Danny Boy

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 roses falling

It's you it's 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

I'll be here is 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 I am dead as dead I well may be

You'll come and find the place where I am lying

And you'll then say an ave there for me

And I will know though soft ye tread above me

And in my grave will richer sweeter be

And you'll bend down and tell me that you love me

And I will rest in peace until you come to me
