  • denizcilik folklorunda fiddler's green bir nevi gemiciler cennetidir, gemi arkadaşlarının öldüklerinde buluştuğu yerdir. davy jones locker kavramının zıddı sayılabilir. aynı isimde dünyaca ünlü bir irlanda shanty'si de mevcuttur. sözleri de şöyledir:

    as i walked by the dockside one evening so fair
    to view the saltwater and take the salt air
    i heard an old fisherman singing a song
    take me away, boys, me time is not long

    chorus:
    wrap me up in me oilskins and blanket
    no more on the docks i'll be seen
    just tell me old shipmates, i'm taking a trip mates
    i'll see you someday on fiddler's green

    now fiddler's green is a place i've heard tell
    where fishermen go, when they don't go to hell
    where the skies are all clear and dolphins do play
    and the cold coast of greenland is far, far away

    chorus

    where the skies are all clear and there's never a gale
    and the fish jump on board with one swish of their tails
    where you lie at your leisure, there's no work to do
    and the skipper's below making tea for the crew

    chorus

    when you get back at home and the long trip is through
    there's pubs and there's clubs and there's lassies there too
    the girls are all pretty and the beer is all free
    and there's bottles of rum growin' on every tree

    chorus

    now i don't want a harp or a halo, not me
    just give me a breeze and a good rolling sea
    i'll play me old squeeze box, as we sail along
    with the wind in riggin' to sing me this song
