Don't walk through the valley
where shadow of death linger.
Feel the cold chill as you pass by,
some,pointed fingers.

Heard the cries throughout the world
no-one could stop the reeling hurt,
so please.

Don't walk through the valley
where the shadow of death lingers.

Children in school,happy and laughing
giggles all round.
So please.

Don't walk through the valley
where the shadow of death lingers.

Slag heaps moved,children in school,
unaware of the tragedy to come.
So please.

Don't walk through the valley
where the shadow of death lingers.

Took just 5 minutes for the coal tip
to flow.
Engulfing a farm,houses,school just below.
So please.

Don't walk through the valley
where the shadow of death lingers

116 children,28 adults died In Aberfan
all those years ago.
A generation,no more.
So please.

Don't walk through the valley,
where shadow of death lingered.

Only to pay your respects,nothing more.
