Scarborough Fair


Esta canción popular inglesa tiene sus orígenes posiblemente en la Edad Media y es de autor desconocido. Aunque ha sido "versioneada" muchas veces, una de las más conocidas es la versión de Simon & Garfunkel.

"Scarborough Fair" is a traditional ballad of Great Britain and more precisely Yorkshire.
The song relates the tale of a young man who instructs the listener to tell his former love to perform for him a series of impossible tasks, such as making him a shirt without a seam and then washing it in a dry well, adding that if she completes these tasks he will take her back. Often the song is sung as a duet, with the woman then giving her lover a series of equally impossible tasks, promising to give him his seamless shirt once he has finished.
