lyrics

Wind of the air my love's on the sea
ho ro a ri a ro
ho ro a ri a ro

Make the weather calm and fine
ho ro a ri a ro
ho ro a ri a ro

Shoness Louthess and The Ray
Give good luck and fortune to him
Health and peace and length of life
ho ro a ri a ro
ho ro a ri a ro
ho ro a ri a ro
ho ro a ri a ro

da da da da da da da
da da da da da da da da
da da da da da da da
da da da da da da da da

Wind of the air
Wind of the air
Wind of the air
Wind of the air

Wind of the air my love's on the sea
ho ro a ri a ro
ho ro a ri a ro
