Was built by the divinities, by gods
 Who saw fit to bestow
 The gift of a paradise
 Peaceful and harmonious upon
 Us mere mortals below

 And made El Dorado
 The magnificent and golden
 One thousand years ago

 El Dorado
 El Dorado
 El Dorado

 But all this was granted
 For only one millennium
 I know my legacy is to fulfill
 My promise to all my people
 Who have trusted me, the gods
 Will approve of us still

 Preserve El Dorado
 The magnificent and golden
 And I believe they will

 El Dorado
 El Dorado
 El Dorado

 The mountains so high and waters deep
 Are her disguise
 Her secrets are safe from foreign hands and eyes forever

 Preserve El Dorado
 The magnificent and golden
 And I believe they will

 El Dorado
