Who Can Sail Without the Wind? (, ) is a Swedish-language folk song and lullaby known from Swedish speaking areas in modern-day Finland, assumed to originate from the àland-islands between Finland and Sweden in the Baltic Sea. The opening line is found in the fifth stanza of an 18th-century ballad, "Goder natt, goder natt, allra kärestan min" and in its current form the song was first published in 1909. The song relates to a theme that is common in seaman's songs â to be separated from those you love.
The English name of the song varies: "Who Can Sail Without Wind", "Who Can Sail Without <u>a</u> Wind", "<u>I</u> Can Sail Without The Wind", etc.
