Descend On Us Oh Wonderful Rain

Descend on us oh wonderful rain Shower us with your ebullient drops Bath our lands and little crops Take away the gloom on the face of flowers Oh rain energetically fall! So harvest may later fill our trucks! Let the dormancy of the lanes be invaded by your noise So trees may grow tall As much as the peasants had toiled Satiate the thirst of our dry lands Flush away the hunger that destroy the farms Make endowed our liquidating dams! Oh rain do energetically fall And bath our lands and little crops!

What a beautiful testimony to the life giving power of rain. May this be answered with a deluge from above.
