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 flowers are dying
Tis you tis 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
Tis I"ll be here. In sunshine or in shadow
Oh Danny boy, oh Danny boy, I love you so
And if you come when all the flowers are dying
And I am dead as dead I well may be
I pray you'll 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 all my grave shall warmer sweeter be
Then you will kneel and whisper that you love me
And I shall sleep in peace until you come to me
