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)
