This song was the anthem of the Folk Night at The Bell in Burwash, East Sussex in England. The Sunday night folk nights always ended with this wonderful song. Nothing like a pub full of rat arsed patrons in full voice.

I don't know why but this song really touches my soul. Ever time I ever hear it,, i guess because I took much of my youth in,the blue ridge mountians. Playing in the creeks. And across the glens. And moutiansides. Remeber the mountain laurel blooming in,the spring. Every thing comes alive in,the spring time. And well all go,together. Some day. Thanks

Great interpretation, Thanks. There's also a 4th verse. The lyric was penned by poet Robert Tannahill from my home town here in Paisley, western Scotland. My mum lived on Tannahill's Street.... obviously not at the same time. Tannahill was a friend of Robert Burns. Sadly he committed suicide.

Sounds like you might know a bit about folk music of Scotland. I've been trying to find someone who might have heard some of Evan McColl's songs or put his poetry to music. Have you heard of the Mountain Minstrel? Sorry for my sideways comment but I know that Evan was a bit of a Robbie Burns fan.

@John-Evans 2 жыл бұрын

The lyrics are based on a Scottish custom from long ago. The girls would decide when they were “ready” to “receive” suitors. When they were, they would wear a sprig of Thyme on their lapel to tell the young men they were ready. The boys would then present a girl wearing such a sprig of Thyme with a bunch of flowers to demonstrate his interest in her. The song starts with an impatient boy who is wanting a particular girl to give him the signal. He is rushing her. He promises to heap a “bower” with flowers to show how much he loves her. The line which you mention I think is not about the landscape at all but a realisation that if one girl is not interested in him another will be. The unstoppable force of love…

It's not a Scottish song it was written by Francie McPeake who was from Belfast, his family still perform this a few generations on

@John-Evans Жыл бұрын

@@MrRupw No, not true, Francis McPeake did not write it, he just adapted it from the original which was written by a Scot. The lyrics are a variant of the song "The Braes of Balquhither" by Scottish poet Robert Tannahill (1774-1810) and the tune was composed by Scottish composer Robert Archibald Smith (1780-1829). The lyrics are clearly of Scottish not Irish origin. They are riddled with Scottish idioms. It is not even “Traditional” it is a copyrighted song/tune which performers should pay to perform in public.

Will Ye Go Lassie Go The Corries O the summer time has come And the trees are sweetly bloomin' The wild mountain thyme Grows around the bloomin' heather Will ye go, lassie, go? And we'll all go together To pull wild mountain thyme All around the bloomin' heather Will ye go, lassie, go? I will build my love a bower By yon cool crystal fountain And 'round it I will pile All the wild flowers o' the mountain Will ye go, lassie, go? And we'll all go together To pull wild mountain thyme All around the bloomin' heather Will ye go, lassie, go? I will range through the wilds And the deep glen sae dreary And return wi' their spoils To the bower o' my dearie Will ye go, lassie, go? And we'll all go together To pull wild mountain thyme All around the bloomin' heather Will ye go, lassie, go? If my true love she'll not come Then I'll surely find another To pull wild mountain mountain thyme All around the bloomin' heather Will ye go, lassie, go? And we'll all go together To pull wild mountain thyme All around the bloomin' heather Will ye go, lassie, go? And we'll all go together To pull wild mountain thyme All around the bloomin' heather Will ye go, lassie, go?

Hi Ernest! I'm not sure this comment is fair. First, note that in the description, there's a time stamp for "song begins at 2:48". So you can easily skip the talking. Second, you'll notice that this is from a live show. Part of a live show is banter with the audience. The audience appreciated the introduction, which is why I left it in. This video is intended to put you in the place of an audience member. It's not a music video. And again, if you don't want to hear the intro, it's easy to skip ahead with the time stamp in the description.
