Känkkäränkkä [English translation]

Once upon time there was a little evil witch called Känkkäränkkä

She amuses herself by eating raisins and by hitting her stick

She is so small that the adults can't see her at all

But it certainly visits in children's homes

If Känkkäränkkä comes at night, children can't sleep at all

Because Nukkumatti really, really fears Känkkäränkkä

(Eek!)

When Känkkäränkkä comes to dinner, she muches her raisins

And makes the food in children's mouth taste bad

You can visit our home, Känkkäränkkä, but [only] when it is the Känkkäränkkä Day

Of course it is nice that children have their own hook-legged witch

But don't come too often, Känkkäränkkä, come just once a week

Because you put all länkkälönkkä, and Mom blames the kids

When the have to go preschool in the morning, the children are in fury

Because Känkkäränkkä tells them to put their shoes on wrong feets

(Oh, Känkkäränkkä!)

Känkkäränkkä urge children to break others' toys

And she happily knocks with her stick when she can make kids to fight

(Hih hih hih!)

You can visit our home, Känkkäränkkä, but [only] when it is the Känkkäränkkä Day

Of course it is nice that children have their own hook-legged witch

But don't come too often, Känkkäränkkä, come just once a week

Because you put all länkkälönkkä, and Mom blames the kids

And behind the all is just a little evil witch
