“O, there’s a wind a-blowing, a-blowing from the west,
And that of all the winds is the one I like the best,

And it soon will blow us home to the old countrie.”

Pictured trophies to their grave,
And we, churls, to thee deny
Thy pretty toys with thee to lie—
A more harmless vanity?”

Their old, familiar carols play,
And wild and sweet
The words repeat
Of peace on earth, good will to men.”
