L \chord{D}ow \chord{G} lie the Fi \chord{D}elds of Athenry \\

where once \chord{D} we watched the small free birds fl \chord{A}y. \\

Our lo \chord{D}ve was on the wing \chord{G}, we had dreams \chord{D} and \\

songs to sin \chord{A}g, \\

it's so lonely 'round the Fields of Athenr \chord{D}y.

|
|
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.

\begin{verse}
|
|
By a lonely harbour 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 so lonely 'round the Fields of Athenry.

\begin{verse}
|
|
The Fields of Athenry ist ein Lied über die Irische \\
|
|
Hungersnot zwischen 1846 und 1849, von der auch \\
|
|
die Bewohner der Stadt Athenry betroffen waren. \\
|
|
Pete St. John, der in vielen Quellen als Textschöpfer \\
|
|
genannt wird, änderte lediglich wenige Worte einer \\
|
|
irischen Ballade aus den 1880er Jahren und fügte die \\
|
|
Melodie in den 1970er Jahren hinzu. \\
|
|
Das Lied erzählt von einem Mann, \\
|
|
der, um seine Familie vor \\
|
|
dem Hungerstod zu retten, \\
|
|
Getreide stiehlt und \\
|
|
dafür nach Australien \\
|
|
(Botany Bay) deportiert wird.
