[Intro]
A
[Verse]
The currachs are sailing way out on the Eblue
Laden with herring of silvery Ahue
Silver the herring and silver the Esea
Soon there'll be silver for my love and Ame
[Chorus]
Hear the wind blow, love, hear the wind Eblow
Lean your head over and hear the wind Ablow
[Verse]
On wings of the wind, o'er the deep rolling Esea
Angels are coming to watch over Athee
Angels are coming to watch over Ethee
So hark to the winds coming over the Asea
[Chorus]
Hear the wind blow, love, hear the wind Eblow
Lean your head over and hear the wind Ablow
[Verse]
Oh, winds of the night, may your fury be Ecrossed
May no one that's dear to our island be Alost
Blow the wind gently, calm be the Efoam
Shine the light brightly to guide us back Ahome
[Chorus]
Hear the wind blow, love, hear the wind Eblow
Lean your head over and hear the wind Ablow
[Chorus]
Hear the wind blow, love, hear the wind Eblow
Lean your head over and hear the wind Ablow
[Outro]
The currachs are sailing out over the Esea
Laden with herring for my love and Ame

[Intro]

[Verse]

The currachs are sailing way out on the blue

Laden with herring of silvery hue

Silver the herring and silver the sea

Soon there'll be silver for my love and me

[Chorus]

Hear the wind blow, love, hear the wind blow

Lean your head over and hear the wind blow

[Verse]

On wings of the wind, o'er the deep rolling sea

Angels are coming to watch over thee

So hark to the winds coming over the sea

[Chorus]

Hear the wind blow, love, hear the wind blow

Lean your head over and hear the wind blow

[Verse]

Oh, winds of the night, may your fury be crossed

May no one that's dear to our island be lost

Blow the wind gently, calm be the foam

Shine the light brightly to guide us back home

[Chorus]

Hear the wind blow, love, hear the wind blow

Lean your head over and hear the wind blow

[Chorus]

Hear the wind blow, love, hear the wind blow

Lean your head over and hear the wind blow

[Outro]

The currachs are sailing out over the sea

Laden with herring for my love and me
