Wind of healing that moved on the waters, Living once our Colm Cille. On by Islay and on by Jura And far from sight of his native Eire [Chorus] Wind of God, keen wind of creation Wind that clears the skies before us Bracing wind, all souls awaking All beareth on to the heart’s Iona Wind that bore then as sent from a sad land Soaked in blood, his wrath was shedding ‘Tis remaking on green Iona To a place of peace and life-giving labour [Chorus] Wind that wafted its breath to a far field, To his brothers faint with toiling, Scent of all, blossoms blent together Was less to breathe then, and bring them cheering. [Chorus] Holy breezes, the waters are waiting, Bring us too, to our remaking With the prayers of our Colum Cille Us sent our blossoms to aid and cheer us [Chorus]
