Loch Lomond



-traditional Scottish song from the late 1800's



By yon bonnie banks & by yon bonnie braes

When the sun shines bright on Loch Lomond

Where me & my true love were ever wont to be

On the bonnie, bonnie banks of Loch Lomond



CHORUS

O you'll take the high road & I'll take the low road

And I'll be in Scotland before you

But me & my true love will never meet again

On the bonnie, bonnie banks of Loch Lomond



I mind where we parted in yon shady glen

On the steep, steep side of Ben Lomond

Where in the deep purple hues the Highland hills we viewed

And the moon coming out in the gloaming



The wee birdies sing and the wild flowers spring

And in the sunshine the waters are sleeping

But the broken heart will ken no second spring again

And the world does not know how we're greeting
