One for sorrow, two for joy.

[XxHeatherxX]

One for sorrow, two for joy, three for a girl, four for a boy, five for silver, six for gold, seven for a secret never to be told, eight for a wish, nine for a kiss, ten for a time of joyous bliss.

Can anyone add to that?

Click here for an earlier AnswerBank thread about this, including a suggestion as to 11 and 12. Personally, I don't believe the rhyme went beyond 7 originally.
