Danny Boy is one of the most iconic and well known “Irish” songs; however, while this song is mostly commonly associated with Ireland, the text was actually written in 1910 by the English Frederic Weatherly, a lawyer and prolific lyricist. After being set in 1913 to the tune of the Londonderry Air, a melody originating in Northern Ireland, the song became enormously popular, and has since become somewhat of an unofficial anthem of the Irish diaspora, particularly in America.Text:Oh Danny boy, the pipes, the pipes are callingFrom glen to glen, and down the mountain sideThe 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 meadowOr when the valley’s hushed and white with snow‘Tis I’ll be here in sunshine or in shadowOh Danny boy, oh Danny boy, I love you so.And if you come, when all the flowers are dyingAnd I am dead, as dead I well may beYou’ll come and find the place where I am lyingAnd kneel and say an “Ave” there for me.And I shall hear, tho’ soft you tread above meAnd all my dreams will warm and sweeter beIf you’ll not fail to tell me that you love meI’ll simply sleep in peace until you come to me.
