Romeo and Juliet — Page 9

English → Japanese ACT I Level 9/10

These happy masks that kiss fair ladies' brows,

美しい女性の額に触れるこれらの幸せな仮面は、

Being black, puts us in mind they hide the fair;

黒いがゆえに、美しさを隠しているのだと思い起こさせる。

He that is strucken blind cannot forget

盲目になってしまった者は忘れることができない、

The precious treasure of his eyesight lost.

失った視力という貴重な宝を。

Show me a mistress that is passing fair,

この上なく美しい女性を見せてくれ、

What doth her beauty serve but as a note

その美しさは何の役に立つのか、ただの手がかりとして以外に、

Where I may read who pass'd that passing fair?

その上なき美しさを超えた者が誰かを読み取るための。

Farewell, thou canst not teach me to forget.

さらば、お前は私に忘れることを教えることはできない。

BENVOLIO.

ベンヴォーリオ。

I'll pay that doctrine, or else die in debt.

その教えを果たしてみせよう、さもなければ借りを抱えたまま死ぬまで。

[_Exeunt._]

【退場】

SCENE II. A Street.

第二場。街路。

Enter Capulet, Paris and Servant.

キャピュレット、パリス、召使い、登場。

CAPULET.

キャピュレット。

But Montague is bound as well as I,

しかしモンタギューも私と同様に縛られており、

In penalty alike; and 'tis not hard, I think,

罰則も同じだ。そして難しいことではないと思う、

For men so old as we to keep the peace.

我々のような年老いた者にとって平和を保つことは。

PARIS.

パリス。

Of honourable reckoning are you both,

お二人とも名誉ある評判の方々、

And pity 'tis you liv'd at odds so long.

これほど長く不和のままであったのは残念なことだ。

But now my lord, what say you to my suit?

しかし今、殿、私の求婚についていかがお考えですか？

CAPULET.

キャピュレット。

But saying o'er what I have said before.

ただ以前申し上げたことを繰り返すだけです。

My child is yet a stranger in the world,

私の娘はまだこの世の中に不慣れな存在、

She hath not seen the change of fourteen years;

十四年の移り変わりをまだ見ていない。

Let two more summers wither in their pride

あと二つの夏がその盛りを過ぎ去るのを待ち、

Ere we may think her ripe to be a bride.

花嫁になる頃合いと思えるようになる前に。

PARIS.

パリス。

Younger than she are happy mothers made.

彼女より幼くして幸せな母親になる者もいる。

CAPULET.

キャピュレット。

そして早くに娶られた者はあまりにも早く傷つくものだ。
