From glen to glen and down the mountain side
 The summer's gone and all the leaves are 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 valley's hushed and white with snow
 I'll be here in sunshine and in shadow
 Oh Danny Boy, oh Danny Boy, I love you so

 But when you've come if all the flow'rs are dying
 And if I am dead, and dead I well may be
 You'll come and find the place where I am lying
 And kneel and say an "Ave" over for me
 And I shall hear tho' soft you tread 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 peace 'til you come to me
 Oh Danny Boy, oh Danny Boy, I love you so
