O Danny Boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling
From glen to glen and down the mountainside
The summer's gone and all the roses 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 all the valley's hushed and white with snow
It's I'll be here in sunshine or in shadow
O Danny Boy, O Danny Boy, I love you so

When winter's come and all the flowers are dying
If 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, though soft you tread above me
And all my grave shall warmer, sweeter be
And you will bend and tell me that you love me
And I shall sleep in peace until you come to me

And I shall sleep in peace until you come to me
And I shall sleep in peace until you come to me
