Align:    
  • 'What did I have',
  • said the fine old woman.
  • 'What did I have',
  • this proud old woman did say.
  • 'I had four green fields,
  • each one was a jewel.
  • But strangers came
  • and tried to take them from me.
  • But my fine strong sons
  • They fought to save my jewels.
  • They fought and they died
  • And that was my grief', said she.
  • 'Long time ago',
  • said the fine old woman,
  • 'Long time ago',
  • this proud old woman did say.
  • 'There was war and death,
  • plundering and pillage.
  • My children starved
  • by mountain, valley and stream.
  • And their wailing cries
  • They reached the very heavens.
  • And my four green fields
  • ran red with their blood', said she.
  • 'What have I now',
  • said the fine old woman.
  • 'What have I now',
  • this proud old woman did say.
  • 'I have four green fields,
  • one of them's in bondage.
  • In strangers' hands,
  • that try to take it from me.
  • But my sons have sons
  • As brave as were their fathers.
  • And my four green fields
  • will bloom once again', said she.
  • And my four green fields
  • will bloom once again', said she.
