The North Wind

This song is not released yet, but I've been singing it out in the world. Feel free to learn it and sing it with your friends!

The north wind doth blow,

And we shall have snow,

And what will the robin, the robin do then, Poor thing?

He’ll sit in a barn,

And keep himself warm,

And hide his head under his wing,

And hide his head under his wing, Poor thing!

The north wind doth blow,

And we shall have snow,

And what will the swallow, the swallow do then, Poor thing?

Oh, do you not know

That he’s off long ago,

To a country where he will find spring,

A country where he will find spring, Poor thing!

The north wind doth blow,

And we shall have snow,

And what will the dormouse, the dormouse do then, Poor thing?

Roll’d up like a ball

In his nest snug and small

He’ll sleep till warm weather comes in,

He’ll sleep till warm weather comes in, Poor thing!

The north wind doth blow,

And we shall have snow,

And what will the honey-bee, the honey-bee do then, Poor thing?

In his hive he will stay

Till the cold is away

And then he’ll come out in the spring,

And then he’ll come out in the spring, Poor thing!

The north wind doth blow,

And we shall have snow,

And what will the child, the child do then, Poor thing?

When lessons are done

They will skip, jump and run,

Until they have made themself warm,

Until they have made themself warm, Poor thing!
