英文

That thou hast her it is not all my grief,

And yet it may be said I loved her dearly;

That she hath thee is of my wailing chief,

A loss in love that touches me more nearly.

Loving offenders thus I will excuse ye:

Thou dost love her, because thou know'st I love her;

And for my sake even so doth she abuse me,

Suffering my friend for my sake to approve her.

If I lose thee, my loss is my love's gain,

And losing her, my friend hath found that loss;

Both find each other, and I lose both twain,

And both for my sake lay on me this cross.

But here's the joy; my friend and I are one;

Sweet flattery! then she loves but me alone.

你占有她，我并不十分悲戚，

尽管我对她确实一往情深；

我痛心疾首的是她占有你，

爱的丧失才让我五内俱焚。

爱的冒犯者，我为你们开脱：

你爱她，因为她是我的情人，

因为我的缘故，她才背叛我，

并允许我的朋友跟她调情。

失去你，你为我的情人所得，

失去她，她为我的朋友所获，

你们各有所得，我失去两个，

为了我，你们都在折磨着我。

　　但苦中有乐，因为你我同体；

　　甜美的慰藉！我是她的唯一。
