It is the 16th century . . .
From all over Europe,
Great ships sail West
To conquer the New World: the Americas.
The men eager to seek their fortune,
To find new adventures in new lands.
They long to cross uncharted seas
And discover unknown countries,
To find secret gold
On a mountain trail
High in the Andes.
They dream of following the path
Of the setting sun
That leads to El Dorado
And the Mysterious Cities of Gold!
