Testo di Fields of Athenry

By a lonely prison wall i heard a young girl calling Michael they have taken you away For you stole trevelyn's corn So the young might see the morn Now a prison ship lies waiting the bay Low lie the fields of the athenry Where once we watched the small bird 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 prison wall i heard a young man calling Nothing matters, mary, when you're free Against the famine and the crown I rebelled they cut me down Now you must the raise our child with dignity By a lonely harbour wall she watched the last star falling As that prison ship sailed out against the sky For she'll live in hope and pray For her love in botany bay It's so lonely round the fields of athenry
