Step we gaily on we go, Heel and heel And toe for toe, Arm and arm And row and row, All for Marie's wedding. Over hillways, up and down, Myrtle green and bracken brown, Past the sheilings through the town All for the sake of Marie. Step we gaily on we go, Heel and heel And toe for toe, Arm and arm And row and row, All for Marie's wedding. Red her cheeks as Rowan's are, Bright her eyes as any star. Fairest of them all by far, Is our darlin' Marie. Step we gaily on we go, Heel and heel And toe for toe, Arm and arm And row and row, All for Marie's wedding. Plenty herring, plenty meal, Plenty peat to fill her kreel. Plenty bonnie bairns as well, That's the toast for Marie. Step we gaily on we go, Heel and heel And toe for toe, Arm and arm And row and row, All for Marie's wedding.

Oh how the light shone
