In Dublin's fair city,\\
Where girls are so pretty,\\
I first set my eyes on sweet Molly Malone,\\
As she pushed her wheelbarrow\\
Through streets broad and narrow,\\
Crying, Cockles and mussels, alive, alive oh! \\
Alive, alive oh! alive, alive oh!\\
Crying, Cockles and mussels, alive, alive oh!

And sure twas no wonder,\\
For so were her mother and father before,\\
And they each wheeled their wheelbarrow,\\
