Sonnet 47
Betwixt mine eye and heart a league is took, |
And each doth good turns now unto the other: |
When that mine eye is famish'd for a look, |
Or heart in love with sighs himself doth smother, |
With my love's picture then my eye doth feast |
And to the painted banquet bids my heart; |
Another time mine eye is my heart's guest |
And in his thoughts of love doth share a part: |
So, either by thy picture or my love, |
Thyself away art resent still with me; |
For thou not farther than my thoughts canst move, |
And I am still with them and they with thee; |
Or, if they sleep, thy picture in my sight |
Awakes my heart to heart's and eye's delight. |
Shakespeare, Sonnet 47
(Inglês currente:
Between my eyes and heart a pact is made,
And they each now do good things for the other:
When my eyes are starved for a look (at you),
Or my heart smothers itself with sighs,
On my love's picture my eyes do feast
And my eyes call my heart to this beautiful picture;
Another time my eyes are my heart's guests
And in its thoughts of love do share a part:
So, either by your picture of my love,
You are still with me when you are away;
For you are not farther than my thoughts can move,
And I am always with them [my thoughts] as they are with you.
Or, if they are asleep, your picture before my eyes
Awakens my heart to the pleasures of both the heart and eye.)
