Traditional (Irish)
Written in B♭ major, range G3 to D5
A farewell song: the pipes are calling Danny away, and the singer must stay behind. If they have died by the time he comes home, they ask only that he find their grave and kneel there. The tune is the Londonderry Air, first printed in 1855; Fred Weatherly’s words to it came out in 1913, and the piano part is his.
