Oh, the summertime is coming And the trees are sweetly blooming And the wild mountain thyme Grows around the blooming heather (Chorus) Will ye go, lassie, go? And we'll all go together To pluck wild mountain thyme All around the blooming heather Will ye go, lassie, go? I will build my love a bower By yon pure crystal fountain And I, I will pile All the flowers of the mountain (Chorus) If my true love, she would die I would surely find another Where the wild mountain thyme Grows around the blooming heather (Chorus) Let us go to the banks of the ocean Where the walls rise above the Zuiderzee Long ago, I used to be a young man And dear Margaret remembers that for me Let us go to the banks of the ocean Where the walls rise above the Zuiderzee Long ago, I used to be a young man And dear Margaret remembers that for me And we'll all go together To pluck wild mountain thyme All around the blooming heather Will ye go, lassie, go? And we'll all go together To pluck wild mountain thyme All around the blooming heather Will ye go, lassie, go?
