Lyrics Nana Mouskouri

Nana Mouskouri

Blow The Wind Southerly

Blow the wind southerly, southerly, southerly

Blow the 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 bark that is bearing my lover to me

Blow the wind southerly, southerly, southerly

Blow the wind south o'er 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 o'er the deep rolling sea

But sweeter and dearer by far 'tis when bringing

The bark of my true love in safety to me

Blow bonnie breeze and bring him to me
