Discover the story of the song > Scarborough Fair – MALINDA

The song is about a woman who asks someone to deliver a message to her former lover who lives in Scarborough Fair. She asks the person to tell her former lover to make her a special shirt without any seams or needlework, and then he will be her true love. She also asks him to find her an acre of land by the sea, and then he will be her true love. Finally, she asks him to reap the land with a leather sickle and gather it with heather, and then he will be her true love.
