1. Oh, the summer time is coming and the trees are sweetly blooming,
and the wild mountain thyme grows around the blooming heather,
will ye go, lassie, go?

Chorus

And we'll all go together, to pluck wild mountain thyme,
all around the blooming heather,
will ye go, lassie, go?

2. I will build my love a tower near yon pure crystal fountain,
and on it I will pile all the flowers of the mountain,
will ye go, lassie, go!

3. If my true love she were gone, I would surely find another,
where wild mountain thyme grows around the blooming heather,
will ye go, lassie go?
