The night-bird is screeching,
Leaving sleep behind and wandering about,
Oh my goodness!
The night-bird is screeching,
Leaving sleep behind and wandering about,
Oh my goodness!
Hey hey hey hey hey hey, Rukkumani!
Chorus: Granny, granny!
Male: Ten o'clock,
Chorus: Has struck, has struck!
Male: In the whole town,
Chorus: The hue and cry,
Male: All the noise,
Chorus: Has faded away!
Male: As far as we are concerned,
This right now is our daytime!
The night-bird is screeching,
Leaving sleep behind and wandering about,
Oh my goodness, look at it!
The night-bird is screeching,
Leaving sleep behind and wandering about,
Oh my goodness!
What business brought us
Into this house?
When we just walked in casually,
Why ask for an umbrella fee?
Why bother with a house and family, hey pal?
All this unnecessary trouble,
We do not want it, hey pal!
Stealing from Granny's shop
For fried bondas, hey pal!
When you get it for free,
It tastes so good, hey pal!
Whichever direction we please,
Chorus: We will go!
Male: However we wish,
Chorus: We will live!
We are night-birds, young bandicoots!
Male: Tharannaanna tharannaanna naa
{The night-bird is screeching,
Leaving sleep behind and wandering about,
Oh my goodness!}

Why build a pen for a temple bull?
Why calculate interest on our father's wealth?
Take whatever comes as pure profit, man!
Or pick a fight and get your head split open!
If you do not want any hassle,
Just get along, man!
If your shirt gets torn,
Stitch it with a needle, man!
To challenge or question us here,
Chorus: Who is there?
Male: Exactly as we say,
Chorus: The town must dance!
We are night-birds, young bandicoots!
Male: Tharannaanna tharannaanna naa
