Danny Boy
Lyrics
Oh Danny boy, the pipes, the pipes, are calling
From glen to glen and down the mountain side
The summer's gone and all the leaves are 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've come if all the flow'rs are dying
And if I am dead and dead I well may be
You've come and find the place where I am lying
And kneel and say an "Ave" over for me
And I shall hear tho' soft you tread above me
And all my grave will warm and sweeter be
And you will call and tell me that you love me
And I shall sleep in peace 'til you come to me
Oh Danny boy, oh Danny boy, I love you so
