LYRICS:
Oh, Danny boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling.
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.
And I'll be here in sunshine or in shadow.
Oh, Danny boy, oh, Danny boy, I love you so.

But when you come, when all the flowers are dying,
If I am dead, as dead I well may be,
I pray you'll 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 on my grave will warmer, sweeter be.
For you'll come and tell me that you love me,
And I will sleep in peace until you come to me.

I don't care if in in the 2024 right now... but I still look up to this guy

Dear Peter,
My name is Emily, I'm 21 and live in Cincinnati Ohio. A few months ago I was in a car accident and lost my ability to walk, since I was rear ended I had to drop out of school and quit my job. Now I spend my days lay in bed trying to find a way to pass time, and seeing doctor after doctor in hopes to regain the power and strength in my back and legs. It's not easy being my age and wondering if I'll be able to walk again or not while all of my friends are out having fun and being successful. I stumbled across your videos this morning in my daily attempt to keep my mind occupied and I most say I haven't been this happy in months! I'm a huge fan of a cappella, medleys, disney, LOTR and all of the classics! Your videos have brought me so much joy and I can't thank you enough. You are so talented and I love your positive energy, keep up the great work you're amazing, and thanks again for giving me such a great day!
With much gratitude,
Your new fan!

I have two friends that are brothers. The younger one is named Daniel, and his big brother calls him Danny Boy. It's really sweet.

I always get a tear in my eyes when I hear Danny boy

[theresabarcavage]

My Grandmother would start crying when she heard this song. From being homesick for Ireland. And I know she would love this song even more if she was still alive today. You, sir, have an amazing gift and awesome voice.

I know it's really late but I just wanted to say that this brought me to tears.

This was my dads favorite song, he passed away 2 years ago. We played this song at his funeral. I haven't heard this song since. It just really reminded me of him. Thank you for doing this song.

What seems to be the proper lyrics:

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.
And I'll be here in sunshine or in shadow.
Oh, Danny boy, oh, Danny boy, I love you so.

But when you come, when all the flowers are dying,
If I am dead, as dead I well may be,
I pray you'll 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 on my grave will warmer, sweeter be.
For you'll come and tell me that you love me,
And I will sleep in peace until you come to me.

My sister took her life in Feb of 2021. I never heard this song before. And when I listened to it I never cried so hard in my life. U sing it absolutely beautiful. This was one of her favorite songs. I listened to others sing it but in my heart no one could sing it like u. I listen to it over and over I feel close to my sister when I hear your voice. GOD Bless You

[markwalsh]

Peter, you sound like an Irishman, an Irish tener, the song we sang at my dads funeral.

[liamishated]

I'm from UK and I love Irish songs like "Danny Boy" 😍

[jeankavanagh]

My dad used to sing this to us when we were children. He had a beautiful voice too and a strong Irish accent.

[jenjenroserose]

[pauladimarzo]

I requested this song a while back! My mother had a nephew named Danny whenever she heard this song it touched her. Mom passed away in hospice, and the last song she really heard and was aware of was this one by Celtic women. You did an incredible job, as always!Thank you so much! 🙄

[aylettkish]

Brilliant, just brilliant! Here come the chills and the tears...

[jacquichambers]

I don't know how many versions of Danny Boy I have heard in my lifetime being from Ireland myself but this is by miles and miles the most beautiful and touching I have ever heard and I don't know how to send my appreciation for the gift this is, touched my heart, shed a tear, can't stop listening. Simply beautiful

[tomsmith]
