Traditional
Oh the summer time is coming,
And the trees are sweetly blooming,
And the wild mountain thyme
Grows around the blooming heather.
Will you go, lassie, go.
Chorus:
And we’ll all go together,
To pull wild mountain thyme,
Out around the blooming heather,
Will you go, lassie, go.
I will build my love a bower,
By yon clear & crystal fountain
And on it I will pile
All the flowers of the mountain.
Will you go, lassie, go.
Chorus
If my true love were to leave me
I can surely find no other,
To pull wild mountain thyme
From around the blooming heather.
Will you go, lassie, go.
Chorus
I will build my love a shelter,
On yon high mountain green,
And my love shall be the fairest,
This mountain has ever seen.
Will you go, lassie, go.
Chorus 2x
