How beautiful is the rain

How beautiful is the rain!                                                                            

After the dust and heat

In the broad and fiery street,

In the narrow lane,

How beautiful is the rain

Across the window pane                                                          

Its pours and pours;

And swift and wide,

Like arriver down the gutter roars

The rain, the welcome rain

In the country, on every side,

Where far and wide

Like a leopard’s tawny and spotted hide

Stretch as  the plains ,

To the dry grass and drier grain

How welcome is the rain
