Lyrics:

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 hill-ways up and down,
Myrtle green and bracken brown,
Past the sheilings, thro´ the town
All for sake o´ Mairi.

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.

Red her cheeks as rowans are,
Bright her eye as any star,
Fairest o´ them a´ by far,
Is our darling Mairi.

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.

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.

Plenty herring, plenty meal,
Plenty peat to fill her creel,
Plenty bonnie bairns as weel,
That´s the toast for Mairi.

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.

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.
