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 dying
'Tis you 'tis you
must go and I must bye
But come he 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
But when he come
and all the roses falling
And I am dead as dead
I well may be
Go out he find
the place where I am lying
And kneel and say
an Ave there for me
And I will hear
the soft you tread above me
And then my grave will warmer
sweeter be
For you shall bend
and tell me that you love me
And I shall sleep in peace
until you come to me
