traditional - scarborough fair lyrics

Loading...

(both)
are you going to scarborough fair?
parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
remember me to one who lives there
for she once was a true love of mine

(man)
tell her to make me a cambric shirt
parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
without any seam nor needlework
and then she’ll be a true love of mine

tell her to wash it in yonder dry well
parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
which never sprung water nor rain ever fell
and then she’ll be a true love of mine

tell her to dry it on yonder th-rn
parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
which never bore blossom since adam was born
and then she’ll be a true love of mine

ask her to do me this courtesy
parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
and ask for a like favour from me
and then she’ll be a true love of mine

(both)
have you been to scarborough fair?
parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
remember me from one who lives there
for he once was a true love of mine

(woman)
ask him to find me an acre of land
parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
between the salt water and the sea-sand
for then he’ll be a true love of mine

ask him to plough it with a lamb’s h-rn
parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
and sow it all over with one peppercorn
for then he’ll be a true love of mine

ask him to reap it with a sickle of leather
parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
and gather it up with a rope made of heather
for then he’ll be a true love of mine

when he has done and finished his work
parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
ask him to come for his cambric shirt
for then he’ll be a true love of mine

(both)
if you say that you can’t, then i shall reply
parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
oh, let me know that at least you will try
or you’ll never be a true love of mine

love imposes impossible tasks
parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
but none more than any heart would ask
i must know you’re a true love of mine
