Verse 1
The Magpie is a most illustrious bird.
Dwells in a diamond tree.
One brings sorrow and one brings joy,
Sorrow and joy for me.
Verse 2
The Magpie is a most royal bird.
Black and blue as night.
I would that I had feathers three,
Black and blue and white.
Verse 3
I saw the gentle Magpie bird,
In the dusky yester-eve.
One brings sorrow and one brings joy,
Sorrow and joy for me,
Sorrow and joy for me.
