Lyrics
Our love was on the wing, for you stole trevelyan s corn, it s so lonely round the fields of athenry
Where once we watched the small free birds fly, where once we watched the small free birds fly
it s so lonely round the fields of athenry
so the young might see the morn
so the young might see the morn
we had dreams and songs to sing
By a lonely prison wall, it s so lonely round the fields of athenry
we had dreams and songs to sing
So the young might see the morn, low lie the fields of athenry, when you re free
i heard a young girl calling
it s so lonely round the fields of athenry
It s so lonely round the fields of athenry, we had dreams and songs to sing
it s so lonely round the fields of athenry
For you stole trevelyan s corn, where once we watched the small free birds fly, i heard a young girl calling
For her love in botany bay, by a lonely prison wall
So the young might see the morn, low lie the fields of athenry Brothers, where once we watched the small free birds fly
Our love was on the wing, by a lonely prison wall
It s so lonely round the fields of athenry, nothing matters Fields, we had dreams and songs to sing
Nothing matters, it s so lonely round the fields of athenry
so the young might see the morn
by a lonely harbor wall
It s so lonely round the fields of athenry, we had dreams and songs to sing
By a lonely prison wall, now you must raise our child with dignity
Our love was on the wing, so the young might see the morn
When you re free, they have taken you away, now you must raise our child with dignity
as that prison ship sailed out against the sky
Sure she ll wait and hope and pray, by a lonely prison wall
Our love was on the wing, they have taken you away
where once we watched the small free birds fly
I heard a young man calling, low lie the fields of athenry, we had dreams and songs to sing
she watched the last star falling
they cut me down
They cut me down, we had dreams and songs to sing
where once we watched the small free birds fly
By a lonely harbor wall, low lie the fields of athenry
Low lie the fields of athenry, low lie the fields of athenry
She watched the last star falling, low lie the fields of athenry
we had dreams and songs to sing
Nothing matters, where once we watched the small free birds fly
we had dreams and songs to sing
They have taken you away, it s so lonely round the fields of athenry Booze, by a lonely prison wall
our love was on the wing
Where once we watched the small free birds fly, by a lonely prison wall
By a lonely prison wall, now you must raise our child with dignity, low lie the fields of athenry
low lie the fields of athenry
it s so lonely round the fields of athenry
She watched the last star falling, we had dreams and songs to sing, we had dreams and songs to sing
they cut me down
Low lie the fields of athenry, low lie the fields of athenry Athenry, now you must raise our child with dignity
Our love was on the wing, it s so lonely round the fields of athenry, so the young might see the morn
Where once we watched the small free birds fly, for her love in botany bay, by a lonely prison wall
Sure she ll wait and hope and pray, low lie the fields of athenry
Where once we watched the small free birds fly, where once we watched the small free birds fly, against the famine and the crown
I heard a young man calling, it s so lonely round the fields of athenry
By a lonely harbor wall, where once we watched the small free birds fly
Where once we watched the small free birds fly, where once we watched the small free birds fly
For her love in botany bay, she watched the last star falling
Our love was on the wing, i heard a young man calling Fields, now you must raise our child with dignity
