"Lady" is an honorary title. Although you are well-respected in Arendelle by the royal family, their staff, and citizens, you have no authority. Sorry.

Once upon a time...

A man shoved his saw into the ice, rhythmically cutting into it with the rest of the ice harvesters.

Ice Harvesters:
Born of cold and winter air and mountain rain combining...
This icy force both foul and fair has a frozen heart worth mining...

Men shoved their picks into it, breaking it apart and forking it out of the lake.

Ice Harvesters:
So cut through the heart
Cold and clear
Strike for love and strike for fear
See the beauty sharp and sheer

A little boy walked over to help with a baby reindeer. He let the reindeer have a bite of a carrot, then took one himself.

One of the men cut a piece of ice in half.

Ice Harvesters:
Split the ice apart
And break the frozen heart

Hup
Ho
Watch your step
Let it go

The boy stumbled away from the other harvesters. Proudly, he got back up and strutted over to the lake.

Ice Harvesters:
Hup
Ho
Watch your step
Let it go

They pulled out big blocks of ice. The boy tried to do the same, but it ended up slipping.

Ice Harvester 1:
Beautiful

Ice Harvester 2:
Powerful

Ice Harvester 3:
Dangerous

Ice Harvester 4:
Cold

Ice Harvesters:
Ice has a magic, can't be controlled
Stronger than one
Stronger than ten
Stronger than a hundred men!
Huh!

The boy tried again to pick it up, failing. The reindeer licked his cheek to cheer him up.

Ice Harvesters:
Born of cold and winter air and mountain rain combining
This icy force, both foul and fair, has a frozen heart worth mining

One of the men lit a lantern as the others loaded the ice so that they may begin their deliveries.

Ice Harvesters:
So cut through the heart
Cold and clear
Strike for love and strike for fear
There's beauty and there's danger here
Split the ice apart!
Beware the frozen heart...

FROZEN HEART

Finally, the boy got the ice block out and put it on his small sled. The reindeer held a lantern in his mouth and rushed after the much bigger sled.

"C'mon, Sven!"
