|
By yon bonnie banks and by yon bonnie braes, |
|
Where the sun shines all over Loch Lomond. |
|
But me and my true love will never meet again, |
|
On the bonnie, bonnie banks of Loch Lomond. |
|
So ye'll take the high road and I'll take the low road, |
|
And I'll be in Scotland afore ye; |
|
But me and my true love will never meet again |
|
On the bonnie, bonnie banks of Loch Lomond. |
|
'Twas then that we parted in yon shady glen, |
|
On the steep, steep side of Ben Lomond, |
|
Where in deep purple hue, oh, the Hieland hills we view, |
|
And the moon comin' out in the gloamin'. |
|
Now we'll take the high road and I'll take the low road, |
|
And I'll be in Scotland afore ye; |
|
But me and my true love will never meet again |
|
On the bonnie, bonnie banks of Loch Lomond. |
|
The wee birdies sing and the wild flowers spring, |
|
And in sunshine the waters are sleeping; |
|
But the broken heart will ken nae second spring again, |
|
Tho' the waeful may cease frae their greeting. |
|
So ye'll take the high road and I'll take the low road, |
|
And I'll be in Scotland afore ye; |
|
But me and my true love will never meet again |
|
On the bonnie, bonnie banks of Loch Lomond. |
