Life form sustainer, dear I am water
Destroyer as well, fear, I am water.
Human cleanser, physically and spiritually
"Purifier of souls, " says seer, I am water.
Infusing life in biota*, of every strata
Vanishing element bring tear, I am water.
An element sacred, liquid amongst the elements
Eternal and perishable, O dear! I am water.
Moist, cool, transparent, lubricating, cohesive
changing shapes year after year, I am water.
Keeping bodies cool but warm, glowing with charm
Symbol of fertility, every mother cheers, I am water.
Harbinger of energy and carrying away wastes
Life line on the earth, putting life into gear, I am water.
Evaporation starts vicious circle forming water bodies
Hydrate, dehydrate keep the balance clear, I am water
Creation of Lord Indra**, omnificent, an element important
Tribhawan sprinkle to purify dear and near, I am water.
