By a lonely prison wall
I heard a young girl calling
Michael they have taken you away
For you stole trevelyn's corn
So 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 lonley 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 dignaty

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 lonley harbour wall
She watched the last star falling
As the prison ship sailed out against the sky
For she lived in hope and pray
For her love in botney 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
