Blow the Wind Southerly wind south o'er the bonny blue sea; Blow the wind southerly, southerly, southerly, Blow bonnie breeze, my lover 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 barque that is bearing my lover to me. CHORUS I stood by the lighthouse the last time we parted, Till darkness came down o'er the deep rolling sea, And no longer I saw the bright bark of my lover. Blow, bonny breeze and bring him to me. CHORUS
