Mhàiri's Wedding.
The Lewis Bridal Song
Step we gaily, here we go
Heel for heel and toe for toe,
Arm in arm and row on row
All for Mhàiri's wedding.
Plenty herring, plenty meal
Plenty fish to fill her creel,
Plenty bonny bairns as weel
That's our toast for Mhàiri.
Step we gaily, here we go
Heel for heel and toe for toe,
Arm in arm and row on row
All for Mhàiri's wedding.
Over pathways up and down
Myrtle green and bracken brown,
Past the shieling through the town
All for sake of Mhàiri.
Step we gaily, here we go
Heel for heel and toe for toe,
Arm in arm and row on row
All for Mhàiri's wedding.
Bright her cheeks as rowans are
Brighter far than any star,
Fairest o' them all by far
Is our darlin' Mhàiri.
Step we gaily, here we go
Heel for heel and toe for toe,
Arm in arm and row on row
All for Mhàiri's wedding.
Plenty herring, plenty meal
Plenty fish to fill her creel,
Plenty bonny bairns as weel
That's our toast for Mhàiri.
