LITTLE RAIN Abraham Eliyohu Kaplan I had a dear mother Who taught me To be good, pious and clear And

nothing of worldly wisdom. Little rain, little rain, I am a simple person. I let the rain fall on me, I know nothing of worldly wisdom. I had a dear father Who taught me The alphabet by heart And nothing of worldly wisdom. I had a dear teacher Who taught me The Five Books, Rashi, and Sidur, And nothing of worldly wisdom. I had a matchmaker Who was a fine person. He brought me a wife Who knows nothing of worldly wisdom.
