Danny Boy Songtext

von Chloe Agnew

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
