Oh the summertime is coming
And the trees are sweetly blooming
And the wild mountain thyme
Grows around the purple heather
Will you go, lassie, will you go
And we will all go together
To pick wild mountain thyme
All around the purple heather
Will you go, lassie, will you go

I will build my love a bower
By yon pure and crystal fountain
Yes and on it I will lay
All the flowers of the mountain
Will you go, lassie, will you go

And we will all go together
To pick wild mountain thyme
All around the purple heather
Will you go, lassie, will you go

If my true love won’t come with me
I will surely find another
To pick wild mountain thyme
All around the blooming heather
Will you go, lassie, will you go
And we will all go together
To pick wild mountain thyme
All around the purple heather
Will you go
Will you go, lassie, will you go
