing why
Lost foreven
If I never knew you
THOMAS: Help! Somebody help!
Help! Help!
Easy, lad, What is it?
lt's Smith! They got him!
-Who got him? -The savages!
They captured him, dragged him off!
-Where'd they take him? -They headed north,
-How many wene thene? -At least a dozen:
BEN: Filthy beasts!
-Oof! -lt's perfect, Wiggins!
l couldn't have planned this better myself,
The gold is as good as mine,
We've got to save him! He'd do the same for any of us,
Thomas is right! We've got to do something,
RATCLIFFE: And so we shall:
l told you those savages couldn't be trusted,
Smith tried to befriend them,,,
and look what they've done to him!
But now l say it's time to rescue our courageous comrade,
At daybreak, we attack!

This is the path l choose, Father,

[Gentle winds blowing]
My daughter speaks with a wisdom beyond her years,
We have all come here with anger in our hearts,,,
but she comes with courage and understanding,
From this day forward,,,
if there is to be more killing,,,
it will not start with me,
Release him,
Now is our chance! Fire!
-No, -What?
-They let him go! -They don't want to fight!

Fine! l'll settle this myself,
JOHN: No!

You shot him!
He stepped right into it!

BEN: Smith was night all along:
LON: We never should've listened to you:
-Get the gun! -Traitors!
Unhand me! l say, how dare you!
Put him in chains!

And gag him as well!
RATCLIFFE: Uhh!
[Seagulls cawing]

The sooner he gets back to England, the better,
Let's hope the wind is with him,

Any minute now,
Just loading the last bit of cargo,

[Muffled] How dare you! Untie me at once!

[Sighs]
The ship's almost ready,
We'd better get you on board, We'll lose the tide,
No, not yet, She said she'd be here,
Look,
Going back is his only chance,
He'll die if he stays here,
Here,

What pain?
