Текст песни Cortez - Hexador

He sailed to a faraway land
That was unknown to any man
Upon arriving on the seashore
He beached his galleons on sand
He was tempted with tales of gold
More than ships store could hold

Over the treetops great temples shown
Where the natives sacrificed and ate their own
He gird himself for war
With bucklers, lance, and the sword
And when his cannons fired and roared
His horse ran down the fleeing horde

Onward through forest and over mountains
Through water torrents
Crossing the rivers gushing like fountains
Facing the natives massed by the thousands
The battles continued on and on

When it all ended winning the fight
There in the mist beholding a sight
A native slave girl given as prize
Beautiful Aztec princess

Then he reached the city of gold in the lake
And vowed that he was going to take
Helmets, breastplates and cannons lost
Many men died was the cost
Some men were burdened with so much gold
They sank and drowned is how it's been told

The Spanish Knights winced like sparrows
Through a gauntlet of stones and arrows
Those lucky enough to survive
Got dragged away and taken alive
Their hearts taken from their chest ripped open
And their bodies eaten as a token

Memories of better times back in Spain
Charming and gallant
Woo señoritas and entertain
Courtships and romance how life was back then
Adventurous life of Cortez

Nobles with titles grandees and knights
Dancing with ladies late in the night
Lovers kiss under the moonlight
From Saville to Barcelona

All the Aztecs were so fierce
Spanish lances did they pierce
Brought their empire to an end
Could not defend
So bold marches on
With gold by the ton
The war being won
And the conquest just begun

Back in Spain with triumph and with glory
And the fame the soldiers tell his story
Of Cortez Conquistador
Conquistador
Conquistador
