| |
| A VOICE on the winds, | |
| A voice by the waters, | |
| Wanders and cries: | |
| Oh! what are the winds? | |
| And what are the waters? | 5 |
| Mine are your eyes! | |
| |
| Western the winds are, | |
| And western the waters, | |
| Where the light lies: | |
| Oh! what are the winds? | 10 |
| And what are the waters? | |
| Mine are your eyes! | |
| |
| Cold, cold grow the winds, | |
| And wild grow the waters, | |
| Where the sun dies: | 15 |
| Oh! what are the winds? | |
| And what are the waters? | |
| Mine are your eyes! | |
| |
| And down the night winds, | |
| And down the night waters, | 20 |
| The music flies: | |
| Oh! what are the winds? | |
| And what are the waters? | |
| Cold be the winds, | |
| And wild be the waters, | 25 |
| So mine be your eyes! | |
