    Will Ye Go, Lassie, Go?

    by trad
    O, the summer time is coming
    and the trees are sweetly blooming
    and the wild mountain thyme
    grows a round the blooming heather
    Will ye go, lassie, go?

    ( Chorus
    and we’ll all go together
    to pluck wild mountain thyme
    all a round the blooming heather
    will ye go, lassie, go? )

    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?

    Chorus

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

    Chorus
