I was born in a country where people admire |
| [00:19.50] |
Their great sporting heroes and how they aspire |
| [00:24.08] |
To stand upon mountains and always be winners |
| [00:28.27] |
And never give less than their all |
| [00:32.65] |
I once met an old man who told me great stories |
| [00:36.62] |
Of legends of old who played hard for the glory |
| [00:41.11] |
Of lifting the cup in that moment of triumph |
| [00:45.19] |
These memories kept me enthralled |
| [00:49.52] |
On the fields, the fields of glory |
| [00:57.97] |
On the fields where boys become men |
| [01:06.79] |
On the fields, the fields of glory |
| [01:15.40] |
May the best team win, win in the end |
| [01:24.32] |
Supporting their team with a true sense of place |
| [01:28.25] |
Are the handfuls of people with pride on their faces |
| [01:32.98] |
They come from the townlands, the parish, the village |
| [01:37.16] |
Their banners they proudly unfurl |
| [01:41.68] |
An anthem of hope is the song they are singing |
| [01:45.80] |
The whistle, it sounds and the game, it begins |
| [01:50.18] |
And the roar of the crowd echoes up to the heavens |
| [01:54.47] |
It sends out a clarion call |
| [01:58.85] |
On the fields, the fields of glory |
| [02:07.57] |
On the fields where boys become men |
| [02:16.32] |
On the fields, the fields of glory |
| [02:24.73] |
May the best team win, win in the end |
| [02:33.90] |
I'm dreaming of Ireland in fine summer weather |
| [02:37.98] |
A crowd of young lads playing football together |
| [02:42.37] |
All hoping that someday the call they will answer |
| [02:46.75] |
To play for the place they were born |
| [02:50.88] |
On the fields, the fields of glory |
| [02:59.26] |
On the fields where boys become men |
| [03:07.87] |
On the fields, the fields of glory |
| [03:16.69] |
May the best team win, win in the end |
| [03:25.61] |
I'm dreaming of Ireland in fine summer weather |
| [03:29.99] |
A crowd of young lads playing football together |
| [03:34.22] |
The roar of the crowd echoes up to the heavens |
| [03:38.66] |
It sends out a clarion call |
