Chorus:
Step we gaily, on we go,
Heel for heel and toe for toe,
Arm and arm and row on row,
All for Mairi's wedding.
Over hillways up and
down,
Myrtle green and bracken brown,
Past the sheiling, thro' the town,
All for sake of Mairi.
Chorus |
Red her cheeks as
rowans are,
Brighter far than any star,
Fairest of them all by far,
Is our darling Mairi.
Chorus
Plenty herring,
plenty meal,
Plenty peat to fill her creel,
Plenty bonnie bairns as weel,
That's the toast for Mairi
Chorus |
