[Verse 1]
GTell me what was on yer road, ye Croarin Norland Dmwind?
GAs ye come blawin Emfrae the land that's nCever frae ma miDmnd
GMa feet, they've travelledEm England, but I'm Cdeein for the Dmnorth
C"Ma man, I saw the siller tides run up the Firth o' FGorth"
[Verse 2]
GWind, I ken them weEmel eneuch, and Cfine they fa' and Dmrise
GAnd frae the fields the cEmreepin mist on Cyonder shore that Dmlies
GBut tell me as ye pasEmsed them by, what Csaw ye on your Dmway?
C"Ma man, I rouch the rovin gulls that sail abin the GTay"
[Verse 3]
GBut saw ye nothing, lEmeeing wind, Cafore you cam tae FDmife?
GFor there's muckle lyin Emyond the Tay that's Cmair tae me than lDmife
G"Aye man, I swept the EmAngus braes ye Chavnae trod for yeDmars"
GOh wind, whur gae a haEmmeless loon thatC canna see for teDmars?
[Verse 4]
G"And far above the AEmngus straths I Csaw the wild geese fDmlee
GA lang, lang skean oEm' beatin' wings wi their Cheids towards the Dmsea
GAnd aye their cryin vEmoices trailed aChint them on the Dmair"
GOh wind, hae mercy, haEmud your wheesht, for IC daurna listen Dmmair.
