Breath Of Wind

June 24, 2016 By Jessica Lily

24 Jun

Traditional Scots Gaelic
Arr. Stephanie Johnston
Additional Words: Elise Witt

BREATH OF WIND

Oh if I were a breath of wind, a sultry sighing breath of wind
I would kiss your cheek as you walked by
Oh if I were a breath of wind, I’d kiss your cheek.

Oh if I were the sun so hot, a burning ray of sun so hot,
I would kiss your brow as you walked by
Oh if I were the sun so hot, I’d kiss your brow.

Oh if I were the moon so bright, the glowing silver moon so bright
I would kiss your eye as you walked by
Oh if I were the moon so bright, I’d kiss your eye.

Oh if I were a star so high, a twinkling, glittering star so high
I would kiss your feet as you danced by
Oh if I were a star so high, I’d kiss your feet.

Oh if I were a lick of flame, a dancing swirling lick of flame
I would kiss your heart as you walked by
Oh if I were a lick of flame, I’d kiss your heart.

Oh if I were a drop of rain,a pitter patter drop of rain
I would kiss your lips as you walked by
Oh if I were a drop of rain I’d kiss your lips.
