GREEN FIELDS OF IRELAND

OVER THE MOORELAND AND OVER THE LEAH
ACROSS THE ATLANTIC OH WHAT DO I SEE
THE HIGH HILLS OF ANTRIM AND THE COASTLINE OF CLARE
AND THE GREENFIELDS OF IRELAND THAT WELCOME ME THERE

I STAND BY THE HARBOR WHAT DO I SEE
A GREAT OCEAN LINER IS WAITING FOR ME
THERE'S PEOPLE ON IT FOR LANDS FAR AWAY
ALL WE ASK IS THE FOR TO GO OR TO STAY

CHORUS

OH WE ARE AN ISLAND WAY OUT ON THE SEA
WE ARE THE IRISH AS PROUD AS CAN BE
IN SOFT SUMMER BREEZES OR WILD WINTER WINDS
OUR HEARTS ARE IN THE GREEN FIELDS OF IRELAND

I PRAY THAT THE END OF THE TROUBLES WILL COME
AND WE BURY THE HATCHET ALONG WITH THE GUN
AND SOON ONCE THE ENEMY CAN NOW BE MY FRIEND
AND THE GREEN FIELDS OF IRELAND WILL UNITE ONCE AGAIN

CHORUS

SURE MY HEARTS IN THE GREEN FIELDS OF IRELAND
