Fields Of Athenry by Unknown
By a lonely prison wall, I heard a young girl call-ing
Michael they are taking you a-way____
For you stole Trevelyn's corn, so the young might see the

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 Athen-ry____
