English text

In Dublin's fair city,
where the girls are so pretty,
I first set my eyes on sweet Molly Malone.
She wheeled her wheel barrow
R.:
through streets broad and narrow,
crying ”Cockles and mussels, alive, alive O!”

She was a fish monger,
and sure 'twas no wonder,
her father and mother were fishmongers too.
They drove a wheelbarrow
R.

She died of a fever
and nothing could save her
and that was the end of sweet Molly Malone.
Now her ghost drives a barrow,
R.
