“Inside that darkness, i saw rain falling on the sea. Rain softly falling on a vast sea, with no one there to see it. The rain strikes the surface of the sea, yet even the fish don't know it is raining.”

“The sea
Of the changeable reflections
Under rain.”
"La Mer" (1943) - Live performance by Trenet http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KHYj1-3QrrY - YouTube video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fd_nopTFuZA - "Beyond the Sea" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SEIDep_UMmk, an adaptation of the music of "La Mer", sung by Bobby Darin
Context: The sea
This one seen to dance alongside the clear gulfs
To the reflections silver
The sea
Of the changeable reflections
Under rain.
“The clouds, never expect it,
When it rains
But the sea changes color,
But the sea does not change”
Edge of Seventeen
Bella Donna (album) (1981)
<p>Eu não vi o mar.
Não sei se o mar é bonito.
Não sei se ele é bravo.
O mar não me importa.</p><p>Eu vi a lagoa.
A lagoa, sim.
A lagoa é grande
e calma também.</p><p>Na chuva de cores
da tarde que explode,
a lagoa brilha.
A lagoa se pinta
de todas as cores.
Eu não vi o mar.
Eu vi a lagoa...</p>
"Lagoa" ["Lake"]
Alguma Poesia [Some Poetry] (1930)
"When The Rain Came Down" <!-- at some points this sounds more like "I am standing in green" -->
Ecto (1987)
Context: When the rain came down, I was standing in the green
My soul was touched by every tree that my eyes could see
I am in peace, in love, in harmony
when the rain comes
down When the rain came down — melded with my tears
When the rain came down — flow away the fears
When the rain came down — bigger than the sea
When the rain came down — then came me.
