I LOVE THIS SONG AND THE WORDS

  Click Here to Listen to this Irish Song

 

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 flowers are dying
'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
'Tis I'll be here in sunshine or in shadow
Oh Danny boy, oh Danny boy, I love you so.

And if you come, when all the flowers are dying
And 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, tho' soft you tread above me
And all my dreams will warm and sweeter be
If you'll not fail to tell me that you love me
I'll simply sleep in peace until you come to me.

I'll simply sleep in peace until you come to me. 
HAPPY ST. PATRICK'S DAY.

  6. Thanks for sharing the tune and the verses!  It is a sentimental song!  I saw a really neat movie late last night called Yesterday's CHildren with Jane Seymour..what a neat movie and actress.  It was about two women and their families tied together by a soul who could not rest until her children where reunited...in Ireland. it was really touching.  Have a nice weekend!  Maria
