Oh, Danny Boy
by Frederick Edward Weatherly
~ Oh Danny Boy, the pipes the pipes are calling ~
From glen to glen, and down the mountain side
The summers gone and all the roses falling
Its you, its you, must go and I must bide
But come ye back when summers in the meadow
Or when the valleys hushed and white with snow
Its Ill be here in sunshine or in shadow
Oh Danny Boy, oh Danny Boy,
I love you so
But when ye come, and all the flowrs are dying
If I am dead, as dead I well may be
Yell 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 all my grave, will warmer sweeter be
For you will bend and tell me that you love me
And I shall sleep in peace until you
come to me!
