Danny Boy
Frederick Edward Weatherly
Danny Boy the pipes the pipes are calling
From glen to glen and down the mountain side
The summer's gone and all the leaves 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 valleys hushed and white with snow
I'll be here in sunshine or in shadows oh Danny Boy oh Danny Boy I love you so
[ strings ]
But when you come if all the leaves are falling and if I'm dead and dead I well may be
You'll come and find the place where I am lying then kneel and say and awail over me
And I shall hear the soft you trade above me and all my grave will warmer sweeter be
And you will call and tell me that you love me and I shall sleep in piece till you come to me
Oh Danny Boy oh Danny Boy I love you so
