| In a landscape of acacia treas, dark shadows, and a white sun
|
| A girl walks and sings in the savanna
|
| Attracted by her bright and joyful song
|
| Ines, Genevieve and Anne, three green-eyed antelope
|
| Reveal themselves under a cloud of dust, and invite her to their home
|
| That night, around the campfire, the antelope talk about the beauty of the
|
| plains
|
| But warn the girl that she should beware of a terrible menace that threatens
|
| the savanna
|
| Every night, a ruthless tiger chooses a victim
|
| And steals their most precious gift
|
| They urge her to pay head to the sounds of the night
|
| And be careful to protect her unique voice
|
| The following morning, the antelope sadly discover
|
| That Inez has lost her speed
|
| The next day, Genevieve has lost her dreams
|
| The day after that, Anne has lost her courage
|
| Repulsed by the tiger’s avarice, the girl decides that tonight
|
| She will be the one to face him
|
| Fearless of losing her voice, she sets out in the night
|
| To confront the creature;
|
| Le Tigre Malin |
