Mairi's Wedding

Step we gaily on we go, heel for heel toe for toe
Arm in arm and row in row, all for Mairi's wedding

Over hillways up and down, myrtle green and bracken brown
Past the sheiling through the town, all for sake of Mairi

Step we gaily on we go, heel for heel toe for toe
Arm in arm and row in row, all for Mairi's wedding

Red her cheeks as rowans are, brighter eyes than any star
Fairest o' them all by far, is my darling Mairi

Step we gaily on we go, heel for heel toe for toe
Arm in arm and row in row, all for Mairi's wedding

Plenty herring, plenty meal, plenty peat to fill her creel
Plenty bonny bairns as weel, that's the toast for Mairi

Step we gaily on we go, heel for heel toe for toe
Arm in arm and row in row, all for Mairi's wedding
