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
