Lyrics and translation

Original

I found myself out walking, out by the heather bell.
The lights were on and music played from the wedding on the hill.
I pushed the door wide open, the room was running wild.
There was beauty on the dance floor, and then she turned and smiled. She's got emerald eyes and I wanna make her mine.
Oh, she sways and shakes, moves her body like a snake.
She's a beauty, she's a queen, the best I've ever seen, and she stole my heart when I met her at the wedding.
The fiddler broke the window, the best man lost his tie.
The piper kissed the bridesmaid and drank the whiskey dry.
The bride was on the tables, the groom was on the floor, and then she signaled to me and headed for the door.
She's got emerald eyes and I wanna make her mine.
Oh, she sways and shakes, moves her body like a snake.
She's a beauty, she's a queen, the best I've ever seen, and she stole my heart when I met her at the wedding.
Oh, she danced around the heather like the moonlight on the glen. Every step she takes forever,
I'll be chasing her again.
The river through the valley, she was flowing wild and free. When I see those big green eyes, oh, I hope she marries me.
She's got emerald eyes and I wanna make her mine.
Oh, she sways and shakes, moves her body like a snake.
She's a beauty, she's a queen, the best I've ever seen, and she stole my heart when I met her at the wedding.
