Willie My Brave Lyrics and Tune

WILLIE MY BRAVE, 1851

LYRICS


On the lonely sea-beat shore
A maiden fair was weeping,
Calling one who far away
Beneath the wave was sleeping.
Thus her sad unchanging strain
Floated ever on the main

Refrain:

Come o’er the billow,
Ride on the wave,
Come while the wind bloweth,
Willie my brave!
