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 you 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 if you come and

All the flowers are dying

If I am dead as dead I well may be

You'll come and find

The place where I am lying

And kneel and say an ave there for me

And I will know

Though soft you tread above me

And then my grave will warmer

Sweeter be

And you'll bend down

And tell me that you love me

And I shall sleep in peace

Until you come to me
