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 ye back when the summer's in the meadow Or when the valley's hushed with ice and snow 'Tis I'll be here in sunshine or in shadow Oh Danny Boy, oh Danny Boy, I love you so
But when you come and all the flowers are dying And 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 shall hear though soft you tread above me And all my dreams will warmer, sweeter be If you will bend and tell me that you love me And I shall sleep in peace until you come to me
