Four‑leave Clover Matches base text
Language: English
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.
