The man who gave me life
Is but and inch from death
With my heart torn in two
I go on my way
To hear the wisdom spoke
Upon his final breath

O'flaherty women
All that you've seen us through
We now can repay
Off from rockfleet with you
We go to c

Donal, you were born to marry a queen! too bad she's a ... pirate!

Donal
Clan o'flaherty men,
It's touching to see you
Friends should share
A great occasion like this
With the dawn i wed my o'malley beauty
I'll need help to face
The chall

Majella
Grania, captain
Things look bad
We've english sailors
Come on board!
Donal, ma'am
The man's a traitor
Holy god!
Protect us lord!
Donal, yes, your husband
Wants us to surrender!

Quickly now, i need my sword!

Here on this night, my life begins
Starting tonight my life sails on
Tonight the dream i fought for wins
And i'm with you until the dawn

I went to sea when i was ten
I'd sail the world for months or more
I would be leagues away, but then
I'd dr

What do i say?
What do i do?
How will i ever hope to fare?
How can i stay
So close to you
Knowing now that your place is
In another's embraces,
In another man's care?

I should be gone
Far from this hell
Till not a trace of you survives
Yet i'll stay

[tiernan]
If i said i loved you
All my life i loved you
Would the line be crossed?
Would the words make sense?
Would the thought be cause for concern?
Would you turn to frost?
Would you take offense?
Or perchance feel love in return?

[grace]
If i said i

DONAL
Grania's child, of course, friends
Has another parent
Humbled in remorse, friends
Shamed as he was errant
Please let a father
Stand by his son

Mock me with your cheer, lads
Salt my wounds with slander
Have you not a tear, lads
For your old commande

Dubhdara
My child, my grace,
A stow'way on my ship
And what a fool you've made me

I'm proud! i am!
I'll put away the whip
But still - you disobeyed me

For flouting me
As any sailor knows,
I'd have him keelhauled through the water
But when i think

Lord bingham. lords. what news of our empire?

Lords #1 and #2
Everything sails, your highness,
Troubles in france are dead

Nothing in wales,

Go flaitheas de agus

O eirigh in eineach le dia

Elizabeth:
What does she have i don't have?
What does she know i
Don't know?
I who have all,
I have nothing
Compared
To the dreams she holds fast
In her heart
Ever so...

What can i do i don't

Here i stand,
No crown, no land
And yet prepared to tender
My unconditional surrender
To pledge my plight, to reunite
A mother and her son.

This woman you chained,
This woman i love
Know just how brave she can be
And don't shed a tear, not for me
Her own

Dubhdara
All the clans of ireland
Are bogged down in ancient fueds

Donal
Like the feuds your kinsmen once began

Chieftan o'flaherty
Donal!

Dubhdara
Yes! and so the queen of england
Sees us and concludes
We're too weak to fight her empire's plan

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"

Dubhdara and clan o'malley
Give the girl a shot of whiskey
Set the pirate lady free
There are many clans in

The white of virgin skin
Unblemished, powedered, blank

On the sea of life
Trav'lers all are we
At it's mercy, to and fro
Where it takes us, there we'll go.
Tides may ebb and tides may flow,
Yet steady stays the sea

I'll do what i believe, and pray, prevail.
I'll stay fast to my course, succeed or fail,

Elizabeth
Yesterday they crowned my head,
Anointed me as queen
The girl that i once was is dead
And what is here
Must never be ... seen

Bring our robes
As we leave bed
Do not look, not once,
Or it's your head!

Each day at dawn when i choose to arise

Evleen
May god bless
The bride and groom
May he bless them both
Their love to bloom

Men and women
May he bind
Them evermore
St. patrick smile kind
Upon them both
And bless their union

May god bless
The bride and groom
On this day

GRACE
Woman I am born
What does "woman" mean?
Must my dreams face scorn
Held back and unseen

If I long for fire
Must it stay unreal?
Can I not desire?
Am I not to feel?

If I ache to taste
Am I not to try?
If my heary says sail
Why must I deny?<

ELIZABETH:
How dare you come,
I set you free to go home
So you could mother your son
Yet you set sail and you roam
And you insult me

You have a man-
His passion set him apart
He traded his life for yours
For him I softened my heart
Now you insult me!
