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 ye back when summer's in the meadow |
|
or when the valley's hushed and white with snow |
|
'tis i'll be here 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'll simply sleep/ in peace until/ you come to me. |
|
|
i'll simply sleep/ in peace until/ you come to me. |
