The Fields of Athenry

The Fields of Athenry - Indoor Garden Party/Russell Crowe/Alan Doyle/Samantha Barks

Composed by：Pete St John

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 dawn

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

By a lonely prison wall

I heard a young man calling

Nothing matters Mary when you're free

Against the famine 'round the Crown

I rebel 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

By a lonely harbor wall

She watched the last star falling

As the prison ship sailed out against the sky

So she'll wait she'll hope and pray

For her love in Botany Bay

It's so lonely around 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

It's so lonely around The fields of Athenry
