Are you goin’ 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 needlework
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.
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.

The song goes straight to my core, too, never ceasing to give me goosebumps. 🙂
I watched the whole concert of Celtic Woman in the weekend. It is awesome. Here is the link: Celtic Woman, New Journey Live at Slane Castle, Ireland (2006)
