If you found my Diamond ring,
You’d feel lucky enough to sing.
If you found my Diamond ring,
Three wishes would I grant to thee.
If you found my Diamond ring,
Grow old you’d do.
For each wish you’d make
ten years would I take,
and my brother, Death, would awaken
and in the night you’d be taken,
never be mistaken,
For greed, indeed is a sin
As is wasting life.
One life gone in the blinking of mine eye.
If you were unlucky enough to find my Diamond ring
you’d run dear, run.
