Marzipan Magpie – The SWR
A carefree little ditty @stevep , @JulieI and myself put together at the weekend, ‘Marzipan Magpie’.
It’s a ‘Mother and Daughter’ tune, based on the Magpie Nursery Rhyme (you all know the one… “One for Sorrow, Two for Joy… etc.)
Dedicated to our Julie, I hope you all enjoy it’s feelgood factor… (I know, so not me )

Lyrics :
One for the morrow
Two for Joy
Three for a girl
For you to enjoy
Wishes and Kisses
Silver and Gold
All in her Story
Yet to be toldOne is a gift
Too Cherish and Hold
Three for a girl
For all to behold
Bestow and show
Love that won’t die
Keeping her safe
Marzipan mag – pieHealth and wealth
Share all you know
Surprises not to miss
As you let her grow
Time
To let her try
Time
Marzipan mag – pieOne for a child
Too Embrace
Three for a girl
For all your grace
Support and taught
Through joy and cry
Guiding her way
Marzipan mag – pieHealth and wealth
Share all you know
Surprises not to miss
Bath in her glow
Time
To let her fly
Time
Marzipan mag – pieOne is the future
Too make you proud
Free is the woman
For virtue found
Rooted securely
With wings to fly
Forever your heart
Marzipan mag – pie -

Another great song by the SWR @Fletch I am not animist with the nursery rhyme however I do have a daughter and I found the song very touching. Well done!

Here you go Mr.Kit… 😀
(It’s based on how many Magpies you see together… Obviously a Marzipan one is Special though)
One for sorrow,
Two for joy,
Three for a girl,
Four for a boy,
Five for silver,
Six for gold,
Seven for a story,
Yet to be told.
Eight for a wish,
Nine for a kiss,
Ten a surprise you should be careful not to miss,
Eleven for health,
Twelve for wealth,
Thirteen beware, it’s the devil himself.

By seeing the rhyme, I can appreciate what a wonderful job you guys did in “building” a song from it, BRAVO SWR PROJECT👏🎺🎉📯🔔👏!!! It was also a great pleasure to hear all of your voices together in one song👍🥂 Cheers to all of you.
