I don’t think there is anything left from your list, so not possible.
But maybe fish power?

No choice, it’s impossible. Only solution is just wait for the rain to come and pray that it won’t stop throughout your lifetime so you could get steady supply of water.

You need some source of energy to get the water up the hill. The only source you have left is the potential energy of the water in the pond to the bottom of the hill. There is a device used since the days the Romans built aqueducts called a "hydraulic ram" or "hydraulic ram pump". The energy from a large amount of falling water is used to propel a smaller amount up a hill. There are many ways to build one, one link is below. You can do a search for those terms to find more ways to build one.
