Sonnets of William Shakespeare-Sonnet 42

　　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 knowst 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，并非我最大的哀愁，

　　可是我對她的愛不能說不深;

　　她占有你，才是我主要的煩憂，

　　這愛情的損失更能使我傷心。

　　愛的冒犯者，我這樣原諒你們：

　　你所以愛她，因?yàn)闀缘梦覑鬯?

　　也是為我的原故她把我欺瞞，

　　讓我的朋友替我殷勤款待她。

　　失掉你，我所失是我情人所獲，

　　失掉她，我朋友卻找著我所失;

　　你倆互相找著，而我失掉兩個(gè)，

　　兩個(gè)都為我的原故把我磨折：

　　但這就是快樂：你和我是一體;

　　甜蜜的阿諛!她卻只愛我自己。
