The genial rain ambrosia call:
The world but lasts while rain shall fall.   

English Meaning: Rain sustains life on Earth, allowing all living things to survive and thrive; for this reason, it deserves to be called "ambrosia"—the nectar of life. Just as the mythical ambrosia was thought to give eternal life to the gods, rain nourishes the land, fills rivers, grows crops, and supports ecosystems. Without rain, life would wither, and the balance of nature would collapse. Therefore, rain is not just water—it is essential, life-giving, and precious, making it truly worthy of being seen as a divine blessing that keeps the world alive.
