unknown - scarborough fair lyrics
(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.
