Molly Malone is the name of the protagonist of an
Irish song. It is possibly one of the most famous and popular songs in the
country. It has become the unofficial Dublin anthem. It was composed around
1880 by James Yorkston and has become a true urban legend.
The song tells the story of a beautiful fisherman
named Molly Malone. She sells fresh seafood from a wheelbarrow in Dublin.
The girl died of a fever in the middle of the street.
It is sung that it was going through the streets of
the port area of Dublin, pushing a car and proclaiming "Cockles and
mussels, alive, alive,oh!"
People believe that her ghost continues to walk in the streets of Dublin.
In Dublin's Fair City Where the girls are so pretty I first set my eyes on sweet Molly Malone As she wheeled her wheel barrow Through streets broad and narrow Crying cockles and mussels alive, alive o!
She was a fishmonger But sure 'twas no wonder For so were her father and mother before And they each wheel'd their barrow Through streets broad and narrow Crying cockles and mussels alive, alive o!
She died of a fever And no one could save her And that was the end of sweet Molly Malone But her ghost wheels her barrow Through streets broad and narrow Crying cockles and mussels alive, alive o!
