"Scarborough Fair" tells a lingering and poignant love story: a young man enlisted in the army away from his beloved girl was killed in the war, but the village full of coriander, sage, rosemary and thyme, is still frankly sincere, exudes the fenfen of love, and sparkles with the call of life.
From then on, who wants to tease love by treating gunfire as a game? In the eyes of the boy's beloved, although the war has made the butterflies and warblers of yesteryear long gone, not even a few distant cranes and geese cries in loneliness, but his immortal soul persistently asked every merchant:
Do you go to Scarborough Fair? Give my regards to a girl who is my favorite!

Lyrics
Are you going to Scarborough Fair:Are you going to Scarborough 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:Tell her to make me a linen shirt
(On the side of a hill in the deep forest green.)
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme. sage, rosemary and thyme;Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
(Tracing of sparrow on the snow-crested brown.)
Without no seams nor needle work,Without no seams nor needlework on it
(Blankets and bedclothes the child of the mountain.)
Then she'll be a true love of mine. p>
(Sleeps unaware of the clarion call.)
Tell her to find me an acre of land:Tell her to find a piece of land for me
(On the side of a hill a sprinkling of leaves.)(On the side of a hill a sprinkling of leaves.
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme.)
(Washes the grave with silvery tears.)
(Drops the grave with silvery tears.)
Between the salt water and the water, the grave washed away. p>Between the salt water and the sea strands, just between the salt water and the sea
(A soldier cleans and polishes a gun.)
Then she'll be a true love of mine .then she'll be a true love of mine
Tell her to reap it with a sickle of leather:Tell her to reap it with a sickle of leather
(War bellows blazing in scarlet battalions.)
(War bellows blazing in scarlet battalions.)
And gather it all in a bunch of heather,
And gather it all in a bunch of heather,
And gather it all in a bunch of heather,
And gather it all in a bunch of heather,
And gather it all in a bunch of heather,
And gather it all in a bunch of heather. of heather, and gather it all in a bunch
(And to fight for a cause they've long ago forgotten.)
Then she'll be a true love of mine. love of mine.
Are you going to 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.
