Scarborough Fair

Are you going to Scarborough Fair?

Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme

Remember me to one who lives there

For once he was a true love of mine

Tell him to make me a cambric shirt

Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme

Without a seam nor needlework

And he shall be a true love of mine

Tell him to wash it in yonder dry well

Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme

Where water ne'er sprang nor drop of rain fell

And he shall be a true love of mine

Tell him to hang it on yonder thorn

Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme

Which never bore blossom since Adam was born

And he shall be a true love of mine

O can you find me an acre of land

Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme

Between the sea foam and the sea sand?

Then he shall be a true love of mine
