      The meaning of love and about the counties called shires in old England This being were i live ,
      Yorkshire was all farms and back in those days hundreds of years ago the farmer road to Scarborough town on the coast were a pageant was held for young maidens who hoped to me a prospective husband .
      The pageant was held just out side the town and was held a few days a year .This itself ran for a few hundred years ..Many a love was found but back in those days life expectancy was not much than 30 years of age .So it was very important to find love but with so little people around and farmers were all ways working meant finding a lady was impossible .
      So they got the horse and cart,and on there way picking up other young farm hands and traveled with the farm owners . The farm owners would drop them off while they carried on into the town market to sell their goods . On there return the farm owner would pick up the farm hands and travel back to the farms .
      But one farm hand fell in love with a special lady and hoped to return to the pageant where he had made a promises to return . But unfortunately he died but leaving a message to asking his friend to deliver to the lady .
      Asking for here to bring 3white lilies to his grave ..to show and connect there wanting love ............So sad, .as...... did she take 3 white lilies and find his grave .
      We have here in England many church yards dating back a thousand years . Most placed on hills built of stone and towering hundreds of feet and all with grave yards .
      Were would he be ?
      The music connects these two lives ....showing how short life can be ............ My son died after suffering juvenile Huntington's Chorea , He never got to embrace a women or feel love . My daughter also died 6moths after my son , but she was lucky in having love even though only for a short while,
      So the farm hands love can be felt right through this song , just think how he felt on that wonderful day.................. Gene

    A man no one knows wrote this. Many many many years ago. His woman broke his trust, and this song was a list of things for her to accomplish before she could come back to him.
    Its amazing how a theme or message can last centuries even if the person who made that message was never known.

    Are you going to Scarborough Fair?
    Yesterday holds memories in time
    Remember me to the one who lives there
    She once was a true love of mine
    Tell her to think back upon younger days
    Yesterday holds memories in time
    And seek yonder crossroads where we parted ways
    Then she'll be a true love of mine
    Tell her to follow the path to the shire
    Yesterday holds memories in time
    For there she'll find her heart's true desire
    Then she'll be a true love of mine
    Tell her to come to the old willow tree
    Yesterday holds memories in time
    Where spirits of lost love yet whisper to thee
    Thou art still a true love of mine
    Tell her to gather three lilies of white
    Yesterday holds memories in time
    To place at my headstone, beneath the moon's light
    Then she'll be a true love of mine
    Forever she'll be the one true love of mine

    Beautiful, haunting song. I as 15 first I heard this song. Was living in Hollywood Ca.. Having lived in rural Al. and a country boy, it was almost magical living in the land of film. And the music I remember from those days haunt me still. We didn't stay there long before coming back to parts in the S.E. I'm glad we did come home, but the experience of California is one I'll always remember.

    I imagine walking along and seeing a young child, starving and dead eyed.
    As one of higher standing i kneel to peer at the lifeless eyes of a child of horrible fate and i smile, as she looks into my own. I offer my hand and she thoughtlessly takes it. Wisked away from death's door, and disease i spend time teaching her to read and write, and proper etiquette.
    She slowly opens up and begins to call me father. Her sweet voice like salve to the burned and spurned heart of mine.
    For many seasons, i watched her grow from lifeless child to adult. I know she will live long and beautiful life... One without me.
    A secret held, to my own grave, is she was chosen to inherit my things. She gave me the most beautiful love and far that, my spirit finally can rest. She will mourn, but she is strong. Her livelihood will be my final gift to that sweet girl I stumbled across.

    As a youngster, I used to attend lots of burials. I can still recall the sound of the church bells tolling farther and farther away as the deceased were lifted from their homes in a black horse-drawn carriage and taken down the 'Street of Heroes' towards the cemetery.
    The sound of the wheels of the carriage rolling on the paved road along with the church bells, the chants of the priests and the trail of Wailers following their beloved in utter agony still haunt me after all these years.
    After the coffin was lowered into the grave and the priest gave them their last rites, it was always remarkable to count how many shovels of earth would it take for widowed women or daughters to jump in the grave(most of whom didn't make it past two) and the sight of men trying their best to suppress their emotions in order to be strong for the greater good of the family(most of whom failed miserably).
    Many years have passed since I've left my old village. After my mind was tainted by the sinister forces that have rewoven society it was your "Angels Are Weeping" that resonated within me with the importance of faith and fate. That beautiful song which reminded me that nihilism, hedonism and disguised malevolence will only serve to undo all that our forefathers have given their lives in hope of achieving.
    And now you've taken an otherwise sad folk song and have turned it into what can closely resemble a dirge. This brings back my old view on the importance of life, love, friendship, and family by recalling on one of the eeriest nightmares that haunted my mind.
    Bells faintly tolling from the far away church, the sound of approaching carriage wheels, the chants, the wailing... all stuck in my head as I'm standing on my knees, chained to the earth in front of the same old cemetery. The sun slowly making its way downwards casting faint rays my way. The sunset. Although so many people consider it to be romantic, it has haunted me all of my life causing me to drown in euphory and depression. The long shadows of the gravestones slowly creep my way, knowing me...calling me... Whenever I try to cast my vision away it's forcefully returned to the scenery. All I can do is carry my burden and wait for the night. The same mistress who's eternal beauty is enveloping me into her star draped hair and caressing my soul.
    I'm 19. Why are your songs making me question my life before it has even fully begun?
