Cobra Traiçoeira Lyrics Translation in English

Cuidado com a cobra venenosa

Beware of the venomous snake

Ela pode te morder

It can bite you

Cobra críada é bicho perigroso

A raised snake is a dangerous creature

Ela te morde e tu não vé

It bites you, and you don't see

Perto de mim teve um monte de cobra

Near me, there were a lot of snakes

Foi São Bento que me protejeu

It was Saint Benedict who protected me

A que estava mais perto de mim

The one that was closest to me

Que cobra traiçoeira essa que me mordeu

What a treacherous snake that bit me

Mas meu veneno tambem era forte

But my venom was also strong

Hoje estou vivo e cobra morreu

Today I am alive, and the snake is dead

Coro:

Chorus:

Olha cobre te morde

Look, the snake bites you

Senhor São Bento

Lord Saint Benedict
