Oh, winter rain,
Just like the silvery drops flow from Heaven
Thou refresh my heart and scorched brain…
My unquenchable thirst for reason
My parched soul that longs for a shower
And my heart dances with eternal pleasure
Oh Lord, bless this fool in such a cosmic celebration…
With the magical kiss of drizzling elixir
I quench my thirsty passion and towering desires…
Earth blushes to echoes of the soft humming rain
I also slip into the dreamy lane away from all pain!!
