Lyrics:
By a lonely prison wall
I heard a young girl calling
"Michael, they have taken you away
For you stole Trevelyan'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 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"
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 harbour wall
She watched the last star falling
As that prison ship sailed out against the sky
For she lived 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 birds fly
Our love was on the wing we had dreams and songs to sing
It's so lonely 'round the fields of Athenry

The rugby match of tomorrow at Dublin between Ireland and England appears to be a revenge for Irish people. I am sure that this song will resonate among Irish fans in grandstands of the rugby stadium as usual in the matches where Irish community is present ! Have a nice and pleasant St Patrick's Day !

Beautiful! I'm so happy I found this from Steiner's playlist. Been watching a lot of cello lately and it makes me want to drop the violin for it!

I had understood that you were preparing a collaboration and I was expecting the big day, and yet, I chose exactly the right moment to abandon my computer to watch a series. Your collaboration is a thousand times better than the series. It was wonderful again, very moving. Happy St Patrick's Day everyone! :)

If Roxane’s cello and Gustavo’s lyrics for this powerful ballad about love during the famine do not cause your eyes to mist up, forget the wearing of green for St. Paddy’s day! You cannot claim a drop of Irish blood. 💗
