The Evil Eye

The spell can be broken

By a lass who is bespoken.

She carries herself upright,

There is nothing she hasn't broken.

 

See for yourself her magic

But don't let her put a curse on thee.

She can thread a needle

With its tiny opening, easily.

 

Let you not trouble her,

As on you a spell will lie.

She takes the greatest pleasure

In giving someone, the evil eye.
