    The poem describes wandering singers who roam from place to place with lutes in hand, singing songs. They consider the whole world their home as they have no close family ties in any one location. The singers perform songs about cities, battles, love, and tragedy, sharing folk literature and myths from the past with listeners. Their lack of personal relationships allows them to feel called by the wind to continuously travel to new places, like the sound of the wind is their voice urging them onward.
