The paper presents a comparative textual analysis of Polish audiovisual translations of songs from Walt Disney Animation Studios’ animated films: Surface Pressure from Encanto (2021), You’re Welcome from Moana (2016), and Everything Is Honey from Winnie the Pooh (2011). The study aims to identify the translation methods and procedures applied in the translation process, based on Newmark’s (1988) classifications, and to examine the relationships between the English and Polish lyrics of the songs and their accompanying pictures. Conclusions from the analysis allow us to determine how the polysemy of the visual layer of a film can be utilised in the process of audiovisual translation.
