Blow the wind southerly, southerly, southerly |
|
Blow the wind south where' s the bonnie blue sea |
|
Blow the wind southerly, southerly, southerly |
|
Blow bonnie breeze my lover to me and bring him to me |
|
They told me last night there were ships in the offing |
|
And I hurried down to the deep rolling sea |
|
But my eye could not see it wherever might be it |
|
The bark that is bringing my lover to me |
|
Blow the wind southerly,southerly souterlay |
|
Blow the wind south the bonnie blue sea |
|
Blow the wind southerly southerly southerly |
|
Blow bonnie breeze and bring him to me |
|
Is it not sweet to hear the breeze singing |
|
As lightly it comes from the deep rolling sea |
|
But sweeter and dearer, my heart is wandering |
|
The welcome of my true love in safety to me |
|
Blow bonnie breeze and bring him to me |
