Suckling, Sir John: Song: Out upon it, I have lov’d

Portre of Suckling, Sir John

Song: Out upon it, I have lov’d (English)

Out upon it, I have lov’d

Three whole days together;

And am like to love three more,

If it prove fair weather.

 

Time shall moult away his wings,

Ere he shall discover

In the whole wide world again

Such a constant lover.

 

But the spite on’t is, no praise

Is due at all to me;

Love with me had made no stays,

Had it any been but she.

 

Had it any been but she,

And that very face,

There had been at least ere this

A dozen dozen in her place.

Dal (Hungarian)

Fékomadta, már lobog

három nap szerelmem;

még háromig lángolok,

csak eső ne essen.

 

Világ fölött az Idő

szárnyát is levedli,

s szívre nem fog lelni ő,

mely így tud szeretni.

 

S kórság rá: ezért nekem

dicshimnusz ne zengjen:

nem béklyóz így szerelem,

ha nem ő szerelmem.

 

Ha nem ő szerelmem,

s más arcot mutat,

volna kit lajstromba szednem

tizenkét tucat.
