1. A cloud that did not fail us
Of desire and of awe

2. Its dripping and lightning
Is water of life and flame

3. Its dripping is silver
White, and its lightning is gold

4. If the eyelid of its lightning slept
The wind woke it, so it drifted

5. With it the land became
Rich from what it bestows

6. So the water is wine distilled
And the water is inhaled musk
