To Morfydd

A voice on the winds,
A voice by the waters,
Wanders and cries:
_Oh! what are the winds?
And what are the waters?
Mine are your eyes!_

Western the winds are,
And western the waters,
Where the light lies:
_Oh! what are the winds?
And what are the waters?
Mine are your eyes!_

Cold, cold, grow the winds,
And wild grow the waters,
Where the sun dies:
_Oh! what are the winds?
And what are the waters?
Mine are your eyes!_

And down the night winds,
And down the night waters,
The music flies:
_Oh! what are the winds?
And what are the waters?
Cold be the winds,
And wild be the waters,
So mine be your eyes!_
