When the night grows dark and rain comes up
A thousand memories and a face comes up
The sound of rain creeps up the air
And in my ears thy music comes up
The scent of drops falling on the sand
And thy fragrance at once comes up
When crescent peeps from behind the clouds
Thy lovely, moon-lit smile comes up
The winds kiss my cheeks and flow away
The touch of thy hand at once comes up
A hope brightens the mournful eve
For the glitter of a pair of eyes comes up
The chill of rain causes me to shiver
The need of warmth, of love comes up
The shower giggles around the place
The flash of a laugh, a chuckle comes up
As pearls fall gently from the sky
In my eyes a tear comes up
Oh, how I miss those comely days!
And in my heart a sigh comes up
I know you loved me though you never said
For in thy gaze assent comes up.
