Rainy Day
The rain started since early morning
It is hard for those without warning
But how can we disregard the good of it
We used to pray for rain for the field
Today the wind and the flow of water
Are seen everywhere and it’s hotter
Torrential rain is coming down on all
It looks like neighboring a great fall
Gardens were flooded, flowers bent
Like greeting their neighbors, they went
The trees were happy, danced all day
Their branches were falling, torn away
Sun hid its face behind the grey, dark sky
Hoping to see its smile with its golden eye
And its bright rays, lighting up our face
Instead the drops were all over the place
No one is thinking about the huge freight
The clouds are carrying from state to state
To make us happy and to quench our thirst
Even if the village is sometimes immersed
How could we pay for carrying all this rain?
Let’s be happy, welcome every cloud as a gain
And pray there would never be a lack of water
The base of all life, parents, son and daughter
