Oh mango !! you are so sweet 

in summers ,u can find them easily in ur street

can find tree laden with mangoes

either you buy it or eat it for free

for that you have to climb a mango tree

oh juicy ,sweet mangoes,a part of my life

but i have to peel, squeeze or cut u with knife 

fruit eaten out of hand

mango is the world's No. 1

you are so selfless, make others happy

you are a charm and pride of our country

soft, pulpy texture similar to an overripe plum

contains a variety of phytochemicals and nutrients
