Western Wind
Western Wind, when wilt thou blow
The small rain down can rain?
Christ, if my love were in my arms
And I in my bed again!

Commentary: This poem is of unknown origin, but is probably dates back to Medieval times. It is thought to be a fragment of a longer love poem which is otherwise lost (the earliest surviving version of the lyric, titled “Westron Wynde,” dates to c. 1525).
