未敢言愛｜莎士比亞十四行詩 26

Lord of my love, to whom in vassalage
統御我情意，奉卿為主公，
Thy merit hath my duty strongly knit,
而卿有懿德，牢牢繫我忠，
To thee I send this written embassage
使臣我遣去，對君表這封，
To witness duty, not to show my wit;
見證我忠誠，不獻我機鋒。

Duty so great, which wit so poor as mine
忠誠也無盡，機鋒卻貧窮，
May make seem bare, in wanting words to show it,
不足故裸露，文辭竟難工；
But that I hope some good conceit of thine
願卿用心裁，巧思且善用，
In thy soul’s thought, all naked, will bestow it;
補我袒露意，使之不落空。

Till whatsoever star that guides my moving
直到有星辰，引領命運從，
Points on me graciously with fair aspect,
指點我迷津，吉兆幸相逢；
And puts apparel on my tattered loving
披我金縷衣，我情襤褸中，
To show me worthy of thy sweet respect.
將證我價值，得卿以尊重。

Then may I dare to boast how I do love thee;
屆時敢宣告，愛卿情意濃，
Till then, not show my head where thou mayst prove me. 
未至寧隱世，待卿驗心衷。
