Oh, where do you come from,
You little drops of rain,
Pitter-patter, pitter-patter,
Down the windowpane?
Tell me, little raindrops,
Is that the way you play?
Pitter-patter, pitter-patter,
All the rainy day?
I sit here at the window;
I've nothing else to do;
Oh, I wish that I could play,
This rainy day, with you!
The little raindrops cannot speak,
But "pitter-patter-pat"
Means, "We can play on this side,
Why can't you play on that?"
