Simon & Garfunkel – Scarborough Fair

Lyrics

Scarborough Fair

Are you going to Scarborough Fair?
Parsley, sage, rosemary & thyme
Remember me to one who lives there
She once was a true love of mine

Tell her to make me a cambric shirt
(On the side of a hill in the deep forest green)
Parsely, sage, rosemary & thyme
(Tracing a sparrow on snow-crested ground)
Without no seams nor needlework
(Blankets and bedclothes a child of the mountains)
Then she’ll be a true love of mine
(Sleeps unaware of the clarion call)

Tell her to find me an acre of land
(On the side of a hill, a sprinkling of leaves)
Parsely, sage, rosemary, & thyme
(Washed is the ground with so many tears)
Between the salt water and the sea strand
(A soldier cleans and polishes a gun)
Then she’ll be a true love of mine

Tell her to reap it in a sickle of leather
(War bellows, blazing in scarlet battalions)
Parsely, sage, rosemary & thyme
(Generals order their soldiers to kill)
And to gather it all in a bunch of heather
(And to fight for a cause they’ve long ago forgotten)
Then she’ll be a true love of mine

Are you going to Scarborough Fair?
Parsley, sage, rosemary & thyme
Remember me to one who lives there
She once was a true love of mine.

Prevod na srpski

Vašar u Skarborou

Ideš li na vašar u Skarborou?
Peršun, žalfija, ruzmarin i majčina dušica
Pozdravi mi onu što tamo živi
Nekad je bila moja ljubav prava

Reci joj da mi napravi finu košulju
(Na padini brda u dubini šumskog zelenila)
Peršun, žalfija, ruzmarin i majčina dušica
(Tragom vrapca na snežnom terenu)
Bez šavova i bez šivenja
(Ćebad i posteljina, dete planina)
Onda će biti moja ljubav prava
(Spava nesvesno poziva trube)

Reci joj da mi nađe hektar zemlje
(Na padini brda, nešto malo lišća)
Peršun, žalfija, ruzmarin i majčina dušica
(Isprana je ta zemlja sa mnogo suza)
Između slane vode i morske obale
(Jedan vojnik pušku čisti i polira)
Onda će biti moja ljubav prava

Reci joj da ga požnje srpom od kože
(Mehovi rata besne u grimiznim bataljonima)
Peršun, žalfija, ruzmarin i majčina dušica
(Generali naređuju svojim vojnicima da ubijaju)
I da sve skupi u buket vresa
(I da se bore za neki cilj davno zaboravljen)
Onda će biti moja ljubav prava

Ideš li na vašar u Skarborou?
Peršun, žalfija, ruzmarin i majčina dušica
Pozdravi mi onu što tamo živi
Nekad je bila moja ljubav prava
