By lonely prison wall,
I heard a young girl calling
Michael they have taken you away
For you stole Travelyn's corn,
So the young might see the morn
Now prison ship lies waiting in the bay.

Low lie the fields of Athenry
Where once we watched the small free bird fly
Our love was on the wing,
We had dreams and songs to sing
It's so lonely round the fields of Athenry.

By 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 caught me down
Now you must raise our child with dignity.

Low lie the fields of Athenry
Where once we watched the small free bird 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 harbour wall,
She watched the last star falling
As the prison ship sailed out against the sky
For she'll live in hope and pray,
For her love in Botany Bay
It's so lonely round the fields of Athenry.

Low lie the fields of Athenry
Where once we watched the small free bird fly
Our love was on the wing,
We had dreams and songs to sing
It's so lonely round the fields of Athenry.
