Lewis Bridal Song / Mairi’s Wedding Songtext
von The Irish Rovers

Step a gaily on we go,
Heel for heel and toe for toe.
Arm and arm and row and row,
All for Mary′s wedding.
Step a gaily on we go,
Heel for heel and toe for toe.
Arm and arm and row and row,
All for Mary's wedding.
Over hill ways up and down;
Myrtle green and bracken brown,
Past the shielings through the town;
All for sake of Mary.
Step a gaily on we go,
Heel for heel and toe for toe.
Arm and arm and row and row,
All for Mary′s wedding.
Cheeks as bright as Rowans are
Brighter far than any star,
Fairest of them all by far;
That's my darling Mary.


Step a gaily on we go,
Heel for heel and toe for toe.
Arm and arm and row and row,
All for Mary's wedding.
Step a gaily on we go,
Heel for heel and toe for toe.
Arm and arm and row and row,
All for Mary′s wedding.
Pelnty Herring, plenty Meal.
Plenty peat to fill her creel.
Plenty bonnie bairns as well,
That′s our toast 'o Mary.
Step a gaily on we go,
Heel for heel and toe for toe.
Arm and arm and row and row,
All for Mary′s wedding.
Step a gaily on we go,
Heel for heel and toe for toe.
Arm and arm and row and row,
All for Mary's wedding.
