မိုးနတ္သား ထြက္ပါလတ္ @ Please Come Up Angel of Rain

This year, it is quite late monsoon winds to come in to Myanmar, it resulted water shortage in most of the places in Myanmar. It is the most distinct year in this decade that temperature high up until over 40 degree Celsius  in a lot of places including old capital of Myanmar. Hopefully, third or fourth week of May, monsoon winds can come in, otherwise there will be a big trouble for people in Myanmar.

For Mgluaye, it was like an old story because I was experienced water shortage since childhood. Same timing, somewhere in month of May, people from my native town had to face same problem. All the ponds and lakes used for main water supply for us are dried and we have to go far away from town to fetch water.

When I was teenage, people from the town including my parents organized to set up water supply system for the town. There was a big lake formed naturally by ranges of mountains at north of the town. They had to lay concrete pipes and built up separate wells in each quarter that allow people to fetch water nearby.

It can solve a big problem that usually faced every year, but sometime that big lake also dried and lowered water level in summer. At this point of time, we have no other way than to go that lake and fetch water by ourselves.

There was a song we usually sung while we faced hot summer and late monsoon. It was “Moe Nat Thar Htwak Par Lat” means “Please Come Up Angel of Rain”. Now here is that song sung by famous singer of Arakan, Khine Myat Mun.

Have fun by listening and let’s pray “Angel of rain to come up.”
