Paroles de Fields Of Athenry

Through lonely prison walls I heard a young man calling: Michael, they are taking you away For you stole Travelyen'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 on the wing we had dreams and songs to sing it's so lonely round the fields of Athenry Through lonely prison walls I heard a young girl calling: Nothing matters, Mary, when you're free Against the Famine and the Crown I rebelled, they cut 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 Through lonely harbour walls she watched the last star falling as the prison ship sailed out against the sky For she'll live and hope and pray for her love in Botany Bay it's so lonely round the fields of Athenry 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 It's so lonely round the fields of Athenry
