Romeo and Juliet — Page 8
Bid a sick man in sadness make his will,
Pedir a um homem doente que, em tristeza, faça seu testamento,
A word ill urg'd to one that is so ill.
É uma palavra mal dirigida a quem está tão mal.
In sadness, cousin, I do love a woman.
Em verdade, primo, eu amo uma mulher.
I aim'd so near when I suppos'd you lov'd.
Eu quase acertei quando supus que você amava.
A right good markman, and she's fair I love.
Um bom atirador, e ela é bela, aquela que eu amo.
A right fair mark, fair coz, is soonest hit.
Um alvo bem claro, belo primo, é o mais fácil de acertar.
Well, in that hit you miss: she'll not be hit
Pois bem, nesse acerto você erra: ela não será atingida
With Cupid's arrow, she hath Dian's wit;
Pela flecha de Cupido, pois tem o engenho de Diana;
And in strong proof of chastity well arm'd,
E em sólida prova de castidade bem armada,
From love's weak childish bow she lives uncharm'd.
Do fraco e infantil arco do amor ela vive encantada.
She will not stay the siege of loving terms
Ela não suportará o cerco de palavras amorosas
Nor bide th'encounter of assailing eyes,
Nem suportará o encontro de olhos assediantes,
Nor ope her lap to saint-seducing gold:
Nem abrirá seu colo ao ouro que seduz os santos:
O she's rich in beauty, only poor
Oh, ela é rica em beleza, apenas pobre
That when she dies, with beauty dies her store.
Pois quando ela morrer, com sua beleza morre seu tesouro.
Then she hath sworn that she will still live chaste?
Então ela jurou que viverá sempre casta?
She hath, and in that sparing makes huge waste;
Jurou, e nessa parcimônia causa enorme desperdício;
For beauty starv'd with her severity,
Pois a beleza, faminta com sua severidade,
Cuts beauty off from all posterity.
Corta a beleza de toda a posteridade.
She is too fair, too wise; wisely too fair,
Ela é formosa demais, sábia demais; sabiamente formosa demais,
To merit bliss by making me despair.
Para merecer a bem-aventurança fazendo-me desesperar.
She hath forsworn to love, and in that vow
Ela renunciou ao amor por juramento, e nesse voto
Do I live dead, that live to tell it now.
Eu vivo morto, eu que vivo para contá-lo agora.
Be rul'd by me, forget to think of her.
Deixa-te guiar por mim, esquece de pensar nela.
O teach me how I should forget to think.
Oh, ensina-me como devo esquecer de pensar.
By giving liberty unto thine eyes;
Dando liberdade aos teus olhos;
Examine other beauties.
Examina outras belezas.
'Tis the way
Esse é o caminho
To call hers, exquisite, in question more.
Para chamar a dela, exquisita, ainda mais em questão.
