Wind on the Hill

No one can tell me,
  Nobody knows,
Where the wind comes from,
  Where the wind goes.

It’s flying from somewhere
  As fast as it can,
I couldn’t keep up with it,
  Not if I ran.

But if I stopped holding
  The string of my kite,
It would blow with the wind
  For a day and a night.

And then when I found it,
  Wherever it blew,
I should know that the wind
  Had been going there too.

So then I could tell them
  Where the wind goes....
But where the wind comes from
  Nobody knows.
