Gaily bedight, Gaily bedight, Vistosamente vestido, A gallant knight, A gallant knight, Um galante Cavaleiro In sunshine and in shadow, In sunshine and in shadow, No sol e na sombra, Had journeyed long, Had journeyed long, Tinha uma longa jornada, Singing a song, Singing a song, Cantando uma canção, In search of Eldorado. In search of Eldorado. Em busca do Eldorado. But he grew old- But he grew old- Mas ficou velho - This knight so bold- This knight so bold- Esse cavaleiro tão corajoso - And o'er his heart a shadow And o'er his heart a shadow E sobre seu coração uma sombra, Fell as he found Fell as he found Logo que encontrou, No spot of ground No spot of ground Nenhum pedaço de chão, That looked like Eldorado. That looked like Eldorado. Que parecia com o Eldorado. And, as his strength And, as his strength E, como sua força, Failed him at length, Failed him at length, Falhou-lhe finalmente, He met a pilgrim shadow- He met a pilgrim shadow- Conheceu uma sombra viajante - "Shadow," said he, "Shadow," said he, "Sombra", disse, "Where can it be- "Where can it be- "Como pode ser - This land of Eldorado?" This land of Eldorado?" Essa terra o Eldorado?". "Over the Mountains "Over the Mountains "Depois das Montanhas, Of the Moon, Of the Moon, Da Lua, Down the Valley of the Shadow, Down the Valley of the Shadow, Descendo o Vale da Sombra, Ride, boldly ride," Ride, boldly ride," Cavalgue, corajosamente, cavalgue", The shade replied- The shade replied- A sombra respondeu, "If you seek for Eldorado!" "If you seek for Eldorado!" "Se procura pelo Eldorado!"
