For those who don't understand this song I'll try to explain it in a short version. It's a Scottish song about two Scottish prisoners of war (English captives): One prisoner gets released, and the other prisoner is condemned and will be executed. None the less the condemned prisoner will never meet his true love on Loch Lomond again. The low road is underground (the grave) 6' above that is the high road. The executed prisoner will be in Scotland before his friend because he'll be there in spirit.
Wow quite a tear jerker explanation, as are all the explanations of this ancient song. Your has a twist I've never come across, in all the decades of explanations I have heard or read of.
@@kmora7360 At the time in Scottish history when "Loch Lomond" was a new song, the United Kingdom (which united Scotland, England, and Wales) had already been formed. But the Highland Scots wanted a Scottish, not an English King to rule. Led by their Bonnie Prince Charlie (Prince Charles Edward Stuart) they attempted unsuccessfully to depose Britain's King George II. An army of 7,000 Highlanders were defeated on April 16, 1746 at the famous Battle of Culloden Moor. It is this same battle that indirectly gives rise to this beautiful song. After the battle, many Scottish soldiers were imprisoned within England's Carlisle Castle, near the border of Scotland. "Loch Lomond" tells the story of two Scottish soldiers who were so imprisoned. One of them was to be executed, while the other was to be set free. According to Celtic legend if someone dies in a foreign land, his spirit will travel to his homeland by "the low road" - the route for the souls of the dead. In the song, the spirit of the dead soldier shall arrive first, while the living soldier will take the "high road" over the mountains, to arrive afterwards. The song is from the point of view of the soldier who will be executed: When he sings, "ye'll tak' the high road and I'll tak' the low road" in effect he is saying that you will return alive, and I will return in spirit. He remembers his happy past, "By yon bonnie banks ... where me and my true love were ever wont to gae [accustomed to go]" and sadly accepts his death "the broken heart it ken nae [knows no] second Spring again." www.manhattanbeachmusic.com/html/loch_lomond.html#:~:text=%22Loch%20Lomond%22%20tells%20the%20story,the%20souls%20of%20the%20dead
Whenever I feel tired or sad..I close my eyes and remember my trip to the Highlands with my fiancé, almost 4 years ago. Those are my favorite memories together. There are no words to describe how deeply I love Scotland. It's something that comes from my heart and I can't explain why. I hope to be back soon, because I miss Scotland so SO much. ❤️🏴❤️
In 1965 when i was 10 studying in Ashby Road School, Ipoh, Standard 3, i larned this song. It has remained with me all these years. Very touching and sad with the haunting music. And i sang this song on the actual Loch Lomomd It was a special moment to reconnect with years gone bye
That singer is one of a kind. No wonder the Scots settled in my country Smoky Mountains NC It looks l a lot like Scotland. We still use a lot of Scottish words.
Yes, my husband’s family is from Scotland(McCleney). They came here and settled in North Carolina, then migrated over and down to Tennessee and then North Alabama, where we stayed.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH for your explanation. When I was a young girl, I sang it in the chorus in my high school in Montevideo, Uruguay. I was always delighted with this lovely song. THANK you very much
My gosh that is such a beautiful rendition. I don't now how could I have missed this for four years. This is one of the songs my dad used to sing on long drives because we had no radio in the chevy. When I was 3 or 4 yers old this is the first song my father ever explained for me.
I heard this song sung in a highschool auditorium back in 2001, teared up real good. 23 years later I still think about this song from time to time. I'm Caribbean living in the Bronx and love how music connects us all. Long live Scotland, long live love ❤❤
Scottish born & bred, and Australian since my eighth birthday, but songs like this (one of my all-time favourites from home), draw you back again and again. Add a drum and the skirl of the pipes and you realize that you never really left in thee first place. And what a beautiful , uplifting version of The Bonnie Banks of Loch Lomond this is; one od the best I've ever heard, and believe me, I've heard many. I don't know how many times I've played this clip, but I just love to hear it, and to watch the vodeo. I.m now 77, and I want to thank you so much for taking back home to the wonderful land where I was born & ensuring I don't forget it. I love Australia, but part of me will always be in Scotland, the land of my birth.
