Eldorado Songtext
von Donovan
Eldorado Songtext
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?
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?
