Grace O'Malley: Born around 1530 in County Mayo, Ireland, Grace O'Malley, also known as Gráinne Ní Mháille, was a formidable chieftain and pirate. Following her father's legacy, she commanded the Ó Máille clan's fleet, engaging in trade and piracy along the Irish coast. Her defiance of English authority led to a historic meeting with Queen Elizabeth I in 1593, where she negotiated the release of her captured family members. Grace's leadership and maritime prowess have cemented her legacy as Ireland's Pirate Queen.
Lyrics:
Oh, I was born on Clew Bay’s shore
Where the winds do howl and the seagulls soar
In a castle high on Ireland’s green
'Twas there I grew to be a pirate queen!
A pirate queen, oh fierce and bold
Her story's worth its weight in gold
On stormy seas and foreign sands
Grace O’Malley ruled the land!
Yo ho, yo ho, Grace O’Malley leads the way
With cannon fire and sails unfurled, we’ll plunder all the day!
A life of loot and liberty upon the raging sea
Raise the flag of O’Malley, we sail wild and free!
My father taught me the sailor's trade
Not one to sit and weave or braid
I took to sea with a mighty crew
And claimed the coasts as my kingdom, too!
She sailed the ships from Clare to Spain
Bound by neither king nor chain
Fearless Grace with sword in hand
Would fight and die for her command!
Yo ho, yo ho, Grace O’Malley leads the way
With cannon fire and sails unfurled, we’ll plunder all the day!
A life of loot and liberty upon the raging sea
Raise the flag of O’Malley, we sail wild and free!
I met with England’s haughty queen
Elizabeth thought she could make me lean
But I stood tall, I did not bow
I kept my lands, I kept my vow!
She faced the Queen without a fear
No court or crown could bring her near
With Gaelic pride and iron might
Grace O'Malley won the fight!
Yo ho, yo ho, Grace O’Malley leads the way
With cannon fire and sails unfurled, we’ll plunder all the day!
A life of loot and liberty upon the raging sea
Raise the flag of O’Malley, we sail wild and free!
From Galway Bay to the Hebrides
I sailed upon the roaring seas
With a sword of steel and a heart of fire
For my pirate life, I’d never tire!
A pirate’s life, a pirate’s dream
To sail and fight in moonlit gleam
For Grace O’Malley’s legacy
Lives on in Irish memory!
Yo ho, yo ho, Grace O’Malley leads the way
With cannon fire and sails unfurled, we’ll plunder all the day!
A life of loot and liberty upon the raging sea
Raise the flag of O’Malley, we sail wild and free!
Yo ho, yo ho, forever she’ll be
Grace O'Malley, Queen of the Sea!
