Romeo and Juliet — Page 4

English → Pt ACT I Level 9/10

Three civil brawls, bred of an airy word,

Três brigas civis, geradas por uma palavra vã,

By thee, old Capulet, and Montague,

Por ti, velho Capuleto, e Montéquio,

Have thrice disturb'd the quiet of our streets,

Perturbaram três vezes a paz de nossas ruas,

And made Verona's ancient citizens

E fizeram os antigos cidadãos de Verona

Cast by their grave beseeming ornaments,

Abandonarem seus ornamentos de aparência solene,

To wield old partisans, in hands as old,

Para empunharem velhas alabardas, em mãos igualmente velhas,

Canker'd with peace, to part your canker'd hate.

Enferrujadas pela paz, para separar vosso ódio corroído.

If ever you disturb our streets again,

Se alguma vez perturbarem nossas ruas novamente,

Your lives shall pay the forfeit of the peace.

Suas vidas pagarão a pena pela quebra da paz.

For this time all the rest depart away:

Por ora, todos os demais se retirem:

You, Capulet, shall go along with me,

Vós, Capuleto, ireis comigo,

And Montague, come you this afternoon,

E Montéquio, vinde esta tarde,

To know our farther pleasure in this case,

Para conhecer nossa determinação acerca deste caso,

To old Free-town, our common judgement-place.

À velha Villafranca, nosso tribunal comum.

Once more, on pain of death, all men depart.

Mais uma vez, sob pena de morte, todos se retirem.

[_Exeunt Prince and Attendants; Capulet, Lady Capulet, Tybalt, Citizens and Servants._]

[_Saem o Príncipe e os Assistentes; Capuleto, Lady Capuleto, Tibaldo, Cidadãos e Servos._]

Who set this ancient quarrel new abroach?

Quem reabriu esta antiga disputa?

Speak, nephew, were you by when it began?

Fala, sobrinho, estavas presente quando começou?

Here were the servants of your adversary

Aqui estavam os servos do vosso adversário

And yours, close fighting ere I did approach.

E os vossos, lutando de perto antes de eu me aproximar.

I drew to part them, in the instant came

Desembainhai minha espada para separá-los, quando surgiu

The fiery Tybalt, with his sword prepar'd,

O impetuoso Tibaldo, com sua espada em punho,

Which, as he breath'd defiance to my ears,

O qual, enquanto soprava desafios aos meus ouvidos,

He swung about his head, and cut the winds,

A girava sobre sua cabeça, cortando os ventos,

Who nothing hurt withal, hiss'd him in scorn.

Que, sem sofrerem dano algum, assobiaram em seu escárnio.

While we were interchanging thrusts and blows

Enquanto trocávamos estocadas e golpes

Came more and more, and fought on part and part,

Vieram cada vez mais, e lutaram de ambos os lados,

Till the Prince came, who parted either part.

Até que o Príncipe chegou, e separou ambas as partes.

O where is Romeo, saw you him today?

Oh, onde está Romeu, o vistes hoje?

Right glad I am he was not at this fray.

Fico muito feliz que ele não tenha estado nesta briga.
