Mairi's wedding



Traditional - Mairi's wedding - текст песни (слова)

1. Over hillways up and down
 Myrtle green and bracken brown,
 Past the sheilings through the town
 All for sake of Mairi.
 Chorus:
 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.
 2. Red her cheeks as rowans are
 Bright her eyes as any star,
 Fairest o' them all by far
 Is our darlin' Mairi.
 Chorus
 3. Plenty herring, plenty meal
 Plenty peat to fill her creel,
 Plenty bonny bairns as weel
 That's the toast for Mairi.
 Chorus
 Translated by Sir Hugh S. Roberton, 1936 from the original Gaelic (Mairi's Wedding)
