- Runrig perform their unofficial anthem, Loch Lomond live at Borlum Farm, Drumnadrochit, Loch Ness. This is an excerpt from their Year of the Flood DVD. This version is pretty much the same that got Runrig (Feat. The Tartan Army) to number 9 in the UK charts in 2007.
Lyrics:
By yon bonnie banks and by yon bonnie braes
Where the sun shines on Loch Lomond
Where me and my true love spent many days
On the banks of Loch Lomond
'Tis there that we parted in yon shady glen
On the steep sides of Ben Lomond
But a broken heart knows no second spring
So resigned we must be while were parting
So you take the high road and I'll take the low road
And I'll be in Scotland before 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**
Ho, ho mo leannan
Ho mo leannan bhoidheach
Ho, ho mo leannan
Ho mo leannan bhoidheach
Ho, ho mo leannan
Ho mo leannan bhoidheach
Ho, ho mo leannan
Ho mo leannan bhoidheach
Ho, ho mo leannan
Ho mo leannan bhoidheach
Ho, ho mo leannan
Ho mo leannan bhoidheach
Ho, ho mo leannan
Ho mo leannan bhoidheach
Ho, ho mo leannan (You take)
Ho mo leannan bhoidheach (The high road)
Ho, ho mo leannan (And I'll take)
Ho mo leannan bhoidheach (The low road)
Ho, ho mo leannan (And I'll be)
Ho mo leannan bhoidheach (In Scotland)
Ho, ho mo leannan (Before)
Ho mo leannan bhoidheach (You)
Ho, ho mo leannan (Where me and my)
Ho mo leannan bhoidheach (True love)
Ho, ho mo leannan (Will never meet)
Ho mo leannan bhoidheach (Again)
Ho, ho mo leannan (On the bonnie bonnie)
Ho mo leannan bhoidheach (Banks of)
Ho, ho mo leannan (Loch Lo-)
Ho mo leannan bhoidheach (-mond)
You take the high road and I'll take the low road
And I'll be in Scotland before you
Where me and my true love will never meet again
On the bonnie bonnie banks of Loch Lomond
You take the high road and I'll take the low road
And I'll be in Scotland before 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 before you
Where me and my true love will never meet again
On the bonnie bonnie banks of Loch Lomond (C'mon)
You take the high road and I'll take the low road
And I'll be in Scotland before you (You got it!)
Where me and my true love will never meet again
On the bonnie bonnie banks of Loch Lomond
On the bonnie bonnie banks
On the bonnie bonnie banks
On the bonnie bonnie banks
On the bonnie bonnie banks
On the bonnie bonnie banks
On the bonnie bonnie banks
On the bonnie bonnie banks
On the bonnie bonnie banks

*Oh, oh my lover
** Oh my beautiful lover
Scottish people are some of the warmest, kindest, and most hilarious bunch i've ever met, knows how to take life easy and have a deep love for their nature, which I have to say is the most beautiful landscape I've ever seen!
Sadly we're also the coldest, meanest, dourest folks you could ever meet, but the landscape is beautiful!
But you could be free! Make your own decisions
It’s beautiful
Thanks we try our best merry Christmas🏴🏴
@@SH-lm6ek sorry but are you Scottish or just dour yourself?

@@megablandetHe died on September 5,2023
I traveled a lot around the world. Scotland and the people are the best i ever meet.
R.I.P. Bruce, thank you for the songs ❤❤❤
05. of september is my birthday .... and last year my husband and i sat in front our house and raised a glass of wine... and this year... its for you Bruce 😘
September 2 is my birthday. My grandfather was from the Isle of Mull and Loch Lomand area. Got to visit 6 years ago and want to go back.
Thank you Bruce for keeping the scottish legacy alive. RIP my friend 🏴🙏
Sad to hear of Bruce's death
But his contribution to rich Runrig history will not be forgotten ,RIP from a British fan
I'm in love of SCOTLAND. You, the people who live there are very lucky. ¡ALBA GO BRAGH! I'm from MEXICO.
From South Australia here. Just mentioning that I hit like; because this bloody good!
Einfach grandios
Reminds me of my husband. Miss him so much.
