Wild Mountain Thyme

O the summer time has come	
And the trees are sweetly blooming	
And wild mountain thyme	
Grows around the purple heather	
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?	

I will build my love a tower	
By yon clear crystal fountain	
And on it I will pile	
All the flowers of the mountain       
Will you go, lassie, go?      

I will range through the wilds      
And the deep land so dreary      
and return with the spoils      
to the bower o' my dearie      
Will ye go lassie go ?	     

If my true love she'll not come	     
then I'll surely find another	            
To pull wild mountain thyme	     
All around the purple heather		
Will you go, lassie, go?
