Texty: Original Broadway Cast. The Pirate Queen.
DUBHDARA AND CLAN O'MALLEY
Holy God
Bless this ship
With pride, and Clan O'Malley green,
DUBHDARA
I name this ship: "The Pirate Queen"
(Cheers)
DUBHDARA AND CLAN O'MALLEY
Give the girl a shot of whiskey
Set the pirate lady free
There are many clans in Ireland
Clan O'Malley rules the sea!
Tell the English merchant ships that pass here,
Treasure in their hold
That the Queen has come to liberate their gold!
TIERNAN
Chief Dubhdara's at the helm -
She's as sleek as she is fast
GRACE
I can feel her halyards creaking
As they strain against the mast
Feel the wind against my cheek
TIERNAN
Feel the ocean rise and fall
GRACE
I've seen many ships but she's
The most exciting ship of all
ALL
Holy God
Bless this ship
Here we sail, the Clan O'Malley
On the maiden Pirate Queen
In the whitecaps or the valley
We will pick the English clean
If the English planned to steal our land
They'll pay for it with war
As the pirates see
An Ireland free once more
