Description:Summary: Once upon a time, when birds were about to fly to the Manau festival, the Indian night jar said, "I'm not going because I'm poor. I feel embarrassed because I don't have festival feathers." Other birds said, "Oh, Let's go! We will lend you ours." So, various birds lent him their feathers one by one. This made him look very beautiful. Then, they were able to attend the festival together. However, the Indian night jar grew very boastful at the festival because he thought he was the most beautiful of all the birds. He even ignored the friends who gave him their feathers. "Don't boast so much!" said other birds. "Oh, I will!" he replied, "Aren't I the most beautiful bird here?" Just as he said this, the other birds pulled out the feathers they had lent to him. He was embarrassed and flew away to a dark forest. This is the reason why the Indian night jar hides in dark places during the daytime today. Transcription: Manau poi sa ai hkamhkam u a lam.
