暮色之中

　　Danny, dying of Aids, returns home for his last months. Always close to his mother, they share moments of openness that tend to shut out Danny's father and his sister.
　　Lyrics of Danny boy
　　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 flowers are falling
　　'Tis you, 'tis 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
　　'Tis I'll be there
　　in sunshine or in shadow
　　Oh Danny boy, oh Danny boy,
　　I love you so
　　And when you come,
　　and all the flowers are dying
　　If I am dead,
　　as dead I may well be
　　Ye'll come and find
　　a place where I am lying
　　And kneel and say
　　an "Ave" there for me
　　And I shall hear,
　　though soft your tread above me
　　And all my grave
　　shall warmer sweeter be
　　For you will bend
　　and tell me that you love me
　　And I shall rest
　　in peace until you come to me
　　But if I live
　　and should you die for Ireland
　　Let not your dying thoughts
　　be just of me
　　But say a prayer to God
　　for our dearest Island
　　I know He'll hear
　　and help to set her free
　　And I will take your pike
　　and place my dearest
　　And strike a blow,
　　though weak the blow may be
　　Twill help the cause
　　to which your heart was nearest
　　Oh Danny Boy, Oh, Danny boy
　　I love you so.
