- Description: This is the story of a young orphan boy who was told to take his turn to herd all the the cattle of the village where he lived. But it was a time of drought and there was nothing for the cattle to eat. When his turn came he took them far away into the hills and then he sang a magic song. The rain came down in torrents, the grass grew and the cattle were happy. When they came back full. One of the men followed him to find out how it happened and heard and saw what he did. He was so impressed that he promised to give the boy his daughter in marriage and told what he had seen to all the village. They arranged a big party for the orphan boy during which he demonstrated how he sang and how the rain came for him. So he married the girl and they all lived happily ever afterwards and they made him their chief to rule over them. Ngano story.
