Oh, Dan ny boy,
the pipes, the pipes are call ing,
From glen to glen
And down the moun side.
The sum mer's gone

’Tis you, ’tis you

But come ye back
when sum mer’s in the mea dow
Or when the val
ley’s hushed and white with snow
’Tis I’ll be there
in sun light or in shad ow,
Oh, Dan ny boy, oh, Dan ny boy I love you so.
