paddy reilly - fields of athenry lyrics
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
chorus
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 prison wall
i heard a young man calling
nothing matters mary when you’re free
against the famine and the crown
i rebelled they ran 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 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
[chorus]
