Letra de The Fields Of Athenry
By a lonely prison wall I heard a young girl calling, 'Michael, they have taking you away. For you stole travelyns corn, So the young might see the morn, Now a prison ship lies waiting in the bay.' chorus Low lie the fields of Athenry Where once we watched the small freebirds 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 raise our child with dignity.' chorus By a lonely harbour wall, she watched the last star falling As the prison ship sail down against the sky For she lived in hope and prayed, For her love in botany bay It's so lonely round the fields of Athenry chorus It's so lonely round the fields of Athenry
