Westron Winde
By UNKNOWN
Westron winde, when will thou blow,
The smalle raine downe can raine?
Crist, if my love wer in my armis,
And I in my bed againe.

This poem is from at least the 16th century, although most historians speculate it's hundreds of years older. Its tune was used as the basis for some pieces of Mass music.
