O rain, O rain, curtain of water! Drops of poetry sprinkled by the sky, the sound of laughing clouds! The blue sky, without any loom, has woven a sari of rain from threads of water. This bridge of water connects the sky and the earth, O beauty of nature... Rim jhim!
O rain, O rain, curtain of water!
The raindrops falling upon the body of the earth become the life of this world; flowers of hope bloom across every heart.
Dry deserts turn into lush green groves; isn't this rainwater a precious gift from the sky? Rim jhim, rim jhim, rim jhim, rim jhim...
O rain, O rain...
...
Reaching past clothes, the long hands of the rain touch the body, mind, and soul; even the earth touched by the rain gives off a sweet scent.
Even the river is bathing and inviting me to get soaked; watching it is only half the joy, so I will drench myself! Rim jhim, rim jhim, rim jhim, rim jhim...
O rain, O rain, curtain of water! Drops of poetry sprinkled by the sky, the sound of laughing clouds! The blue sky, without any loom, has woven a sari of rain from threads of water. This bridge of water connects the sky and the earth, O beauty of nature... Rim jhim!
