Are you going to
Scarborough
Fair?
Parsley,
sage, rose
mary
and
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)
Parsley, sage, rose
mary
and
thyme
(Tracing of sparrow on snow-crested ground)
Without no
seams nor nee
dle
work
(Blankets and bedclothes the child of the mountain)
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)
Parsley,
sage, rose
mary
and
thyme
(Washes the grave with silvery tears)
Between the salt
water and
the
sea
strands
(A soldier cleans and polishes a gun)
Then she'll
be a true love of
mine
Tell her to reap it with a
sickle of
leather
(War bellows blazing in scarlet battalions)
Parsley,
sage, rose
mary
and
thyme
(Generals order their soldiers to kill)
And 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
Are you going to
Scarborough
Fair?
Parsley,
sage, rose
mary
and
thyme
Remember
me to one
who
lives
there
She once
was a true love of
mine
