Four-leave Clover

C. Coombs

I know a place where the sun is like gold,

And the cherry-blooms burst with snow,

And down underneath is the loveliest nook

Where the four-leaf clover grows.

One leaf is for hope, and you must have faith,

And one is for love, you know;

And God put another one in for luck —

If you search, you will find where they grow.

But you must have hope, and you must have faith,

You must love and be strong — and so,

If you work, if you wait, you will find the place

Where the four-leaf clover grows.
