如题所述
首先描写了遥远苏格兰的气息。一片滨海的平原,海浪宁静而富有节奏的拍击着峭壁嶙峋的山崖,带来了大海那清新又包含生命力的气息,也带来了满载货物的三桅船。遥远的天际,长长的桅杆逐渐在视野里变得越来越清晰,船在平滑如镜的蔚蓝海面缓缓而行,宛然翱翔碧空的鹰隼。
帆船驶进小镇那古老而别致的港口,熟悉的店主奉上久违的笑容与问候,好比甘美的朗姆酒温柔拂过干燥的咽喉。杂货店主满意的接过那沉甸甸的木箱——那是香料的盛宴,欧芹、鼠尾草、百里香、迷迭香被阳光照射,与小镇丛生的野花一同散发出温暖芬芳的气息。
凛冽清爽的秋风裹挟着浓郁的馨香,掠过一望无际的田野,掠过即将封冻的河流,掠过亘古叹息的大海,直向辽远天际的血色残阳而去,那馨香犹如对远方情人的思念般不可抑制、历久弥新。
《斯卡布罗集市》的第二句唱到了四种花朵,香芹、鼠尾草、迷迭香和百里香(Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and Thyme),分别代表爱情的甜蜜,力量,忠诚和勇气。
在歌曲的二、三、四段,每一句的结尾,都有一个不太明显的声音在唱着另外的一套歌词,副歌的歌词是西蒙写的,而旋律则出自加芬克尔之手,副歌开始时如同秋天昏黄萧索的天空,沉静的讲述战争当中的种种苦难,艰辛。
这使得这一曲《斯卡布罗集市》不再仅仅是一首哀伤的恋歌,更是是一首尖锐的反战歌曲。那套歌词的内容讲述了一场战争。结合当时的背景,可能与反对越南战争有关。
斯卡布罗集市这首歌的歌词至少追溯到十三世纪的英格兰,至于曲调则更早,产生于苏格兰,很有可能受到了维京人和另一支蛮族凯尔特人的影响。

男士兵女学生这段是怎么来的?没想明白,有另外一个故事吗?
个人感觉sarah brightman这版无可超越。
《斯卡布罗集市》在诉说一个士兵思念着自己的恋人,想着她会给自己带来一件细麻布衬衫。可是,她死了,他自己也会很快死的。明天没有阳光,也没有方向。他只好,对着夜空不无绝望的低唱,“我在咸水和海滨之间(滴落的银色泪珠冲刷着坟茔)……叫她用一把皮镰收割(战火轰隆,猩红的枪弹在狂呼)/欧芹,鼠尾草,迷迭香和百里香(将军们命令麾下的士兵杀戮)/将收割的石楠扎成一束(为一个早已遗忘的理由而战)/她曾经是我的真爱。
