Testo Fields Of Athenry - An Cat Dubh
Testo della canzone Fields Of Athenry (An Cat Dubh), tratta dall'album An Cat Dubh Light
By a lonely prison wall
I heard a young girl calling
"Michael, they are taking you away
For you stole Trevelyan's corn
So that the young might see the morn
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 and the crown
I rebelled, they ran 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
And by a lonely harbour wall
She watched the last star falling
While the prison ship sailed out against the sky
Should she wait and hope and pray
For her love in Botany Bay?
It's so lonely round 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
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
