wont you hear what roving cheer,
 * Was spread at Paddy's wedding O,

And how so gay they spent the day,
 * From churching to the bedding O:

First book in hand came Father Quipes,
 * With the brides dad the ballie O:

While the chanter with his merry pipes,
 * Struck up a lilt gaily O.

Teddery, taddery, &c.

Now there was Mat and sturdy Pat,
 * And merry Morgan Murphy:

And Murdoch Mags and Skags,
 * M'Laughlan and Dick Durfey O.

And then the girls rigged out in white,
 * Led on by Ted O'Reily O;

While the chanter with his merry pipes,
 * Struck up a lilt so gaily O.

Teddery, teddery, &c.

When Pat was asked if his love would last,
 * The chapel echoed with laughter O:

By my soul, says Pat, you may say that,
 * To the end of the world, and after O.
