Scarborough Fair原是一首古老的英国民歌，其起源可一直追溯到中世纪，保罗·西蒙在英国学习期间从英国民歌歌手Martin Carthy（马汀·卡西）处学会了这首民歌，并对其进行改编，加入了自己创作的一首The Side of A Hill 作为副歌。由加芬克尔（Art Garfunkel）作曲并演唱的副歌做为歌曲的和音在听觉的感受上不是特彆强烈，因此很多人对副歌不太留意，认为副歌只是歌唱的一种处理形式，实际上副歌却是整个歌曲的灵魂，赋予了歌曲以反战的主题。该歌曲还被用作电影《毕业生》的插曲，大受20世纪60年代美国大学生欢迎。Paul Simon
歌词
男版
Are you going to Scarborough Fair?您要去斯卡波罗集市吗？
Parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme 香芹，鼠尾草，迷迭香和百里香
Remember me to one who lives there 代我向那儿的一位姑娘问好
She once was the true love of mine 她曾是我的挚爱
Tell her to make me a cambric shirt 告诉她替我做件麻布衬衫
(On the side of a hill, in the deep forest green 山的一边，绿林深处)
Parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme 香芹，鼠尾草，迷迭香和百里香
(Tracing of sparrow on the snow crested ground 白雪覆盖的土地上追逐雀儿)
Without no seams nor needlework 不用缝合，也无需针线
(Blankets and bedclothes the child of the mountain 大山之子的毛毯和床单)
Then she'll be a true love of mine 那她就是我的挚爱
(Sleeps unaware of the clarion call 熟睡中不觉号角声阵阵)
Tell her to find me an acre of land 告诉她替我找一块土地
(On the side of a hill, a sprinkling of leaves 山的一边，零星的叶)
Parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme 香芹，鼠尾草，迷迭香和百里香
(Washes the grave with silvery tears 似银的泪水沖刷着坟茔)
Between the salt water and the sea strand 在海水和海滨之间
(A soldier cleans and polishes a gun 士兵擦拭着枪枝)
Then she'll be a true love of mine 那她就是我的挚爱
Tell her to reap it in a sickle of leather 告诉她用皮镰来收割
(War bellows, blazing in scarlet battalion 战火呼啸，王师浴血)
Parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme 香芹，鼠尾草，迷迭香和百里香
(Generals order their soldiers to kill 将军们命令麾下士兵屠戮)
And gather it all in a bunch of heather 用石楠草綑扎成束
(And to fight for a cause they've long ago forgotten 为一个早已遗忘的理由而战)
Then she'll be a true love of mine 那她就是我的挚爱

Without no seams nor needlework.
Then he'll be a true love of mine.
Tell him to find me an acre of land.

诗经体
（译者：莲波）
问尔所之，是否如适。 Are you going to Scarborough Fair?
蕙兰芫荽，郁郁香芷。 Parsley sage rosemary and thyme.
彼方淑女，凭君寄辞。 Remember me to one who lives there.
伊人曾在，与我相知。 She once was a true love of mine.
嘱彼佳人，备我衣缁。 Tell her to make me a cambric shirt.
蕙兰芫荽，郁郁香芷。 Parsley sage rosemary and thyme.
勿用针砧，无隙无疵。 Without no seams nor needle work.
伊人何在，慰我相思。 Then she will be a true love of mine.
（伴唱）
彼山之阴，深林荒址。 On the side of hill in the deep forest green,
冬寻毡毯，老雀燕子。 Tracing of sparrow on snow crested brown.
雪覆四野，高山迟滞。 Blankets and bed clothes the child of mountain
眠而不觉，寒笳清嘶。 Sleeps unaware of the clarion call.
嘱彼佳人，营我家室。 Tell her to find me an acre of land.
蕙兰芫荽，郁郁香芷。 Parsley sage rosemary and thyme.
良田所修，大海之坻。 Between the salt water and the sea strand,
伊人应在，任我相视。 Then she will be a true love of mine.
（伴唱）
彼山之阴，叶疏苔蚀。 On the side of hill a sprinkling of leaves
涤我孤冢，珠泪渐渍。 Washes the grave with slivery tears.
惜我长剑，日日拂拭。 A soldier cleans and polishes a gun.
寂而不觉，寒笳长嘶。 Sleeps unaware of the clarion call.
嘱彼佳人，收我秋实。 Tell her to reap it with a sickle of leather.
蕙兰芫荽，郁郁香芷。 Parsley sage rosemary and thyme.
敛之集之，勿弃勿失。 And gather it all in a bunch of heather.
伊人犹在，唯我相誓。 Then she will be a true love of mine.
（伴唱）
烽火印啸，浴血之师。 War bellows blazing in scarlet battalions.
将帅有令，勤王之事。 Generals order their soldiers to kill
争斗缘何，久忘其旨。 And to fight for a cause they have long ago forgotten.
