Wild Mountain Thyme

 

 

0 the summer time has come, 

And the trees are sweetly bloomin,

And the wild mountain thyme,  

Grows around the bloomin' heather.

Will you go, lassie, go?

 

Chorus  

And well all go together,  

To pull wild mountain thyme, 

All around the bloomin' heather.

Will you go, lassie, go?

 

I will build my love a bower, 

By yon cool crystal fountain,  

And around it I will pile, 

All the wild flowers of the mountain.

Will you go, lassie, go?

 

Chorus

 

I will range through the wild,  

And the deep glens so dreary.

And return with the spoils,  

To 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 you go, lassie, go?

 

Chorus
