Immerse yourself in the heartfelt rendition of the timeless classic, "Danny Boy," played on an exquisite Lowden F25 acoustic guitar. As the notes resonate with soulful emotion, let the sound of the F25 enchant you, creating an unforgettable musical experience.
Accompanying this tender melody, I present a visual journey captured at Tugela Falls in the snow-covered Drakensberg over the weekend. Let the breathtaking scenery enhance the song's poignancy, taking you on a captivating journey of both sound and sight.

"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.
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 there 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,
Ye'll come and find the place where I am lying,
And kneel and say an Avé 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!"
