Scarborough Fair

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,
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme.
Without a seam or fine needlework,
Then, she'll be a true love of mine.

Tell her to wash it in yonder dry well,
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme.
Where ne'er a drop of water e'er fell
Then, she'll be a true love of mine.

Tell her to dry it on yonder thorn
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme.
Which never bore blossom since Adam was born,
Then, she'll be a true love of mine.

O will you find me an acre of land
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme.
Between the sea foam and the salt sea sand,
Or never be a true love of mine.

O will you plough it with a ram's horn
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme.
And sow it all over with one peppercorn,
And then she'll be a true love of mine.

O will you reap it with a sickle of leather
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme.
And tie it all up with a peacock's feather
And then she'll be a true love of mine.

And when you have done and finished your work
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme.
Then come to me for your cambric shirt
And you shall be a true love of mine.
