One crow sorrow

One crow sorrow,
Two crows joy,
Three crows a letter,
Four crows a boy.

Magpie, magpie

Magpie, magpie, chatter and flee,
Turn up thy tail, and good luck to me.
One for sorrow, two for joy,
Three for a girl, four for a boy,
Five for silver, six for gold,
Seven for a secret, never to be told,
Eight for a wish, nine for a kiss,
Ten for a time of joyous bliss.
