For the summertime is coming.
And the leaves are sweetly blooming
And the wild mountain thyme
Blooms around the purple heather

[Chorus:]
Will you go lassie, go?
And we'll all go together
To pull wild mountain thyme
All around the purple heather
Will you go, lassie go?

If my true love will not go
I will surely find another
To pull wild mountain thyme,
All around the purple heather

[Chorus]

I will build my love a bower
By yon clear an crystal fountain
And in it I will pile
All the flowers of the mountain

[Chorus]
