The OED is pretty unequivocal about this: "the normal pronunciation would be waind, to rhyme with behind, and this pronounciation remains dialectically and in ordinary poetic usage. The pronounciation wind became current in polite speech in the 18th century; it has been used occasionally by poets, but the paucity of rhyming words and the thinness of the sound are against its general use in verse. The short vowel of wind is presumably due to the influence of the derivatives windmill, windy, in which the short I is normal." Thank you, Mr Murray!
