I was walking to-words the mill when I saw a group of people standing by the road and it
looked like they were waiting for me. I was still remembering the song
"Underneath the Mango Tree" and as I went near them they asked me where did I
go in the village. I thought for a moment to confront them but knowing they all
liked me I said went to the river to see from where the water is pumped to the Mill.
You could have asked anyone in the mills they would have told you. I said I did and that's
what they told it is from the river. I met a farmer perhaps one of your man and he did not tell me.
He is a guest he doesn't know one of then said. It is more than a year that arrangement is not working,
it was not for the mill that water was pumped but to a private farmer. After you took out
the pump and motor gov't authorities came on a inspection after a complaint that water
was pumped with out permission from authorities and they found no motor or pump to
confiscate and no one went near them so they went away, they said, I said thank you and
turned to go when they asked is the mill going to stop. I said it will not stop and
I am trying to keep it working. They all gave me a smile and I started walking to words
the mill trying to sing the song,
Sung by Singer - Monty Norman – "Under The Mango Tree" Lyrics
Underneath the Mango Tree
Me honey and me can watch for the moon
Underneath the Mango Tree
Me honey and me make boolooloop soon
Underneath the moonlit sky
Me honey and I can sit hand in hand
Underneath the moonlit sky
Me honey and I can make fairyland
Mango, banana and tangerine
Sugar and ackee and cocoa bean
When we get marry we make them grow
And nine little chil̉‘ in a row
Underneath the Mango Tree
Me honey and me can watch for the moon
Underneath the Mango Tree
Me honey and me we plan marry soon
Mango, banana and tangerine
Sugar and ackee and cocoa bean
When we get marry we make them grow
And nine little chil̉‘ in a row
Underneath the Mango Tree
Me honey and me can watch for the moon
Underneath the Mango Tree
Me honey and me we plan marry soon.
I came to the mills and saw the office boy, hey, why did you not come to meet me yesterday and where is the GM and where is the chairman and from where is the water coming to the mills, why the mill is stopped, has the spinning master come, I asked in one breath. He said,
We could not come yesterday as it was late because we missed the Bus.
;
GM is Sick and he has sent his leave letter.
Chairman will come to morrow.
Mill is stopped because of power Failure.
Water is now pumped from Chairman's Farm because you removed the motor at the river when you were here last time to fix it on your TFO machine as motor was not in the machine.
Spinning Master has come.
Would you like a cup of Tea he asked.
Please get me I said smilingly, he went happily.
