Mairi's Wedding
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Step we gaily on we go heel for heel and toe for toe
Arm in arm and rovv on rovv, all for mairi's wedding
Over hill ways up and down / myrtle green and bracken brown
Past the shielings thro the town / all for sake of mairi
Plenty herring, plenty meal, plenty peat to fill her creel
Plenty bonny sairns as weel, that's the toast for mairi
Red her cheeks as rowans are, bright her eye as any star
Fairest of them ow by far is our darling mairi
Chant de noce de l'île de Lewis
