Dorado [English translation]

[Intro: Mahmood]

Golden, golden

Golden, golden, golden

[Verse 1: Mahmood]

I had nothing in my pockets

I was cool, I wasn't Prada

Walking on the street, I was clutching a rosary

Travelling far away from here

Outside I drink on a staircase

Inside my house I sing Lana1

Nefertiti2 is the necklace

That I've been wearing since dreaming of such a life

[Pre-Chorus: Mahmood]

I dream of a golden Ferrari

Lost here in the middle of Cairo

In the desert I'll dance the fado3

Squeeze it, seize it

If this world was a market

I'd be the most expensive ring

I sleep in an armored van

A dream was already shining here

[Chorus: Mahmood & Sfera Ebbasta]

(Golden)

Under the sand (Golden)

Of Casablanca (Golden)

A mother's eyes (Golden, bu, bu)

Golden

[Verse 2: Sfera Ebbasta & Mahmood]

A golden Rolex (ah), girl, I love you (ah)

A boy of the hood (brr), goodbye (ba)

We're full of gold, pockets full of euros (brr)

Those full of hate don't put out my fire

(No, no, golden)

Oh no no (uh), they say money isn't everything (uh)

I like her because she has a firm ass (uh)

I could take her to El Dorado4

Going straight to the point, ok

(Golden, golden)

[Pre-Chorus: Mahmood]

I dream of a golden Ferrari

Lost here in the middle of Cairo

In the desert I'll dance the fado

Squeeze it, seize it

If this world was a market

I'd be the most expensive ring

I sleep in an armored van

A dream was already shining here

[Chorus: Mahmood]

(Golden)

Under the sand (Golden)

Of Casablanca (Golden)

A mother's eyes (Golden)

(Golden, golden, golden)

Under the sand (Golden)

Of Casablanca (Golden)

A mother's eyes (Golden)

[Verse 3: Feid & Mahmood]

Get it, woah (Golden)

We started from down under and now we're here (yeah)

I always look fresh without wearing jeans (jeans)

Crowned like I promised my folks (yes)

They gave me space and I put it in the corner (wow)

I'm making a score and going to Italy (yes)

I feel like Paris and it wasn't Natalia (she says)

Baes smash each other without using their lips

The guys seem like making magic (uy, yeah)

[Bridge: Feid]

I pray that my enemy isn't doing poorly

Red is the Ferrari that I'm going to buy (uy, get it)

Yup

[Chorus: Mahmood, Feid, Mahmood & Feid, Sfera Ebbasta]

Golden (yo)

Under the sand

(Golden, I like it, I like it)

Of Casablanca (Golden)

(Yo)

A mother's eyes (Golden)

Bye, bye

(Golden)

Under the sand (Golden)

(oh, no, no)

How awesome, golden,

(Golden) Girl, I love you

A mother's eyes

(Golden)

(Golden, golden, golden)

1. probably Lana del Rey2. an ancient Egyptian queen; refers to an actual necklace of Nefertiti's head that Mahmood wears3. Fado is a form of traditional Portuguese music characterized by mournful tunes and lyrics, often about the sea or the life of the poor, and infused with a sentiment of resignation, fate and melancholia.4. El Dorado was believed to be an indigenous kingdom in South America, full of gold. During the era of the Spanish colonialist empire, several expeditions to find El Dorado were led but all came up empty-handed. By the 19th century it became widely accepted that El Dorado was just a myth.
