Molly Malone

Pomnik Molly Malone w Dublinie, znany również jako The Tart with a Cart

Piosenka ludowa

In Dublin, fair city, where girls are so pretty

I first set my eyes on sweet Molly Malone

As she wheeled her wheelbarrow

Trough streets broad and narrow

Crying: cockles and mussels alive, alive oh!

She was a fishmonger but sure, ’twas no wonder

That so were her father and mother before

And they both wheeled their barrow

Through streets broad and narrow

Crying: cockles and mussels alive, alive oh!

She died of a fever and no one could save her

And that was the end of sweet Molly Malone

Now her ghost wheels her barrow

Through streets broad and narrow

Crying: cockles and mussels alive, alive oh!
