The Fields Of Athenry - Máiréad Carlin

作词：Pete St. John

作曲：Pete St. John

By a lonely prison wall

I heard a young girl calling

Michael they are taking you away

For you stole Trevelyn's corn

So the young might see the morn

Now a prison ship lies waiting in the bay

Low lie the fields of Athenry

Where once we watched the small free birds fly

Our love was once the ding we hard

Dreams and songs to sing

It's so lonely 'round the fields of Athenry

By a lonely prison wall

I heard a young man calling

Nothings matters Mary Wen you're free

Against the famine and the crown

I rebelled they ran me down

Now you must raise our child with dignity

Low lie the fields of Athenry

Where once we watched the small free birds fly

Our love was on the wing we had

Dreams and songs to sing

It's so lonely 'round the fields of Athenry

By a lonely harbor wall

She watched the last star falling

As that prison ship sailed out against the sky

Sure she'll wait and hope and pray

For her love in botany bay

It's so lonely 'round the fields of Athenry

Low lies the fields of Athenry

Where once we watched the small free birds fly

Our love was on the wing we had

Dreams and songs to sing

It's so lonely 'round the fields of Athenry
