| Unfetter'd as thy wing I rove | B |

| And teach lone echoes to prolong | C |
| From Caves remote my sprightly song | C |
| Blow mountain breeze | D |
| - | |
| No sigh for pomp or state I breathe | E |
| For me the sun beam smiles in gold | F |
| I envy not the victor's wreath | G |
| For me the Alpine flow'rs unfold | F |
| Gay simple free I rove along | C |
| And wood and hill resound my song | C |
| Blow mountain breeze | D |
| When morning wakes with humid eye | H |
| And cheek that kindling bright'ning glows | I |
| When the soft blushes of the sky | H |
| With roseate lustre tinge the snows | I |
| I lead my flocks I leave my home | J |
| And carol gaily as I roam | J |

| The palm the pine the cedar shade | K |
| Afford me still a cool retreat | L |
| Where shelter'd from th' oppressive ray | M |
| I wake soft echoes with my lay | M |
| Blow mountain breeze | D |

| Deep in a glen retir'd and green | N |
| How sweetly smiles my native cot | O |
| Where peace and joy and love serene | N |
| Have sanctified the tranquil spot | O |
| - | |
| How blest there ever to remain | P |
| And warble still th' untutor'd strain | P |
| Blow mountain breeze | D |
| - | |
| In rich festoons the mantling vine | Q |
| Embow'ring o'er its casement waves | R |
| And bloomy clusters dangling shine | Q |
| Thro' tendrils and luxuriant leaves | S |
| While as I train each wayward spray | M |
| I carol still the artless lay | M |
| Blow mountain breeze | D |
| Mine is the breath of zephyr pure | T |
| The Alpine sweet that scents the gale | U |
| The slumber light the life secure | T |
| The boundless range of hill and dale | U |
| Fearless I rove exploring free | A |
| Spirit of air all wild like thee | A |
| Blow mountain breeze | D |
