Donovan Leitch - The Magpie Lyrics

The Magpie is a most illustrious bird

dwells in a diamond tree

one brings sorrow and one brings joy

sorry and joy for me



The Magpie is a most royal bird

black and blue as night

I would that I had feathers three

black and blue and white



I saw the gentle Magpie bird

in the dusky yestereve

one brings sorrow and one brings joy

sorrow and joy for me....

sorrow and joy for me....
