[00:07.35]By a lonely prison wall
[00:10.62]I heard a young girl calling:
[00:12.81]\"Michael they've taken you away
[00:24.24]For you stole Trevelyn's corn
[00:27.72]So the young might see the morn
[00:31.29]Now the prison ship lies waiting in the bay\"
[00:41.85]Refrain:
[00:42.03]Low lie the Fields Of Athenry
[00:42.87]Where once we watched the small free birds fly
[00:54.15]Our love was on the wing
[00:56.49]We had dreams and songs to sing
[01:00.03]It's so lonely round the Fields Of Athenry
[01:07.89]By a lonely prison wall
[01:11.04]I heard a young man calling:
[01:13.32]\"Nothing matters Mary when you're free
[01:25.05]Against the famine and the crown
[01:28.65]I rebelled they cut me down
[01:31.50]Now you must raise our child with dignity\"
[01:55.74]Refrain
[01:55.92]By a lonely harbor wall
[02:48.18]She watched the last star falling
[02:55.29]As that prison ship sailed out against the sky
[02:59.10]Sure she'll wait and hope and pray
[03:05.58]For her love in Botany Bay
[03:09.33]It's lonely'round the Fields Of Athenry

By a lonely prison wall
I heard a young girl calling:
\"Michael they've taken you away
For you stole Trevelyn's corn
So the young might see the morn
Now the prison ship lies waiting in the bay\"
Refrain:
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 cut me down
Now you must raise our child with dignity\"
Refrain
By a lonely harbor wall
She watched the last star falling
As that prison ship sailed out against the sky
Sure she'll wait and hope and pray
For her love in Botany Bay
It's lonely'round the Fields Of Athenry
