irsk folkesang From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Molly Malone (også kjent som Cockles and Mussels, norsk: Hjerteskjell og Blåskjell) er en populær sang som har fått status som en irsk hymne. Sangen har blitt den uoffisielle hymnen for Dublin, hovedstaden i Irland.
In Dublin's fair city,
where girls are so pretty,
I first set my eyes on sweet Molly Malone,
she wheeled her wheel-barrow,
Through streets broad and narrow,
Crying, "Cockles and mussels, alive alive oh!"
"Alive-a-live-oh,
Alive-a-live-oh",
Crying "Cockles and mussels, alive alive oh".
She was a fishmonger,
And sure 'twas no wonder,
For so were her mother and father before,
And they each 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!"
