MAIRI'S WEDDING (Johnny Bannerman) cho: Step it gaily, off we go Heel for heel and toe for toe, Arm in arm and off we go All for Mairi's wedding. Over hillways up and down Myrtle green and bracken brown, Past the sheiling through the town All for sake of Mairi. Plenty herring, plenty meal Plenty peat to fill her creel, Plenty bonny bairns as weel That's the toast for Mairi. Cheeks as bright as rowans are Brighter far than any star, Fairest o' them all by far Is my darlin' Mairi. Written in Gaelic by Johnny Bannerman in 1938 Translated into English by Sir Hugh Robertson in 1939 @marriage @Scottish filename[ MAIRIWED TUNE FILE: MAIRIWED CLICK TO PLAY RG |
