      Danny Boy was the Recessional Hymn for my Grandpa Ryan's funeral in May, 1986.

    My dad used to whistle and sing this when I was growing up. I sat with him and held him the night he passed. I would so very much like to hear him sing it one more time. The time we have is precious use it wisely

      My father also used to sing this when I was young. He'll turn 80 this year. I can't imagine a world without him. The thought is paralyzing at times.

      Yes, so many of us learned it from our fathers - As it should be! I remember my dad sang this to me when i was a young boy. I lost my oldest brother, his first born, when I was 12 years old, and I don't recall hearing my dad sing it since then... I am performing it solo this St. Patty's Day, and I'll ask someone to record it so I can send it to him - he is now 94. I hope I don't fuck it up...

    My brother is a traditional Irish Folk musician. One of the things he always said about this song is that as far as any one knows,it is the only Irish tune where a father expresses his love for his son.

    My father’s best friend was a fine Irish tenor. The two of were cut of the one cloth and it was a singular family treat to be invited as a family to go visit his. The distance was far enough that travelling with a carload of little children, meant that it was at least an overnight visit, or more for a long weekend.
    Amongst my finest and most treasured childhood memories , is to hear him in my mind’s ear singing Danny Boy with all the energy of his very soul, as he went about his day, with his beloved setter at his side.
    It’s been a long time since last it was my pleasure to enjoy the household with his music and to hear his parents and in-laws speak Irish together.
    I hope they’re still enjoying their fine music the other side.❤

    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 roses falling,
    It's you, it's you must go and I must bide.
    And take ye with my memory ever smiling
    Untrodden path, I'll tarry by your side
    And though you leave behind a silver lining
    It's you, it's 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,
    It's I'll be here in sunshine or in shadow,
    Oh, Danny boy, oh Danny boy, I love you so!
    But when ye 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 will 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.

      It is really a heart wrenching story of a father's love for his son. That translates to all cultures. But the thought that a dead father in a grave would be comforted knowing his son has returned and stands on the ground above him... I don't know - that just hits me so hard - I can't help but cry.

      I don't know if you'll want to know this or not, but the "meaning behind the song" in this video is not true. Frederick Weatherly had a son who died in 1910, years before the war, and his name wasn't Daniel. He starting writing the song months before his son suddenly died.

    Just stunning. My dad and I would sit on the deck in the summer overlooking the water and drink scotch and belt out this song when we were reminiscing about friends and family gone too soon. When he passed and his ashes were spread I sang it alone. I always tear up when I hear it but this rendition made me cry. Tears of grief, happiness at a memory, release from so much stress that the world is in right now from the pandemic, that America is in from D.C., from the hate that holds the country, tears of joy from the pure beauty of their voices.
    Thank you for this. Tears are needed sometimes, they cleanse the soul. Put everything into perspective. Start a new day with a clean slate.

    You guys can do no wrong. You’ve given this lovely song the tingle factor with your trademark harmonies. Exquisite.

      Everyone can do wrong. Don't you know we all sin. But that is why the Lord Jesus Christ died for our sins.

      No it's not! The tune aka music is a traditional piece of music called Londonderry Air, the lyrics were written by Frederic Weatherly in 1913 in Bath, Somerset for his son. People do actually do this of thing, you know to take an old melody and turn it into something new, Simple Minds from Glasgow in 1989 took the melody of Irish folk song "She Moved Through the Fair" and added their lyrics which became Belfast Child, and that became a massive hit!

    Here because Russell Crowe recently talked about this song being sang while he walked his mom through the Vatican. It was a song his late father loved. Apparently the choir never practiced this but that day had decided to. I needed to hear it for myself. Very touching song. ❤

    I buried my father 12 years ago, this song was one of this favorites.
    He had been a sailor from age 17 back in 1956 all the way up to when he reached the age of 50.
    He was a very reserved man but the only time i caught him singing was when Danny Boy was playing on the radio.
    Seeing tears in his eyes i knew it held a very special place in his heart, now i also tear up whenever i hear this very special song.
    We will see each other again ❤
