Let No Man Steal Your Thyme - Carey Mulligan, Michael Sheen

Carey Mulligan and Michael Sheen performing the British/Irish folksong “Let No Man Steal Your Thyme“ from the movie “Far From the Madding Crowd“. I do not own any rights to this video. Just uploading it for my own entertainment because I love the simple arrangement. It’s so beautiful. Definitely one of the best scenes from the 2015 film. Lyrics from Sumaya Paruk: Come all you fair and tender girls That flourish in your prime Beware, beware, keep your garden fair Let no man steal your thyme Let no man steal your thyme For when your thyme, it is past and gone He’ll care no more for you And every place your time was waste Will all spread over with rue Will all spread over with rue The gardner son was standing by Three flowers he gave to me The pink, the blue and the violet true And the red, red rosy tree And the red, red rosy tree But I refused the red rose bush And gained the willow tree That all the world may plainly see How my love slighted me How my love slighted me (C) 2015 Twentieth Century Fox Film Corporation under exclusive license to Sony Classical, a division of Sony Music Entertainment
