Words by Ed. Harrigan. Music by Dave Braham.
Oh, those bells chiming so gay, oh, so gay.
Bride happy to-day. joyful day;
Welcome, oh, welcome,
It's massa's bright wedding morn;
Welcome, oh, welcome.
So happy from daylight 'till dawn.
Bells chiming so gay, oh, so gay,
Bride happy to-day, joyful day;
Oh, we wish them all good fortune on their way.
All hail, hail to the bridegroom and bride.
Oh, the cling clang of those bells gayly swells
Over the woodland and dell;
Welcome, oh, welcome.
We welcome with mirth and glee;
Singing and dancing
This day of our glad jubilee.
Cling clang of those bells gayly swells
Over the woodland and dell;
May their pathway through life happy be,
All hail, hail to the bridegroom and bride.
