SANT ANTON ANJE, PAUS GHAL SANJE
In my day (late 1920s) the children in Porvorim would carry stones on their
head, singing "Sant' Anton, man'chea bettan
Paus gall amchea shetan."
______________________________________________________________________
in my village it went:
Sant Anton virgo, Iscolacho burgo!
Dev Saiba paus dhi!!!
The lines, in the rain-litany I loved:
Sant'Anton firiganchö
Paus gall mirgancho...
Firingui = Pacló, foreigner
Mirg = The storm initiating the annual monsoons along the Malabar coast.
In our childhood it came near-punctually arround June 10.
When it had hit Ceylon, my father, and others used to soak in the
rice seedling.
it took ca five days for monsoons to make it to our region, by which time
the sprouting rice were ready to be sown.
Nowadays, quite often, the first rain-burst turns out to be just a teaser,
and
the process has to be repeated.
Woe to those who are left without seed: most.
Lest this happens this year, posting St Anthony's novena in Konkni.
When he was taken out for a merry stroll through the parched fields
we were discouraged to holler exclusively in Concanim
