La Fête foraine de Scarborough For the anonymous medieval poet and Simon & Garfunkel - in admiration ************ Allez-vous à Scarborough fête foraine ? Persil, sauge, romarin et thym Parlez de moi à une fille d'antan Elle fut jadis mon amie intime Dites-lui de me coudre un Cambric chemise Persil, sauge, romarin et thym Sans bordure ni de la finesse Et sûr elle restera mon amie intime Dites : faites-le dans une ruelle de sycomore Persil, sauge, romarin et thym Et le recueillir dans un panier des fleurs Ainsi elle restera mon amie intime Dites : lavez-le dans ce puit sec Persil, sauge, romarin et thym Où l'eau ne monte pas ni pluie tombe raide Ainsi elle restera mon amie intime Dites : trouvez-lui un acre de terre Persil, sauge, romarin et thym Entre les flots et sur le rivage sableux Ainsi soit-elle mon amie intime Scarborough Fair Are you going to Scarborough Fair? Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme Remember me to one who lives there For once she was a true love of mine Have her make me a cambric shirt Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme Without no seam nor fine needle work And then she'll be a true love of mine Tell her to weave it in a sycamore wood lane Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme And gather it all with a basket of flowers And then she'll be a true love of mine Have her wash it in yonder dry well Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme where water ne'er sprung nor drop of rain fell And then she'll be a true love of mine Have her find me an acre of land Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme Between the sea foam and over the sand And then she'll be a true love of mine © Translation : T. Wignesan - Paris, April 12, 2019
