Danny Boy

Oh, Danny boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling

From glen to glen and down the mountainside

The summer's gone and all the roses falling

It's you, it's you must go and I must bide

But come ye back when summer's in the meadow

Or when the valley's hushed and white with snow

I'll be here in sunshine or in shadow

Oh, Danny boy, oh, Danny boy, I love you so

But when you come, if all the leaves are falling

And if I'm dead, and dead I well may be

You'll come and find the place where I am lying

And kneel and say an Ave over me

And I shall hear, though soft you tread above me

And all my grave will warmer, sweeter be

And you will call and tell me that you love me

And I shall sleep in peace till you come to me

Oh, Danny boy, oh, Danny boy, I love you so