My Daddy moved to Australia when he was 18, 2 days later he joined the Australian army. He served his new nation fighting in Vietnam, he saw many atrocities and many many good friends die in Vietnam and then all his big group of friends die from rare cancers and undiagnosed PTSD. He is now on his death bed and even though he isn’t conscious as soon as I started playing this he started to move. It is breathtaking and I will always treasure this memory of playing it to him before he passes onto his eternal home. He loves Australia but has always loved Scotland and wore his kilt with pride at all his children’s weddings. Thank you for such a beautiful rendition.
@@HighlandSaga thank you, that brought tears to my eyes. This will now be a favourite video in our home. I showed my 8 year old this and we’ve decided we will go and spread some of his ashes at Loch Lomond one day.
@@jesusreignsoveraustralia This is a very beautiful and honourable undertaking. His soul will be waiting for you there. He will be reunited with all his ancestors who lost their lives on many battlefields of the world. „I hope you will tell the story of this Highland Saga to all your friends and with it the moral of this tale. If we must do battle let our weapons be music.“
As a Scot living away from home this just brings a tear or two to the eye. The build up to the Bagpipes part is brilliant . Love it . Happy New 2022 to all around the world.
Me mither ( as she'd say) used to sing this song or Galway Bay, as she washed the supper dishes, when I was small. ❤ I didnt know this story. I thought they were soldiers going to battle and one of them, just knew he wouldn’t be coming home to see his love, again. 🙏💕
My daddy taught me this song when I was 5 and he only sang it with me when we would go in the car together. This song makes me cry it has touched my heart deaply
I remember my grandmother singing this and many others to me instead of lullabies. She has been gone nearly 30 years and I still hear her soft lilting voice when I listen to this.
I visited Lock Lomand five years ago to visit where my grandfather grew up. Absolutely beautiful place! I want to return before my long sleep. It was so strange to feel at home when I had never been there before. The highlanders certainly are a lucky lot.
😊Learnt this song when I was a wee little lass in school way out in the island of Trinidad West Ind. Under British Rule Still Hauntingly beautiful to my 78 yr.old memory ♥️ 😊
My favorite song. Maeve's beautiful voice, the scenery. And those guys in kilts. The drummer ramrod straight banging on the drums and the other guy playing the bagpipes so beautifully. I love the entire video. ❤️. 👍
I learned this song in primary school when I was about 12 years of age. In Kuala Lumpur. My teacher Miss Coelho had her teacher training in Kirby Training college, England. She returned and taught us to sing many folks songs from UK. She also met a Scotsman there and they got married the year after. She left Malaysia n went with her husband to Papua New Quinea where he was posted. She sent postcards back a couple of times. But I never saw my beloved teacher again. God bless her.
this evergreen is several hundred years old, but my musician's soul and my heart still rise when I can hear it sung by such a wonderfully warm voice from Ella Roberts. 1000 thanks from my heart and soul
@@HighlandSaga Excuse me, but those who can read have a clear advantage. :-) You described in the info attachment that Maeve MacKinnon sing this song. Please forgive me. Many thanks for the information, also for your wonderful creative work, many thanks to the Highland Saga team. Best regards
Just pop on my wall, then I search for Highland Saga, nice Melody... I don't know what really the song for, but thruthfully it goes deep down to my soul...
@@HighlandSaga I'm a singer-songwriter and wish I could write songs like this! And sing that good! I wrote my first song for my father who passed away in 2014. I love the title Kommer sol, kommer skratt (With the sun comes the joy.) Hope to hear more from you! ❤
I am not meaning to run up the watch count on this video, but I just cannot get enough of this arrangement. There is something about this song that stabs at the heart of my spirit. I come back to it day after day. I’ve been to Ireland but I think I missed out on going to Scotland. Very, very, beautiful.
