| I gave my heart to you in old Lisbon that night, |
| Under the spell of your charms, |
| I felt your arms hold me so tight; |
| `Twas heaven to find such bliss in each kiss; |
| I lost my heart but I found one so true, |
| In old Lisbon with you. |
| It happened one night in Portugal |
| Lisbon was gay in the moonlight, |
| The stars were shining above |
| When I found you, my love; |
| What is this strangeness, this splendor, |
| All this myst’ry that makes me surrender? |
| Lisboa antigua reposa |
| llena de encanto y belleza |
| que fuiste hermosa al sonreir |
| y al vestir tan airosa! |
| El velo de la nostalgia |
| cubrirà tu rostro |
| de linda princesa. |
| No volveràs |
| Lisboa antigua y senorial |
| a ser morada feudal |
| a tu esplendor real. |
| Las fiestas y los lùcidos saraos |
| y serenatas al amanecer |
| ya nunca volveràn |
