斯卡布罗集市原唱原版

文章插图
斯卡布罗集市的原唱是莎拉·布莱曼。
斯卡布罗集市原是一首古老的英国民歌，其起源可一直追溯到中世纪。它曾被英国民歌之父麦考选进他编辑的一本介绍英国民歌的书中。后来英国民歌手马汀·卡西（Martin Carthy）在原歌的基础上加进了自己的再创造，将它变成了一首爱情歌曲。
《斯卡布罗集市》的歌词：
Are you going to Scarborough Fair.
Parsley ， sage ， rosemary and thyme.
Remember me to one who lives there.
【斯卡布罗集市原唱原版】She once was a true love of mine.
Tell her to make me a cambric shirt.
(Oh the side of a hill in the deep forest green)
Parsley ， sage ， rosemary and thyme.
(Tracing of sparrow on the snow crested brown)
Without no seams nor needle work.
(Blankets and bedclothes the child of the mountain)
Then she`ll be ture love of main.
(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)
Parsley ， sage ， rosemary and thyme.
(Washes the grave with silvery tears)
Between the salt water and the sea strand.
(A soldier cleans and publishes a gun)
Then she`ll be a true love of mine.
Tell her to reap it with a sickle of leather.
(War bells blazing in scarlet battalion)
Parsley ， sage ， rosemary and thyme.
(Generals order their soldiers to kill)
And 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.
