Raving Winds Lyrics - Burns Robert

Raving Winds 

(Robert Burns) 

Raving winds around her blowing, 

Yellow leaves the woodlands strowing, 

By a river hoarsely roaring, 

Isabella stray'd deploring- 

'Farewell hours that late did measure 

Sunshine days of joy and pleasure! 

Hail, thou gloomy night of sorrow- 

Cheerless night that knows no morrow! 

O'er the Past too fondly wandering, 

On the hopeless Future pondering,- 

Chilly Grief my life-blood freezes, 

Fell Despair my fancy seizes. 

Life, thou soul of every blessing, 

Load to Misery most distressing, 

Gladly how would I resign thee, 

And to dark Oblivion join thee!' 

tune: McGrigor of Roro's Lament (207)
