Oh the summer time is come
And the trees are sweetly blooming,
And the wild mountain thyme
Grows around the purple heather.
Will ye go, lassie, go?

Chorus:
And we’ll all go together
To pluck wild mountain thyme
All around the blooming heather.
Will ye go, lassie, go?

II would build my love a bower
By yon clear and crystal fountain:
And on it I will pile
All the flowers of the mountain.
Will ye go, lassie, go?

Chorus

If my own true love were gone,
I would ne’er find another
Where wild mountain thyme
Grows around the purple heather.
Will ye go, lassie, go?

Chorus
