Do not mistake me for rain,
I am a river of fire.
Do not mistake me for rain,
I am a river of fire.
It is only compulsion, that I burn within myself.
Do not mistake me for rain.

Do not mistake me for rain.

Do not take offense at any word I speak,
Do not take offense at any word I speak,
Do not take offense.
Whatever I say, I say out of habit.

I have told the best among them, I am well, very well.
Do not mistake me for rain.

The enmity of friends, and the friendship of foes,
The enmity of friends, and the friendship of foes,
The friendship of foes,

From which crossroads, how have I emerged?
Do not mistake me for rain.
I am a river of fire.
It is only compulsion, that I burn within myself.
Do not mistake me for rain.
