Five little shamrocks
One green shamrock, in the morning dew,
Another one
sprouted;
And then there were two.
Two
green shamrocks, growing 'neath the tree,
Another one
sprouted;
And then there were three.
Three green
shamrocks, by the cottage door,
Another one sprouted;
And then there were four.
Four green shamrocks, near a
beehive,
Another one sprouted;
And then
there were five.
Five little shamrocks, bright and emerald
Five little shamrocks, bright and emerald green,
Think of
all the luck these shamrocks will bring.
