Are you going to Scarborough Fair?
|
Parsley, sage, rosemary & thyme
|
Remember me to one who lives there
|
She once was a true love of mine
|
|
Tell her to make me a cambric shirt
|
(On the side of a hill in the deep forest green)
|
Parsely, sage, rosemary & thyme
|
(Tracing a sparrow on snow-crested ground)
|
Without no seams nor needlework
|
(Blankets and bedclothes a child of the mountains)
|
Then she'll be a true love of mine
|
(Sleeps unaware of the clarion call)
|
|
Tell her to find me an acre of land
|
(On the side of a hill, a sprinkling of leaves)
|
Parsely, sage, rosemary, & thyme
|
(Washed is the ground with so many tears)
|
Between the salt water and the sea strand
|
(A soldier cleans and polishes a gun)
|
Then she'll be a true love of mine
|
|
Tell her to reap it in a sickle of leather
|
(War bellows, blazing in scarlet battalions)
|
Parsely, sage, rosemary & thyme
|
(Generals order their soldiers to kill)
|
And to gather it all in a bunch of heather
|
(And to fight for a cause they've long ago forgotten)
|
Then she'll be a true love of mine
|
|
