Testo The Fields Of Athenry

The Fields Of AthenryBy a lonely prison wallI heard a young girl calling"Michael they are taking you awayFor you stole Travellyn´s cornso that the young might see the morn´Now the prison ship lies waiting in the bay"By a lonely prison wallI heard a young man calling"Nothing matters, Mary,when you´re freeAgainst the famine and the CrownI rebelled, they ran me downNow you must raise our child with dignity"By a lonely habrour wallshe watched the last star fallingWhile the prison shipsailed out against the skySure she wait and hope and prayfor her love in Botany BayIt´s so lonely round the fields of AthenryLow lie the fields of AthenryWhere once we watchedthe small free birds flyOur love was on the wingwe had dreams and songs to singIt´s so lonely ´round the fields of Athenry
