lyrics

One for sorrow, two for mirth
Three for marriage, four for birth
Five for silver, six for gold
Seven secrets never told

In fertile fields in ages yore
Magpie, magpie we adore
Feast on pest and feast on rat
Clear the dead out from our land

And then they stabbed you in the back
Caught your kind in snare and trap
Killed your children in their nests
For the fear of stolen eggs

One for sorrow, two for joy
Three for murder, four for blood,
Five for mourning, six in wake,
Seven, vengeance we shall take

Mobs of mourners in the sky,
Clouds of livid black and white
Stain games-keeper's house with red
Children's eyes plucked from their heads

Eight for heaven, nine for hell
Ten for the wrath of the devil himself
Eleven for a debt well paid
Twelve mock traitors in their grave
