The Bonnie Banks o’ Loch Lomond:
Performed by Maeve MacKinnon feat. "Pipers Of The World" for Highland Saga Show

The Bonnie Banks o’ Loch Lomond
A very well-known Scottish song, which celebrates the beauty of the largest Scottish Loch (Lake) and it’s surroundings, but at the same time tells a sad tale. Interpretations are generally connected to the Jacobite rebellion of 1745 - assuming that the song depicts a conversation between two Scottish soldiers held captive by the English army. One version says one can return home (the high road), and the other will be executed and his soul will be transported back home to Scotland by the fairies (low road). Another says the survivor will take to the hills (high road), while the corpse of the executed soldier will be transported along the main (low) road. A song of love, loss and Scottish soul.

The Bonnie Banks o’ Loch Lomond Lyrics:

1) 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.

Chorus:
O ye'll tak' the high road, and I'll tak' the low,
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.

2) ’Twas there that we parted, in yon shady glen,
On the steep, steep side o' Ben Lomond,
Where in soft purple hue, the hieland hills we view,
And the moon coming out in the gloaming.

Chorus:
O ye'll tak' the high road, and I'll tak' the low,
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.

*Instrumental -

3) 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.

Chorus:
O ye'll tak' the high road, and I'll tak' the low,
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.
