  • Lyrics:

    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.
    'Tis you, 'tis 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,
    For I'll be here in sunshine or in shadow.
    Oh Danny Boy, oh Danny Boy, I love you so.
    But if you come, and all the flowers are dying
    And if I'm dead, as dead I might well be.
    Ye'll come and find the place where I am lying
    And kneel and say an Ave there for me.
    And I shall hear, though soft you tread above me,
    And o'er my grave shall warmer, sweeter be,
    And if you bow and tell me that you love me,
    Then I shall sleep in peace until you come to me.
