By yon bonnie banks and by yon bonnie braes Where the sun shines bright on Loch Lomond Where me and my true love spent many happy days On the banks of Loch Lomond 'Twas there that we parted in yon shady glen On the steep, steep sides of Ben Lomond Where in purple hue the Highland hills we view And the moon glints out in the gloaming 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 On the bonnie, bonnie banks of Loch Lomond Where wild flowers spring and the wee birdies sing On the steep, steep sides of Ben Lomond But a broken heart it kens nae second spring Though resigned we must be while we're parted 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 On the bonnie, bonnie banks of Loch Lomond
