colm r. mcguinness - scarborough fair lyrics

[verse 1]
are you going to scarborough fair?
parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme
remember me to one who lives there
she once was a true love of mine

[verse 2]
tell her to make me a cambric shirt
(on the side of a hill, in the deep forest green)
parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme
(tracing of sparrow on snow+crested ground)
without no seams nor needle work
(blankets and bedclothes the child of the mountain)
then she’ll be a true love of mine
(sleeps unaware of the clarion call)

[verse 3]
tell her to find me an acre of land
(on the side of a hill, a sprinkling of leaves)
parsley, sage, rosemary 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

[verse 4]
tell her to reap it with a sickle of leather
(war bellows blazing in scarlet battalions)
parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme
(generals order their soldiers to k!ll)
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
[verse 5]
are you going to scarborough fair?
parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme
remember me to one who lives there
she once was a true love of mine
