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 of Loch Lomond

Oh you take the high road an' I'll take the low road
And I'll be in Scotland before ye
But trouble is there and mony hearts are sair(sore)
On the bonnie bonnie banks of Loch Lomond

We'll meet where we parted in yon shady glen
On the steep steep side o'Ben Lomond
When in purple hue the highland hills we view
And the moon coming over the gloamin

Oh you take the high road an' I'll take the low road
And I'll be in Scotland before ye
But trouble is there and mony hearts are sair(sore)
On the bonnie bonnie banks of Loch Lomond

Still fair is the scene but ah, how changed
Are the hopes that we fondly cherished
Like a wat'ry gleam like a morning dream
On Culloden's field they hae(have) perished

The wild flowers spring and the wee birdies sing
And in sunshine the waters are sleepin'
But the broken heart It kens(knows) nae(no) second spring
An' resigned we may be tho' we're greetin'

On the bonny, bonny banks of Loch Lomond. 
O, 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
By the bonny, bonny banks of Loch Lomond.