I'm English. Hadn't heard of them. Stopped listening to the radio 30 years ago. A friend, Rob Hunter from St Boswells, who used to fell trees from my trucking days in 1969, when I carried timber from the Scottish borders - mainly to Wigan to be made into pit props, told me about them. Like my youth, all gone now. I think they're great, I watch and don't want the songs to end! Brilliant, thank you!
Habe die Tage den Song auf BFBS gehört. Dort sendeten Sie dirket und live aus dem Afghanistan Camp der Soldaten und machten einen Song Battle.
England,Scots and Irish aber der Song rockte alles und die Scots gewannen haushoch.Mit Zugabe ging der Song locker 10 min und ich bekam eine Gänshaut die bis heute anhällt. Fantastisch
in 1992 3 of us were in SCOTLAND - we are still friends and noboy will forget this - all our LOVE TO SCOTLAND
Scotland have my swedish 🇸🇪🇫🇮 Finland fans for them 🥰 Amazing country, and people❤ Feelt home in Inverness 🤗💚🌸
Amazing country with some of the best nature on the planet and the nicest people you could ever meet. Free Scotland! So proud that Bruce Guthro is Canadian too. Much adoration from across the Atlantic.
Greetings from the Highlands.. as Bruce has said - strong of spirit and deeply rooted.. we can share this music across the mighty Atlantic.
Free Scotland,yes please so we can get shot on the pimple of our bum.runrig highland band,with a Canadian lead singer,yep true Scotland anything that turns a pound,yes we are still in charge of the money great british POUND.no Scottish money,best thing in Scotland is the road south.what real man wears a skirt please remember most of the clans where on our side.look at your historical records before you pour your next iron brew in the very cheap whisky and go for your very cheap fish supper.
No problem Nick, a small country like ours loves you! Haste ye back my friend!
They voted against freedom just recently. God damn shame. Crapped on the bones of their forefathers.
As a MacDonnell of Glengarry Scotland and Loch Lomond THIS Hits Home to Glengarry County Ontario Canada 🇨🇦.
Memories of a memorable night with an extraordinary man who god took too soon . Thankyou running for making our 16 years a party . He was 37
So sad to hear of Bruce Guthros untimely death gone to soon may he rest in peace 🙏

Love y’all & Scotland with all my heart! 🏴💙💙💙💙💙💙
Love Scotland only been back two weeks missing Scotland already, can't wait to return to your beautiful country next year ❤️ R I P Bruce and thank you for your music 🙏 ❤️
This made me start to tear up. The emotion coming the band and the crowd is just incredible.
The most amazing day in my life, we were drenched, ankle deep in mud and our hearts were oh so happy. Runrig were amazing.
Hiya Kate, yes yes.. were you one of those girls by myself and my daughter Rachael (on my shoulders for a lot of the show).. The Wettest day in 100 years!! I believe.. Never forget it, nor the people dancing in the mud who we shared it with..
in loving memory off Bruce Guthro he was im sure a great man and he had tallent and bravery
My wife and I spent two days in Drumnadrochit while walking the Great Glen Way after a week in the far north climbing Munros. A wonderful tiny village of worthy memories. Cheers for a better year in 2021 from the grandson raised by a grandmother from Ayr. Long gone now but she never lost her love of her native Scotland, the Scots and all things scottish. Marion Wallace, born in Kilmarnoch in 1887. Pro Libertate!
have spent many a time in that place sleeping in a shed can't spell it with my kids in the seventies. It was a sqatt xxxxx
I was their last August my uncle lives in Drumnadrochit , went to Isle of Skye for a day was blown away by its beauty I made a promise that day I will be back..
@@gazza1858 hi, if you were impressed with Skye, I recommend you head further north to Torridon&Coigach&Assynt you will not be disappointed.🏴🏴🏴
R.I.P. Bruce 😢...
i went from germany to Borlum Farm on motorbike to see this guys. The whole trip i had perfect nice weather...exept the night Runrig was playing for us. .I was celebrating their music, together with thousands of scots in the mud. Full dirty and wet....it was one of the best nights in my life....so far.
