The song is about a man giving a lover of his impossible tasks, that if completed, may allow the woman to become a lover of his again.
The lyrics go Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and Thyme at one point. In the Variations of this, it is the Euphonium solo around measure 105. The actual words, however, are speculated upon. Some believe it is a reference to stopping the Black Death with certain herbs, for which those are their names.
Some believe that is is a reference to sweetness, courage, faith, and other things related to the herbs.
PS - I'd forgotten--here are the lyrics from the Simon and Garfunkel version.
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
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
Without no seams nor needle work
Then she'll be a true love of mine
Tell her to find me an acre of land
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
Between the salt water and the sea strands
Then she'll be a true love of mine
Tell her to reap it with a sickle of leather
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
And gather it all in a bunch of heather
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
