Romeo and Juliet — Page 10

English → Japanese ACT I Level 9/10

The earth hath swallowed all my hopes but she,

大地は彼女を除く私のすべての希望を飲み込んでしまった、

She is the hopeful lady of my earth:

彼女こそは私の大地の希望ある女主人:

But woo her, gentle Paris, get her heart,

だが彼女に求愛せよ、優しきパリス、彼女の心を手に入れよ、

My will to her consent is but a part;

私の意志は彼女の同意のほんの一部に過ぎない;

And she agree, within her scope of choice

彼女が同意すれば、彼女の選択の範囲の中に

Lies my consent and fair according voice.

私の同意と公正な賛同の声が宿る。

This night I hold an old accustom'd feast,

今宵私は古くからの慣わしの宴を催す、

Whereto I have invited many a guest,

そこへ数多くの客を招いてある、

Such as I love, and you among the store,

私が愛する者たちを、そしてその中にあなたも、

One more, most welcome, makes my number more.

もう一人、大歓迎の客が、その数を増やす。

At my poor house look to behold this night

今宵この貧しい我が家で目にすることになろう

Earth-treading stars that make dark heaven light:

暗い天を明るく照らす、地を歩む星々を:

Such comfort as do lusty young men feel

血気盛んな若者たちが感じるような喜びを、

When well apparell'd April on the heel

よく着飾った四月が足跡を踏んで

Of limping winter treads, even such delight

よろめく冬の後に続く時、まさにそのような喜びを

Among fresh female buds shall you this night

みずみずしい乙女たちの中に今宵あなたは

Inherit at my house.

我が家で受け取るであろう。

Hear all, all see,

すべてを聞き、すべてを見て、

And like her most whose merit most shall be:

最も優れた者を最も好ましく思うがよい:

Which, on more view of many, mine, being one,

多くを見比べた上で、私の娘も、その一人として、

May stand in number, though in reckoning none.

数に入るかもしれぬ、たとえ評判では及ばぬとも。

Come, go with me.

さあ、私と共に行こう。

Go, sirrah, trudge about

行け、こら、歩き回れ

Through fair Verona; find those persons out

美しきヴェローナ中を;あの者たちを探し出せ

Whose names are written there, [_gives a paper_] and to them say,

そこに名が書かれている者たちを、[_紙を渡す_] そして彼らに言え、

My house and welcome on their pleasure stay.

我が家とその歓迎が彼らのお越しを待ちわびていると。

[_Exeunt Capulet and Paris._]

ここに名が書かれている者たちを探し出せ!
