Step we gaily on we go,
Heel for heel and toe for toe,
Arm and arm and row and row,
All for Mairi's wedding.
Over hillways, up and down,
Myrtle green and bracken brown,
Past the sheilings through the town,
All for the sake of Mairi.
Step we gaily on we go,
Heel for heel and toe for toe,
Arm and arm and row and row,
All for Mairi's wedding.
Red her cheeks as rowan's are,
Bright her eyes as any star,
Fairest of them all by far,
Is our darlin' Mairi.
Step we gaily on we go,
Heel for heel and toe for toe,
Arm and arm and row and row,
All for Mairi's wedding.
Plenty herring, plenty meal,
Plenty peat to fill her kreel,
Plenty bonnie bairns as well,
That's the toast for Mairi.
Step we gaily on we go,
Heel for heel and toe for toe,
Arm and arm and row and row,
All for Mairi's wedding.
