Oh the summertime is coming

And the trees are sweetly blooming

And the wild mountain thyme

Blooms around the purple heather.

Will you go, lassie, go.



And we'll all go together

To pick wild mountain thyme

All around the bloomin' heather.

Will you go, lassie, go.



I will give my love a bowl

By young clear crystal fountain

And in it I will place

All the flowers of the mountain.

Will you go, lassie, go.



And we'll all go together

To pick wild mountain thyme

All around the bloomin' heather.

Will you go, lassie, go.



If my true love she won't go

I will surely find another

To pull wild mountain thyme

All around the purple heather.

Will you go, lassie, go.



And we'll all go together

To pluck wild mountain thyme

All around the bloomin' heather.

Will you go, lassie, go.
