Lyrics Danny Boy - Chloe Agnew

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 flow’rs falling;
'Tis you, 'tis 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
And I’ll be here in sunshine or in shadow;
Oh, Danny Boy, oh, Danny Boy, I love you so!
But if you come, and all the flow’rs are dying
And I am dead, as dead I may well be
You’ll come and find the place where I am lying
And kneel and say an Ave there for me
And I will*hear, though soft you tread above me;
And all my grave will warmer, sweeter be
And you will bend and tell me that you love me
And I will sleep in peace until you come to me
