  1. Music on the Breeze

    Music on the breeze
    There's music on the breeze tonight
    Hark, hear you what it sings
    It rustles thro' the orchard trees
    And gladsome news it brings
    It tells of sighs it listens to
    It brings new hopes to cheer
    A weary heart suspended
    'Tween doubts of hope and fear
    It tells a tale that's welcome to
    A breast loveladen sore!
    It bids it raise its courage up
    And drop so never more
    Ah! Welcome winds that bear such news
    Blow often and blow long!
    You little know what joy you give
    When singing such a song.
