English text

As torrents in summer, Half dried in their channels,
Suddenly rise, suddenly rise
tho' the sky is still cloudlesss, the sky is still cloudless.
For rain, for rain has been falling.
Far off at their fountains;
So hearts that are fainting Grow full to o'erflowing,
And they that behold it, they that behold it
Marvel, and know not, marvel and know not
That God, that God at their fountains
Far off has been raining,
Far off, farr off has been raining!
