Two plus two, always they say, equals four,

Scatter wide, in every place.

To those who live, the ease of dying,
Grant them a gentle passing, O Lord, I implore.

Grant sugar-coated treats, O Lord, I implore.
Let the clouds roar, let the parched earth drink,
Grant water again, O Lord, I implore.
Grant water again, O Lord, I implore.
Grant water again, O Lord, I implore.
