By yon bonnie banks and by yon bonnie braes,
Where the sun shines bright on Loch Lomond,
Where me and my true love were ever wont to gae,
On the bonnie, bonnie banks o' Loch Lomond.
Chorus:
For you'll take the high road and I'll take the low road,
And I'll be in Scotland afore ye ....,
Where me and my true love will never meet again,
By the bonnie, bonnie banks of Loch Lomond.
Twas there we parted in yon shady glen,
On the steep, steep side of Ben Lomond,
Where in purple hue the Hieland hills we view,
An' the moon comin' out in the gloamin'.
Chorus
The wee birdies sing and the wild flowers spring,
And in sunshine the waters are sleeping,
But the broken heart it knows no second spring,
Tho' the waefu' may cease frae their greetin'.
