Ah... ah... aah... ah...
Ah... ah... aah... ah...
On the canal bank, the night-fowl calls
The night-fowl calls and wakes up the king
A moon wearing a skirt...
A boat looking for a stream...
Walks along the riverbank...
On the canal bank, the night-fowl calls
The night-fowl calls and wakes up the king
A moon wearing a skirt...
A boat looking for a stream...
Walks along the riverbank...
The milky moonlight strolls through town at midnight
Green grass has become a mat, and you have become my pillow
It is the hour when the tender sprout meets the lake breeze
Strange desires stirred within me, and the chilly mist turned to fire
Won't the golden deer stay awake and yearn?
Won't the carp fish go looking for water?
On the canal bank, the night-fowl calls
The night-fowl calls and wakes up the king
A moon wearing a skirt...
A boat looking for a stream...
Walks along the riverbank...
On the canal bank, the night-fowl calls
The night-fowl calls and wakes up the king
Thinking her aging man lacked strength in his spine,
Suppayi, sculpted like a bronze statue, made him soup!
He drank that soup and began to snore loudly,
And that shameless fool just slept through the night!
Did you hear this story, hey Kangeyam bulls?
You would laugh if you had mouths; did you see the fun? Hey!
There has been no food and no sleep for six whole months
Every breath I draw in turns hot because of you
Won't a raincloud come to water the roots?
The drizzle has fallen, and the garden has bloomed
Oh my goodness, at a sweet time like this,
Shall we take a breezy stroll far away?
On the canal bank, the night-fowl calls
The night-fowl calls and wakes up the king
A moon wearing a skirt...
A boat looking for a stream...
Walks along the riverbank...
On the canal bank...
Ah... ah...
The night-fowl calls
Ah... ah...
