[Intro]
*Bird sounds*
[Verse 1]
The magpie is a most illustrious bird
Dwells in a diamond tree
One brings sorrow and one brings joy
Sorry 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 birds
In dusky yester-eve
One brought sorrow and one brought joy
And sooner than soon did leave
[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
*Bird sounds*
[Verse 1]
The magpie is a most illustrious bird
Dwells in a diamond tree
One brings sorrow and one brings joy
Sorry 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 birds
In dusky yester-eve
One brought sorrow and one brought joy
And sooner than soon did leave
[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
