By yon bonnie banks and by yon bonnie braes
Where the sun shines bright on loch lomon
Where me and my true love will never meet again
On the bonnie, bonnie banks of Loch Lomon

Oh, ye'll take the high road and I'll take the low
And I'll be in Scotland afore ye
For me and my true love will never meet again
On the bonnie, bonnie banks of Loch Lomon

'twas there that we parted in yon shady glen
On the steep, steep sides o' ben lomon
Where in a purple hue the heilan' hills we view
An the moon coming out in the gloaming

Oh, 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 Lomon

The wee birdies sing and the wild flowers spring
And in sunshine the waters are sleeping
But the broken heart it kens nae second spring again
Tho' the waefu' may cease frae their greeting

Oh, 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 Lomon
