Most scenes with: Powhatan (5), John Smith (2), Ben (2)
These are not men like us, but strange beasts with bodies that shine like the sun, and weapons that spout fire and thunder. They prowl the earth like ravenous wolves, consuming everything in their path.
It can look like Ratcliffe's knickers, for all I care, just as long as we get off this stinkin' boat!
I'd help you to dig, boys, but I've got this crick in me spine.
They're not like you and me, which means they must be evil!!!
Your return has brought much joy to the village. Look at all the smiling faces.
Yes. But there is one smiling face I don't see. Where is my daughter?
You know Pocahontas. She has her mother's spirit. She goes wherever the wind takes her.
Did you see their skin? Pale and sickly.
They have hair on their faces like dogs.
My brothers, we must know more about these visitors. Kekata, what do you see?
These are not men like us, but strange beasts with bodies that shine like the sun and weapons that spout fire and thunder. They prowl the earth like ravenous wolves consuming everything in their path.
Great Powhatan. I will lead our warriors to the river and attack. We will destroy these invaders the way we destroyed the Massawomecks.
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.
I hereby claim this land and all its riches in the name of His Majesty, King James the First, and do so name this settlement Jamestown.
Bravo! Bravo! Beautifully spoken, sir. [to Percy in the bath] Hurry now, Percy. We must be all squeaky clean for the New World.
Captain Smith! It appears I'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?
If there are any Indians out there, I'll find them.
Now, gentlemen, to work. You men, get the ship unloaded.
Right, sir.
You men build the fort. The rest of you... Break out the shovels! It's time to start digging.
Digging?
Why, 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... It's our turn. [singing] The gold of Cortéz / The jewels of Pizarro / Will seem like mere trinkets / By this time tomorrow / The gold we find here / Will dwarf them by far / Oh, with all ya got in ya, boys / Dig up Virginia, boys / Mine, boys, mine, every mountain / And dig, boys, dig 'til ya drop / Grab a pick, boys / Quick, boys / Shove in a shovel / Uncover those lovely / Pebbles that sparkle and shine / It's gold / And it's mine, mine, mine
There'll be heaps of it / And I'll be on top of the heap / My rivals back home / It's not that I'm bitter / But think how they'll squirm / When they see how I glitter / The ladies in court / Will be all a-twitter / The king will reward me / He'll knight me / No! Lord me / It's mine, mine, mine / For the taking / It's mine, boys / Mine me that gold / With those nuggets dug / It's glory they'll give me / My dear friend King Jimmy / Will probably build me a shrine / When all of the gold / Is mine
All of my life I have searched for land like this one / A wilder more challenging country I couldn't design / Hundreds of dangers await and I don't plan to miss one / In a land I can claim, a land I can tame / The greatest adventure is mine
Make the mounds big, boys / I'd help you to dig, boys / But I’ve got this crick in me spine
Mine
These beasts invade our shores, and now this.
This wound is strange to me.
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. [Steps outside the tent.] These White Men are dangerous! No one is to go near them.
Help! Somebody, help! Help! Help!
Easy, lad. What is it?
It's Smith! They got him!
Who got him?
The savages!
Savages?
They captured him, dragged him off!
Where'd they take him?
They headed North!
How many were there?
I don't know, at least a dozen.
Filthy beasts!
It's perfect, Wiggins! I 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.
And so we shall! I told you those savages couldn't be trusted. Smith tried to befriend them, and look what they've done to him. But now I say it's time to rescue our courageous comrade. At daybreak, we attack!
What can you expect / From filthy little heathens / Here's what you get when races are diverse / Their skin's a hellish red / They’re only good when dead / They're vermin as they said and worse / They're
Drive them to our shore / They're not like you and me / Which means they must be evil / We must sound the drums of war
They're savages, savages / Dirty shrieking devils / Now we sound the drums of war
This is what we feared / The Paleface is a demon / The only thing they feel at all is greed
Beneath that milky hide / There's emptiness inside
I wonder if they even bleed
They're different from us / Which means they can't be trusted
They're savages, savages / First we deal with this one / Then we sound the drums of war
Savages, savages
Savages, savages
Savages, savages / Barely even human / Now we sound the drums of war
They're going to kill him at sunrise, Grandmother Willow.
You have to stop them.
I can't.
Child, remember your dream?
I was wrong, Grandmother Willow. I followed the wrong path. I feel so lost. [Meeko gives her John's compass.] The compass? Spinning arrow!
It's the arrow from your dream!
I was right! It was pointing to him. [Sunlight hits her face.] Sunrise!
It's not too late, child. Let the spirits of the earth guide you! You know your path, child... Now follow it!
This will be the morning / [spoken] Bring out the prisoner!
We will see them dying in the dust
I don't know what I can do / Still I know I've got to try
Now we make them pay
Now without a warning
Now we leave them blood and bone and dust
It's them or us
They're just a bunch of filthy, stinking / Savages, savages / Demons, devils
Savages, savages / What are we waiting for? / Destroy their evil race / Until there's not a trace left
We will sound the drums of war / Savages, savages / Now we sound the drums of war / Now we see what comes / Of trying to be chums / (Now we sound the drums of)
War!
No! If you kill him, you'll have to kill me too.
Daughter, stand back.
I won't! I love him, Father. Look around you! This is where the path of hatred has brought us. This is the path I choose, Father. What will yours be?
My daughter speaks with the 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 killin', it will not start with me. Release him.
Now's our chance! [draws sword] Fire!
No!
What!?
They let him go!
They don't want to fight!
It's a trick! Don't you see!? FIRE!!! [The Englishmen scowl at him. Governor Ratcliffe wavers for a moment, then throws his sword to the ground and grabs a musket] Fine! I'll settle this myself!
John! [to Governor Ratcliffe as Pocahontas rushes to John Smith's side] You shot him!
We never should have listened to you!
Get the gun! [The men swarm over Governor Ratcliffe and restrain him]
Traitors! Unhand me, I say! How dare you!
I'll see you all HANGED for this!
And gag him as well! [Thomas looks up at John as Pocahontas and Chief Powhatan tend him worried rushes to him]
