DANNY  BOY

                     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 leaves are falling;
                        'Tis ye, 'tis ye 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;
                        'Til I'll be here in sunshine or in shadow;
                         Danny boy, Oh Danny boy, I love you so.

                    And when ye come and all the flowers are dying,
                          If I am dead, as dead I well may be.
                     Ye'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 ye tread around me,
                        And all my grave shall linger sweeter be,
                      Then ye will bend and tell me that ye love me,
                     And I shall sleep in peace until ye come to me.
