1
Are you going to Scarborough Fair:
2
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme.
3
Remember me to one who lives there.
4
She once was a true love of mine.
5
Tell her to make me a cambric shirt:
6
(On the side of a hill in the deep forest green)
7
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme;
8
(Tracing a sparrow on snow-crested ground)
9
Without no seams nor needlework,
10
(Blankets and bedclothes the child of the mountain)
11
Then she'll be a true love of mine.
12
(Sleeps unaware of the clarion call)
13
Tell her to find me an acre of land:
14
(On the side of a hill, a sprinkling of leaves)
15
Parsely, sage, rosemary and thyme;
16
(Washes the grave with so many tears)
17
Between the salt water and the sea strand,
18
(A soldier cleans and polishes a gun)
19
Then she'll be a true love of mine.
20
Tell her to reap it with a sickle of leather:
21
(War bellows, blazing in scarlet battalions)
22
Parsely, sage, rosemary and thyme
23
(Generals order their soldiers to kill)
24
And gather it all in a bunch of heather,
25
(And to fight for a cause they've long ago forgotten)
26
Then she'll be a true love of mine.
27
Are you going to Scarborough Fair:
28
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme.
29
Remember me to one who lives there.
30
She once was a true love of mine.
