Ah no no it is nothing surely nothing at all	A
Only the wild going wind round by the garden wall	A
For the dawn just now is breaking the wind beginning to fall	A
	-
Wind wind thou art sad art thou kind	B
Wind wind unhappy thou art blind	B
Yet still thou wanderest the lily seed to find	B
	-
So I will sit and think and think of the days gone by	C
Never moving my chair for fear the dogs should cry	C
Making no noise at all while the flambeau burns awry	C
	-
For my chair is heavy and carved and with sweeping green behind	B
It is hung and the dragons thereon grin out in the gusts of the wind	B
On its folds an orange lies with a deep gash cut in the rind	B
	-
Wind wind thou art sad art thou kind	B
Wind wind unhappy thou art blind	B
still thou wanderest the lily seed to find	B
	-
If I move my chair it will scream and the orange will roll out afar	D
And the faint yellow juice ooze out like blood from a wizard's jar	D
And the dogs will howl for those who went last month to the war	E
	-
Wind wind thou art sad art thou kind	B
Wind wind unhappy thou art blind	B
Yet still thou wanderest the lily seed to find	B
	-
So I will sit and think of love that is over and past	F
O so long ago Yes I will be quiet at last	F
Whether I like it or not a grim half slumber is cast	F
	-
Over my worn old brains that touches the roots of my heart	G
And above my half shut eyes the blue roof 'gins to part	G
And show the blue spring sky till I am ready to start	G
	-
From out of the green hung chair but something keeps me still	H
And I fall in a dream that I walk'd with her on the side of a hill	H
Dotted for was it not spring with tufts of the daffodil	H
	-
Wind wind thou art sad art thou kind	B
Wind wind unhappy thou art blind	B
Yet still thou wanderest the lily seed to find	B
	-
And Margaret as she walk'd held a painted book in her hand	I
Her finger kept the place I caught her we both did stand	I
Face to face on the top of the highest hill in the land	I
	-
Wind wind thou art sad art thou kind	B
Wind wind unhappy thou art blind	B
Yet still thou wanderest the lily seed to find	B
	-
I held to her long bare arms but she shudder'd away from me	J
While the flush went out of her face as her head fell back on a tree	J
And a spasm caught her mouth fearful for me to see	J
	-
And still I held to her arms till her shoulder touched my mail	K
Weeping she totter'd forward so glad that I should prevail	K
And her hair went over my robe like a gold flag over a sail	K
	-
Wind wind thou art sad art thou kind	B
Wind wind unhappy thou art blind	B
Yet still thou wanderest the lily seed to find	B
	-
I kiss'd her hard by the ear and she kiss'd me on the brow	L
And then lay down on the grass where the mark on the moss is now	L
And spread her arms out wide while I went down below	M
	-
Wind wind thou art sad art thou kind	B
Wind wind unhappy thou art blind	B
Yet still thou wanderest the lily seed to find	B
	-
And then I walk'd for a space to and fro on the side of the hill	H
Till I gather'd and held in my arms great sheaves of the daffodil	H
And when I came again my Margaret lay there still	H
	-
I piled them high and high above her heaving breast	N
How they were caught and held in her loose ungirded vest	N
But one beneath her arm died happy so to be prest	N
	-
Wind wind thou art sad art thou kind	B
Wind wind unhappy thou art blind	B
Yet still thou wanderest the lily seed to find	B
	-
Again I turn'd my back and went away for an hour	O
She said no word when I came again so flower by flower	O
I counted the daffodils over and cast them languidly lower	O
	-
Wind wind thou art sad art thou kind	B
Wind wind unhappy thou art blind	B
Yet still thou wanderest the lily seed to find	B
	-
My dry hands shook and shook as the green gown show'd again	P
Clear'd from the yellow flowers and I grew hollow with pain	Q
And on to us both there fell from the sun shower drops of rain	Q
	-
Wind wind thou art sad art thou kind	B
Wind wind unhappy thou art blind	B
Yet still thou wanderest the lily seed to find	B
	-
Alas alas there was blood on the very quiet breast	N
Blood lay in the many folds of the loose ungirded vest	N
Blood lay upon her arm where the flower had been prest	N
	-
I shriek'd and leapt from my chair and the orange roll'd out afar	D
The faint yellow juice oozed out like blood from a wizard's jar	D
And then in march'd the ghosts of those that had gone to the war	E
	-
I knew them by the arms that I was used to paint	R
Upon their long thin shields but the colours were all grown faint	R
And faint upon their banner was Olaf king and saint	R
	-
Wind wind thou art sad art thou kind	B
Wind wind unhappy thou art blind	B
Yet still thou wanderest the lily seed to find	B
