about

Lively Celtic song about a wedding procession

lyrics

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

Over hillways up and down, myrtle green and bracken brown,
Pass the sheilling through the town, all for Mairi's wedding. chorus

Plenty herring, plenty meal; plenty peat to fill her creel,
Plenty bonny bairns as well, that's our toast for Mairi. chorus

Cheeks a'bright as rowans are, brighter far than any star,
Fairest of them all, by far, that's our darlin' Mairi. chorus
