Danny Boy

Oh Danny Boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling From glen to glen, and down the mountainside The summer's gone, and all the leaves are 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. And when ye come, and all the flowers are dying And I am dead, as dead I well may 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 bend and tell me that you love me. Then I shall sleep in peace until you come to me.
