Testo Four Green Fields - The Dubliners
Testo della canzone Four Green Fields (The Dubliners), tratta dall'album 25 der Besten Irischen Kneipen Lieder, Vol. 1
What did I have?
Said the fine old woman
What did I have?
This proud old woman did say
I had four green fields
Each one was a jewel
But strangers came
And tried to take them from me
But my fine strong sons
They fought to save my jewels
They fought and they died
And that was my grief, said she
Long time ago
Said the fine old woman
Long time ago
This proud old woman did say
There was war and death
Plundering and pillage
My children starved
By mountain, valley and stream
And their wailing cries
They reached the very heavens
And my four green fields
Ran red with their blood, said she
What have I now?
Said the fine old woman
What have I now?
This proud old woman did say
I have four green fields
One of them's in bondage
In strangers' hands
That tried to take it from me
But my sons have sons
As brave as were their fathers
And my four green fields
Will bloom once again, said she
And my four green fields
Will bloom once again, said she
