Sonnet 75 by William Shakespeare

So are you to my thoughts as food to life,
Or as sweet-season'd showers are to the ground;
And for the peace of you I hold such strife
As 'twixt a miser and his wealth is found.

Now proud as an enjoyer, and anon
Doubting the filching age will steal his treasure;
Now counting best to be with you alone,
Then better'd that the world may see my pleasure:

Sometime all full with feasting on your sight,
And by and by clean starved for a look;
Possessing or pursuing no delight
Save what is had, or must from you be took.

Thus do I pine and surfeit day by day,
Or gluttoning on all, or all away.

75. szonett (fordította Szabó Lőrinc)

Az vagy nekem, mint testnek a kenyér
S tavaszi zápor fűszere a földnek;
Lelkem miattad örök harcban él,
Mint fösvény, kit pénze gondja öl meg;

Csupa fény és boldogság büszke elmém,
Majd fél: az idő ellop, eltemet;
Csak az enyém légy, néha azt szeretném,
Majd, hogy a világ lássa kincsemet;

Arcod varázsa csordultig betölt
S egy pillantásodért is sorvadok;
Nincs más, nem is akarok más gyönyört,
Csak amit tőled kaptam s még kapok.

Koldus-szegény királyi gazdagon,
Részeg vagyok és mindig szomjazom.
