Scarborough Fair Lyrics

Note: The lines in italics are in the CD-booklet but are not sung. 

  

 Are you going to Scarborough Fair?

 Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme

 Remember me to one who lives there

 He once was a true love of mine

 

 Tell him to make me a cambric shirt

 Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme

 Without no seams nor needle work

 Then he'll be a true love of mine

 

 

 Have him wash it in yonder dry well

 Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme

 Where ne'er a drop of water e'er fell

 And then he'll be a true love of mine

 

 

 Tell him to find me an acre of land

 Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme

 Between salt water and the sea strands

 Then he'll be a true love of mine

 

 

 Tell him to reap it with a sickle of leather

 Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme

 And gather it all in a bunch of heather

 Then he'll be a true love of mine

 

 

 Are you going to Scarborough Fair?

 Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme

 Remember me to one who lives there

 He once was a true love of mine
