O the summer time has come (...is comin')
And the trees are sweetly blooming (turning)
And the wild mountain thyme
Grows around the purple heather.
Will you go, lassie, go?

Chorus -
And we'll all go together,
To pull wild mountain thyme,
All around the purple heather  (blooming heather)
Will you go, lassie, go?

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

Chorus

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 ?

Chorus

If my true love she'll not come, ("she won't have me" "...she were gone" or "... e'er should leave me")
Then I'll surely find another,
To pull wild mountain thyme,
All around the purple heather
Will you go, lassie, go?

Chorus

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

Chorus
