Oh the summertime is coming
and the trees are sweetly blooming,
and the wild mountain thyme
all around the blooming heather.
Will you go lassie, go?
Refrain
And we’ll all go together
to pluck wild mountain thyme.
All around the blooming heather.
Will you go lassie, go!
I will build my love a tower
near a pure crystal fountain
and on it I will pile
all the flowers of the mountain.
Will you go lassie, go?
Refrain
If my true love she were gone,
I would surely find another
where the wild mountain thyme
grows around the blooming heather.
Will you go lassie, go?
Refrain (2x)
