Vivo Num Ninho de Cobra
Mestre Pernalonga
Living in a Snake's Nest
I live in a snake's nest
I'm a snake that snakes don't bite
A snake meets a snake
No need to say who is a snake
Work has a wasp
Build a house in the grass
Come the wind and take it
Marimbondo ends
Dog that swallows bone
Something gets stuck
Hi in the gullet or throat
Or in another parish
Work has a wasp
Build a house in the grass
The wind comes and takes it away
Marimbondo ends
In the mouth of those who are no good
What is good has no value
I ask God from heaven
Oh, because God blessed me
