I think it could be Snow it melts the soonest.

Last verse,

Oh never say me farewell here, no farewell I'll receive, But I will set ye tae the stile an kiss and tek your leave, And I'll stay here till the woodcock comes and the martlet takes its wing, Since the snow it melts the soonest when the winds begin tae sing.

From the Northumbrial Minstrelsy
