Danny Boy Songtext
von The Celtic Tenors

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
Tis you, tis you must go and I must bide


But come you by 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
O Danny boy
O Danny boy, I love you so

But when you 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
For you will bend and tell me that you love me
And I shall sleep in peace until you come to me