Hi martin I lived a good part of my life in drumnadrochit and went back home for runrig show very special the year of the flood 😀
@@donaldfraser1555 nice :-) Next morning , when my girlfriend and i went through the village we where shocked how much mud and dirt the crowd left on the streets. Everyhing was covered and coloured in brown.
country rock as no one else can copy saw them live in my home town of Northampton sold out in two days
Original drumnadrochit man when runrig came to our village the greatest band arrived there was definitely a flood cheers vicars 😀
Not only is this a wonderful video, but we in America never got to see Runrig, or Bruce Guthro...the market was closed to them. Such a tremendous group we never had the chance to experience...
Sleep well Bruce xxxx
❤❤Farewell Bruce❤❤You are in our heart all the time❤❤
Thank God Almighty for Runrig. Being 65 years of age and been a music lover for my whole life, how in the world did I not discover this band until this year? Like many people I have my favorite artists where I love a lot of their material but nothing compares to these guys. Such amazing musicians that tug at every emotion imaginable. This is what real music does and if I live long enough and they're still performing , I will see them live for they have just become my favorite band of all time.
+5ourgang I found them maybe ten years ago. Thank God for internet radio or I might still not know them.
Year of the flood runrig
Hiya, I am John and I live in the highlands.. Sorry to hear you only just discovered Runrig.. I first saw the lads in a hall in Broadford in 1973 and have been a fan ever since. I played their first album on my hospital radio show. I was there at Drum about 20 miles from home.. They are a womderfull group, I hope you have a lot of enjoyment going through their back catalogue and all the amazing material that is appearing on-line since 2018.. Try some of their ballads.. They have quite a range of music - to suit all moods.. and it may sound corny - but tell a friend.. I'm on a campaign to turn the whole world to Runrig facing..
@@johngrafton729 Hi John, I'm mike from Germany. I first heard a song by Runrig in the early 80's. I was on the motorway with my truck when a song was played on the radio that immediately captivated me. I did not know the name of the song or the group that sang it. But I couldn't get that song out of my head. So I called the radio station and asked for the name of the group and the song.
It was "LOCH LOMOND" by RUNRIG ! Since that time I'm a big fan of the group RUNRIG. I bought all CD's and DVD's from them and I went to many concerts. I am currently in the process of translating all titles of the band from Gaelic/English into German.
who else can have anthems like alba or skye and rocket to the moon & dance called america are every bit the rock classics that the likes of paradise city or sweet child of mine are but were written in the 70's
Remembering my visit to Scotland some years ago. Thank you for the music, we will come again. Great country, great people!
Lord, it was wet! We wore our fishing breeks, and we were still wet.
Love every version of this song as an exiled true Scotsman living south of the border makes me even Prouder🏴🏴🏴
Move back and stop feeling sorry for yourself,sorry you are a jock so it's in the blood,proud to be a mash man,and remember the clans mostly supported the English when the spotty French boy paid a short visit,black watch great regiment,never retreated from battle,raised to put down the rebellion.i know more of your country history than most Iron brew and buckfast drinking skirt wearing jocks
I am for the first time in scotland,wandered at the banks of Loch Lomond and sailed today at Loch Ness,today based in Inverness.Never seen such an impressive nature and intensive holiday.Since decades I am a Runrig fan.🏴🏴🏴
With a tear in my eyes !!
So great - I miss you RUNRIG !
Best MUSIC ever - sounds so great and authentic ....
Thankfully
Markus :-)
Always hits me right in the heart.
Großartig! hatte das glück sie einmal live zusehen

My family said I'm from Scottish descent, I don't know that for sure but I know one thing for certain bagpipes and Scottish music can bring a tear to my eye.

I'm an American...and many of learn this song in elementary (primary) school. I've been singing Loch Lomond since I was 5-years-old -- and I am not even Scottish.
You are most welcome to enjoy one of the best bands ever, whatever nationality, take care.
Was at this totally amazing shame they have gone
outstanding band transport the music directly in nearly all hearts. Greetings from Germany
fantastic video i have just recently discovered Runrig & i love them xxx
I'm a very proud Scot. But overtime i hear this i feel so goddamn patriotic!!
Hell yeh
I'm a proud Englishman but heard this on a video of mountain bikers riding the West Highland Way (czcams.com/video/G5oedSA5J8o/video.html) and absolutely love it - fortunately music has no boundaries :)
Be proud!
I'm not even scottish, but Runrig always delivers those magic concerts, which makes you feel a part of something!
