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 |
|
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 the snow crested brown) |
|
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) |
|
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 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 bells blazing in scarlet battalion) |
|
Parsley,sage,rosemary 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 |
|
