Description:A man's girlfriend made a promised to him that if he dies she will die with him. In no time the man died and for some time his girlfriend did not die to follow him. So he resurrected to a ghost and went to his girlfriend's farm to sing to look for her. Any family member of his girlfriend's family who goes to the farm to hear the song should return to tell the girl. She finally went and met the ghost to apologise for not having followed him. She prepared food for the ghost. The moral lesson is that you should never trust the promise in a relation.
