Wild Mountain Thyme

Songs / Bardic Circle
Date: Dec 16, 2005 - 09:48 PM
Oh, the summertime is comin',
And the trees are sweetly blooming,
Where the wild mountain thyme
Grows around the blooming heather

Chorus
Will ye go, lassie, will ye go?
And we'll all go together to pick wild mountain thyme
All around the blooming heather.
Will ye go, lassie, will ye go?


I will build my love a bower
By yon pure crystal fountain
And around it I will grow
All the flowers of the mountain.

Chorus...

If my true love were to leave me
I would surely find another
Where the wild mountain thyme
Grows around the blooming heather.

Chorus...

Oh, the autumn-time is comin',
And the leaves are gently falling,
Where the wild mountain thyme
Grows around the blooming heather

Chorus...
I've been listening to the Emerald Rose version of this a lot of late, so I thought I'd post the words to this traditional song
