Ben J W Anthony - Loch Lomond (Alba)

By yon bonnie banks and by yon bonnie braes
Where the sun shines bright on Loch Lomond
Where me and my true love will never meet again
On the bonnie, bonnie banks o' Loch Lomond
O ye'll take' the high road, and I'll take' the low road
And I'll be in Scotland a'fore ye
But me and my true love will never meet again
On the bonnie, bonnie banks o' Loch Lomond
'Twas there that we parted, in yon shady glen
On the steep, steep side o' Ben Lomond
Where in soft purple hue, the highland hills we view
And the moon coming out in the gloaming
O ye'll take' the high road, and I'll take' the low road
And I'll be in Scotland a'fore ye
But me and my true love will never meet again
On the bonnie, bonnie banks o' Loch Lomond
O braw Charlie Stewart, dear true, true heart
Wha could refuse thee protection
Like the weeping birk on the wild hillside
How graceful he looked in dejection
O ye'll take' the high road, and I'll take' the low road
And I'll be in Scotland a'fore ye
But me and my true love will never meet again
On the bonnie, bonnie banks o' Loch Lomond
The wee birdies sing and the wildflowers spring
And in sunshine the waters are sleeping
But the broken heart it kens nae second spring again
Though the waeful may cease frae their grieving
O ye'll take' the high road, and I'll take' the low road
And I'll be in Scotland a'fore ye
But me and my true love will never meet again
On the bonnie, bonnie banks o' Loch Lomond
