O the summer time has come
And the trees are sweetly bloomin`
And the wild mountain thyme
Grows around the bloomin` heather
Will ye go
lassie
go?
Chorus:
And we`ll all go together
To pull wild mountain thyme
All around the bloomin` heather
Will ye go
lassie
go?
I will build my love a bower (summerhouse)
By yon cool crystal fountain
And round it I will pile
All the wild flowers o` the mountain
Will ye go
lassie
go?
(chorus)
I will range through the wilds
And the deep glen sae dreamy
And return wi` their spoils
Tae the bower o` my dearie
Will ye go
lassie
go?
(chorus)
If my true love she`ll not come
Then I`ll surely find another
To pull wild mountain thyme
All around the bloomin` heather
Will ye go
lassie
go?
(chorus)
