By  yon bonnie banks,  and by  yon bonnie braes
Where  the sun shines bright  on Loch Lo-mond
There  me and my true  love spent many  happy days
On  the bonnie, bonnie banks  o' Loch Lo-mond.
Oh,  ye'll tak' the  high road, and I'll  tak' the low  road
And  I'll be in Scotland before ye
But  me and my true  love will never  meet again
On  the bonnie, bonnie banks  o' Loch Lo-mond.
 'Twas there that we parted in yon shady glen,
 On the steep, steep side o' Ben Lomon',
 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 flow'rs spring,
 And in sunshine the waters are sleepin';
 But the broken heart it kens nae second spring,
 Tho' the waefu' may cease frae their greetin'
 (chorus)
