Lyrics

Dear wind that shakes the barley free
Blow home my true love's ship to me, fill the sail
I a-weary wait upon the shore

Forsake her not in times of storm
Protect her oaken beams from harm, fill her sail
I a-weary wait upon the shore

Whither he be in africa
Or deep asleep in india, fill his dreams
I a-weary wait upon the shore

Dear snow white gulls upon the wave
I, like you, am lamenting, for my love
I a-weary cry upon the shore

And in my chariot of sleep
I ride the vast and dreamy deep deep sea
I awake a-weary on the shore

Seven years and seven days
No man has seen my woman ways, dear god
I a-weary cry upon the shore

Along the shingled beach I go
The wind about me as I make my way
To my weary dream upon my bed

Dear wind that shakes the barley free
Blow home my true love's ship to me, fill the sail
I a-weary wait upon the shore
