By yon bonnie banks and by yon bonnie braes,
Where the sun shines on Loch Lomond.
Where me and tea tree my true love spent many days
On the banks of Loch Lomond.
Too sad we parted in yon shady glen,
On the steep sides of Ben Lomond.
Where the broken heart knows no second spring,
Resigned we must be while we're parting.
You'll take the high road and I'll take the low road,
And I'll be in Scotland afore you.
Where me and my true love will never meet again,
On the bonnie, bonnie banks of Loch Lomond.
Ho, ho mo leannan
Ho mo leannan bhoidheach
You'll take the high road and I'll take the low road,
And I'll be in Scotland afore ye.
Where me and my true love will never meet again,
On the bonnie, bonnie banks of Loch Lomond.
You'll take the high road and I'll take the low road,
And I'll be in Scotland afore you.
Where me and my true love will never meet again,
On the bonnie, bonnie banks of Loch Lomond.
You'll take the high road and I'll take the low road,
And I'll be in Scotland afore you.
Where me and my true love will never meet again,
On the bonnie bonnie banks of Loch Lomond.
You'll take the high road and I'll take the low road,
And I'll be in Scotland afore you.
Where me and my true love will never meet again,
On the bonnie bonnie banks of Loch Lomond.
On bonnie, bonnie banks
Hey, Hey, Hey

Runrig est un groupe de folk rock écossais fondé par les frères Roderick et Calum MacDonald en 1973. Originaires des Hébrides (îles de l'ouest de l'Ecosse), leur musique rock s'inspire fortement de la musique traditionnelle gaélique. Après avoir conquis la Grande Bretagne, le groupe a maintenant une renommée internationale, après plusieurs tournées dans toute l'Europe.
Le nom « Runrig » (de runrigs ou rigs) affiche les racines écossaises du groupe, puisqu'il désigne une forme traditionnelle d'agriculture, en vigueur en Écosse du XIIe siècle au XVIIIe siècle. Il s'agit de l'allocation annuelle des terres aux fermiers, visant à constituer des exploitations équilibrées, au niveau de la qualité des sols.
