Friend Owl: Well, I don't believe I’ve ever seen a more likely looking pair of fawns. Prince Bambi ought to be might proud.

Faline: Bambi! Bambi, where are you?

Bambi: Faline! Faline!

The Pheasant 1: Listen! He's coming!

The Pheasant 2: Hush!

The Pheasant 3: Be quiet!

The Pheasant 1: He's coming closer!

The Pheasant 3: Be calm! Don't get excited.

The Pheasant 1: We'd better fly.

The Pheasant 2: No! No! Don't fly. Whatever you do, don't fly.

The Pheasant 1: [She flaps her wings and flies into the air above the weeds] He's almost here! I CAN'T STAND IT ANY LONGER!!

Bambi: Faline!

Faline: Bambi!

Friend Owl: [Flower jumps into Thumper's lap in shock; mimes walking on the air] Nearly everybody gets twitterpated in the springtime. For example, you're walking along, minding your own business, then, you're looking neither to the left, nor to the right, when all of the sudden, you run smack into a pretty face. WHOO-WHOO! You'll begin to get weak in the knees, your head's in a whirl! And then you feel light as feather, and, before you know it, you're walking on air! And then, you know what? You're knocked for a loop! And you completely lose your head!

Thumper: Gosh, that's awful!

Flower: Gee whiz!

Bambi: Terrible!

Friend Owl: [looks at Flower] And that ain't all, it could happen to anybody. So, you'd better be careful. It can happen to you, and you! Yes, it can even happen to you.

Thumper: Well, it's not gonna happen to me.

Bambi: Me neither.

Flower: Me neither.

Faline: He's kinda bashful, isn't he, mama?

Ena: Well, maybe he wouldn't be, if you'd say "hello".

Thumper's sisters: Good morning, Prince Bambi!

Thumper's mother: Good morning, young prince.

Young Bambi: Hello. What are you eating?

Thumper's sisters: Clovers. It's awfully good!

Thumper: [Bambi grabs a bunch of clovers with leaves and stems on them; Thumper goes to eat the blossom until his mother call him] It's delicious! Why don't you try some? No, no! Not that green stuff! Just eat the blossoms! That's the good stuff!

Thumper's mother: [Thumper stops] Thumper!

Thumper: Yes, mama?

Thumper's mother: What did your father tell you?

Thumper: About what?

Thumper's mother: About eating the blossoms, and leaving the greens.

Thumper: [clears throat; to Bambi; whispers] Oh, that one. Eating greens is a special treat. It makes long ears and great big feet. But it sure is awful stuff to eat. I made that last part up myself.

Young Bambi: Mother, what are we going to do today?

Bambi's mother: I'm going to take you to the meadow.

Young Bambi: Meadow? What's the meadow?

Bambi's mother: It's a very wonderful place.

Young Bambi: Then, why haven't we been there before?

Bambi's mother: You weren't big enough.

Young Bambi: Mother, you know what?

Bambi's mother: What?

Young Bambi: We're not the only deer in the forest.

Bambi's mother: Where did you hear that?

Young Bambi: Thumper told me.

Bambi's mother: Well, he's right. There are many deer in the forest besides us.

Young Bambi: Then, why don't I ever see them?

Bambi's mother: You will. Sometimes.

Young Bambi: On the meadow?

Bambi's mother: [Bambi and his mother arrive at the meadow] Perhaps. Hush now. We're almost there.

Young Bambi: [becomes excited; starts running out] The meadow!

Bambi's mother: [stops him; Bambi hides in the bush] Wait! Bambi, wait! You must never rush out on the meadow. There might be danger. Out there, we're unprotected. The meadow is wide and open, and there are no trees or bushes to hide us. So, we have to be very careful. Wait here. I'll go out first. And if the meadow is safe, I'll call you.

The Great Prince of the Forest: [to Bambi] It is Man. He is here again. There are many this time. We must go deep into the forest. Hurry! Follow me!

The Great Prince of the Forest: [to Bambi after his mother died at the hands of Man] Your mother can't be with you anymore. Come, my son.

Bambi's Mother: [her last words before she dies] FASTER, FASTER BAMBI! DON'T LOOK BACK! KEEP RUNNING! KEEP RUNNING!

Bambi's Mother: Everyone respects him. He is the oldest deer to have lived. He is very brave and very wise. That's why he is known as the great Prince of the Forest.

Bambi's Mother: You must never rush out on the meadow. There might be danger. Out there, we're unprotected. The meadow is wide and open, and there are no trees or bushes to hide us. So we have to be very careful. Wait here. I'll go out first. And if the meadow is safe, I'll call you.

Thumper: [after thumping his foot by a old trunk; his echo comes on 'call me Thumper'; his echo comes on 'Thumper!'] I'm thumpin'. That’s why they call me Thumper! Thumper!

Thumper: [to Bambi, aloud; looks at his mother and turns to Bambi; whispering] Eating greens is a special treat. It makes long ears and great big feet. But it sure is awful stuff to eat. I made that last part up myself.

Thumper: If you can't say somethin nice.., don't say nothin at all.