I'll always be happy that my father introduced me to these guys :D
As an American raised in the mountains of North Carolina where many Scots came to live, this brings tears to my eyes!
Scotland the brave
@@jakebrown5607 me too!! The McCleneys came from Scotland to North Carolina, then migrated to Tennessee then to North Alabama.
Go on bonnie Scotland 👍
Beautiful song! Love from Istanbul!
Wowwww what a voice
If this band every does a reunion tour, I swear I would follow wherever they went. I discovered too late and I’m devastated
You never know 2023 is their 50th anniversary . They could do a one off to celebrate .
@@johncameron8435 well, it´s 23, have you heard anything?
I´d be there!!!
I'm scottish n iv just listened to them researched homework they are legends here in bony scotland
Legends indeed SK and not just in bonnie Scotland!! Have you noticed Callum and Rory's tribute to Lesley (Craig I think) - the first woman in space who died in the challenger explosion.. - I f you haven't seen somewhere - give it a blast - if you have a Highland heart it will bring the emotion right up!! Best Wishes John Frae the Highlands.
I cried! Brilliant!
Love those guys they are magnificent and I just love Scotland. Wonderful song too.
The Geordies have Dire Straits, Scotland has this masterpiece! Glad to be a Northerner
you do know mark knopfler is scottish? he was born in glasgow, his brother is scottish too, we just loan him to our cousins the geordies who should also be scottish. newcastle has that magnificent anthem from local hero (set in scotland)
@@morrisshaw that I didn't know. Probably why he's so good at what he does
ACDC also Scottish but the Aussies always say there Aussie but they were born in Glasgow migrated to Aussie at about 10 years old, Bon Scott also Scottish
Devastating news today - last tour next year ....................... but making it a Runrig Day today - I'll be listening to their music for the rest of the day.
one of the best Songs ever
Ganz meine Rede :-) Nächstes Jahr geht's zum ersten Mal nach Schottland. Und wenn das Lied irgendwo in nem Pub gespielt wird, dann werde ich laut mitgröhlen 🙂
I love Runrig, and Scotland...Hi from England :D
RUNRIG ARE AWESOME!
I am going to see them in concert Saturday July 24th..... here in Denmark. I can't wait. They are AMAZING....
It allmost look like a Runrig concert here in Denmark, wee love them as our own, fantastic band
they were always apprecciated in europe which amazes me that they didn't become huge stars in america and canada where even those of irish descent claim to have scottish blood
run rig forever well done the brave band
Thanks a million to the amazing Scottish people for opening the borders of their beautiful country to visitors such as myself. You're beautiful people living in a beautiful land and you deserve your independence. Slàinte mhòr agad!
Seriously thanks to Scottish people? They are dictated to!! Nicole sturgeon is a control freak and hates the English!! Get over your self's. Listen to the lyrics
@@stewbeattie4316 We are, ultimately, controlled from a foreign country. The SNP and Sturgeon were democratically elected by the people of Scotland, unlike the people with the true power - in Westminster.
@@stewbeattie4316 Don't post absolute tripe. What a Moron you are.
Independence has a cost,pay for prescriptions,pay your own dole money you have plenty on it,set up your independent hospitals,pension fund,Scottish shops,no Tesco,Morrisons,Asia,have you any idea what it will cost you,Brent oil won't carry you through much,have your Independence. We have Culloden to remind us of how weak you are, think your country under the jacobites lasted about 43minutes under the command of a French boy.see how long you last on your own,by the way I am a porridge gobbler now in New Zealand.
If you're not from Scotland, leave independence out of this.
I love this song so much sad that I will never get to see them live but I have good memories with my family with it blasting out of the windows
Goosebumps!!
Absolutely amazing song and feeling!
Thank you as well for writing the lyrics and the translation!
Cheers!
I just cant get enough......wish to see them live
Thank you ,soooo much , free Scotland , this version ist absolutly great. Regards from a german in DK. Free for all people on this planet and a long musicway for this band.
Long live Scotland! Greetings from Germany

@@darthfader1970 you're not serious, Bruce does this song way better, albeit helped by a much superior arrangement
@@keirrobinson4156 To each their own,I prefer Runrig with Donnie
Me and my true love ❤️ will be there again in September, god willing.
