Excerpt from Ruth Gan Kagan's version of the Prayer for Rain
-as appears in "Dirshuni: Contemporary Women's Midrash, edited by Tamar Biala"
"Remember the one who stood by the reeds, watching by the Nile's water,
She breathed life into newborns, saving them from deathdark water,
Who, with her drum and circle-dance, sang at the Sea of water,
By her merit, You bore them the gift-- a rolling well of water,
For her righteousness grant abundant water!"
