Ah Conquistador
Is it only gold you're looking for?
Or may you still yet see, the treasure long concealed within me?
Ah Conquistador
Campaigns you waged to win the war
To gain the world and lose your soul, what were you fighting for?
Ah Conquistador
Is it only gold you're looking for?
And can you still not see, the treasure long concealed within me?
Ah Conquistador
Who plundered paradise and more?
To gain the world but lose your soul, por que Conquistador?
Ah Conquistador
Enslaved in chains you never saw
You who were meant to live so free
Ah Conquistador
Is it only gold you're searching for?
And can you still not see the treasure long concealed within me?