A wonderful version of this great song. I am English, and not as bad as some Scots may think, and the way this song is sung sounds really authentic to my ears.
I knew that some Cologne bands use music from Ireland and Scotland for their songs and sing lyrics in Cologne dialect. But this is the first time I've heard that the music for the 1. FC Cologne anthem comes from this song. Thank you for the music! Now I'll remember my vacation in Scotland even more when I sing the anthem!
Beautiful song translated into Spanish. Por aquellas hermosas costas y colinas Donde el sol brilla, en el Lago Lomond. Donde yo y mi verdadero amor pasábamos muchos días En las hermosas,hermosas orillas del lago Lomond. Tú tomarás el camino alto, yo tomaré el bajo, Y llegare a Escocia, antes que tú; Pero yo y mi verdadero amor nunca nos volveremos a encontrar En las hermosas,hermosas orillas del Lago Lomond. Fue allí donde nos separamos en aquel sombrío valle En las empinadas y empinadas laderas del Ben Lomond Viendo en tonos púrpuras las colinas bajo el horizonte de las tierras altas, Y la luna saliendo al anochecer. Tú tomarás el camino alto, yo tomaré el bajo, Y llegare a Escocia, antes que tú; Pero yo y mi verdadero amor nunca nos volveremos a encontrar En las hermosas,hermosas orillas del Lago Lomond. Los pajarillos cantan,las flores silvestres florecen Y bajo los rayos del sol duermen las aguas. Pero el corazón roto no volverá a florecer Aunque los que están tristes dejen de llorar Tú tomarás el camino alto, yo tomaré el bajo, Y llegare a Escocia, antes que tú; Pero yo y mi verdadero amor nunca nos volveremos a encontrar En las hermosas,hermosas orillas del Lago Lomond.
Me and my family were supposed to move to Scotland but couldn't becuase of Covid-19, i was deeply upset and this song makes me want to go even more but it lso makes me feel like i am there. thank you for posting this song. i love it very much. :)

@@ANAORTIZALAR Nothing like a timeless sense of nostalgia. I am happy to share the feeling with you.
Beautiful song. Thank you for explaining the story. My paternal family was from Wales. Guess that’s close enough 😊
Fabulous rendition, the first time I heard this was in Sherlock Holmes, Pursuit To Algiers, and I've loved it since, this is my favorite so far
Loch Lomond is basically on the outskirts of my hometown Glasgow. Place of beauty
This Celtic origin people are really magical.
I still adore this beautiful song. I learned this song when I was a little girl from my mother. ❤❤❤

Por aquellas hermosas costas y colinas
Donde el sol brilla, en el Lago Lomond.
Donde yo y mi verdadero amor pasábamos muchos días
En las hermosas,hermosas orillas del lago Lomond.
Tú tomarás el camino alto, yo tomaré el bajo,
Y llegare a Escocia, antes que tú;
Pero yo y mi verdadero amor nunca nos volveremos a encontrar
En las hermosas,hermosas orillas del Lago Lomond.
Fue allí donde nos separamos en aquel sombrío valle
En las empinadas y empinadas laderas del Ben Lomond
Viendo en tonos púrpuras las colinas bajo el horizonte de las tierras altas,
Y la luna saliendo al anochecer.
Tú tomarás el camino alto, yo tomaré el bajo,
Y llegare a Escocia, antes que tú;
Pero yo y mi verdadero amor nunca nos volveremos a encontrar
En las hermosas,hermosas orillas del Lago Lomond.
Los pajarillos cantan,las flores silvestres florecen
Y bajo los rayos del sol duermen las aguas.
Pero el corazón roto no volverá a florecer
Aunque los que están tristes dejen de llorar
Tú tomarás el camino alto, yo tomaré el bajo,
Y llegare a Escocia, antes que tú;
Pero yo y mi verdadero amor nunca nos volveremos a encontrar
En las hermosas,hermosas orillas del Lago Lomond.
Love this. Auld lang syne too. Such a good singer :)
Beautiful but haunting song. Beautiful Scotland.
