Esta é a famosa canción de Molly Malone, cantada polo grupo The Dubliners, canción que é casi como un himno para os dublineses, e que conta a vida da famosa e querida pescadera Molly Malone.
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 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 father and mother before,
'And they both wheeled their barrow,
'Through streets broad and narrow,
'Crying, "Cockles and mussels, alive, alive oh!"
(chorus)
'Now I was a Rover,
'And sailed the seas over,
'So I bid my farewell to sweet Molly Malone.
'And as I was sailing,
'The wild wind was wailing,
'Crying, "Cockles and mussels, alive, alive oh!"
(chorus)
'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!"
(chorus)

Oscar Wilde en Merrion Square
"Manifa"
Stephen´s Green Shopping CentreContinuamos ca viaxe. Levántome, chamou ó meu irmán e imos de paseo. Comenzamos polos parques Saint Stephen´s Green e Merrion Square e visitamos a estatua adicada a Oscar Wilde. Voltamos por Grafton Street (rúa moi transitada, pois nela hai numerosas tendas, cafés, estatuas humanas, actuacións na rúa...) E foi alí onde pillounos a cámara da televisión irlandesa, pois coincidimos cunha "manifa" pedindo o sí no referendum sobre o tratado de Lisboa. Seguimos camiñando e entramos no Stephen´s Green Shopping Centre, un centro comercial enorme cheo de tendas e cun reloxio enorme colgado do teito. Arquitectónicamente falando, este centro comercial é unha pasada. Fago as primeiras compras, acompaño ó meu irmán cara a estación de bus, pois el ten que marcha cara Cork e eu quedo en Dublin. Son ás 15:00 horas do domingo 8 de xuño.
