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 there 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
|
You'll come and find the place where I am lying
|
And kneel and say an "Ave" there for me.
|
And I shall hear, tho' soft you tread above me
|
And all my dreams will warm and sweeter be
|
If you'll not fail to tell me that you love me
|
I simply sleep in peace until you come to me.
|
