Steemit Open Mic Week 82: Scarborough Fair (Acoustic cover)

in #openmic6 years ago (edited)

Hi!

This is my entry for steemit openmic week 82. In this time I sing ¨Scarborough Fair¨ with my friend Alejandro Estevez (@acrywhif). ¨Scarborough Fair¨ is a traditional English ballad.


Alejandro played the guitar and I played the mandolin.

Lyrics

Are you going to Scarborough Fair
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
Remember me to one who lives there
She once was a true love of mine
Tell her to make me a cambric shirt (deep forest green)
Parsley sage rosemary and thyme
Without no seams nor needle work (blankets and bedclothes the child of the mountain)
Then she'll be a true love of mine (sleeps unaware of the clarion call)
Tell her to find me an acre of land (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 polishes a gun)
She'll be a true love of mine
Tell her to reap it with a sickle of leather (War bellows blazing in scarlet battalions)
Parsley sage rosemary and thyme (General 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
Are you going to Scarborough Fair
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
Remember me to one who lives there
She once was a true love of mine

I left two of my favorite versions of this song.


Hope you all enjoy it!

¡Qué lindo, Zlatka! No sabía que tocabas la mandolina :)

¡Gracias @lilixblack! Sí, la toco pero aun estoy aprendiendo. Deberíamos hacer un openmic juntas!! Tu voz es espectacular.

¡Sí, vale! Vamos a hacerlo :)

Por alguna razón siempre me ha gustado ésta canción. Que lindo performance.
