Una culebra de nube, y una culebra de lluvia
A cloud snake, and a rain snake
Viene bajando del cielo, viene bajando solita
It comes down from the sky, it comes down alone
Tu eres el macho culebra
You are the male snake
El que del cielo bajó
The one who came down from heaven
Vienes buscando a tu hembra
You come looking for your female
Por el arroyo del có
By the creek of the co
Con el tambor te cantaste
With the drum you sang
Unas palabras de humo
a few words of smoke
A la mujer la animaste
You encouraged the woman
Con tu chubasco de brujo
With your sorcerer's shower
Koó koó de la nube, koó koó de la lluvia
Koó koó of the cloud, koó koó of the rain
Ese viento bendito, rumbo que nace el sol
That blessed wind, direction that the sun rises
Nace un señor de la piedra
A stone lord is born
Y hasta se vuelve culebra
And it even turns into a snake
Quien dijo que se sabía, ese misterio de Dios
Who said it was known, that mystery of God
Dice la gente del monte, que llega sin avisar
The people of the mountains say that they arrive without warning
Que en una peña de lobos
that in a rock of wolves
Se anda dejando agarrar
He is letting himself be caught
