Songtext von Eldorado

Gaily bedight, a gallant knight In sunshine and in shadow Did journey long, singing a song In search of Eldorado But he grew old this knight so bold And o'er his heart a shadow Fell as he found no spot of ground That looked like Eldorado Over the mountains of the moon Down the valley of the shadow Ride boldly ride the shade replied If you seek for Eldorado And as his strength failed him at length He met a pilgrim shadow Shadow said he where can it be This land of Eldorado Over the mountains of the moon Down the valley of the shadow Ride boldly ride the shade replied If you seek for Eldorado
