The cloud drops on my lip On the tip of my nose I get hugged by the drip Ah, rain is so close! The heat is now a story The balm seems so near Regaining its lost glory Surely the monsoon is here! Tip-tap on my windowpane Dark floaters are busy Pouring on men and women Life is once more easy! I'm glad the rain is back To awaken the soil's green Wipe out the summer's crack Dance on my parched roof tin!
