And the wild mountain thyme Grows around the purple heather — Will ye go, lassie, go? [chorus1 | male+female duet | contralto present | tenor softened | no solo female | balanced blend | clean separation] And we’ll all go together, To pull wild mountain thyme, All around the purple heather — Will ye go, lassie, go? [instrumentalA | 8 bars | harp+fiddle+low flute | soft bodhrán | spacious natural room] [verse2 | male vocal | youthful tenor | no female | clean single-track] I will build my love a bower By yon pure crystal fountain, And ’round it I will pile All the flowers of the mountain — Will ye go, lassie, go? [chorus2 | male+female duet | contralto warm | tenor softened | acoustic swell gentle] And we’ll all go together, To pull wild mountain thyme, All around the purple heather — Will ye go, lassie, go? [instrumentalB | 8 bars | harp+fiddle+low flute | gentle 6/8 sway] [verse3 | male vocal | youthful tenor | no female | clean single-track] I will range through the wilds And the deep glen sae dreamy, And return wi’ the spoils Tae the bower o’ my dearie — Will ye go, lassie, go?

[chorus4 | male+female duet | contralto lifted slightly | tenor warm] And we’ll all go together, To pull wild mountain thyme, All around the purple heather — Will ye go, lassie, go? [chorus5 | male+female duet | slight lift | gentle variation | clean ambience] And we’ll all go together, To pull wild mountain thyme, All around the purple heather — Will ye go, lassie, go? Will ye go, lassie, go? [outro | instrumental | 16 bars | harp+fiddle+low flute | soft fade] [end]
