Soneto 57

« » Soneto 57
Being your slave what should I do but tend Upon the hours, and times of your desire? I have no precious time at all to spend; Nor services to do, till you require. Nor dare I chide the world without end hour, Whilst I, my sovereign, watch the clock for you, Nor think the bitterness of absence sour, When you have bid your servant once adieu; Nor dare I question with my jealous thought Where you may be, or your affairs suppose, But, like a sad slave, stay and think of nought Save, where you are, how happy you make those. So true a fool is love, that in your will, Though you do anything, he thinks no ill.
–William Shakespeare

Being your slave what should I do but tend
Upon the hours, and times of your desire?
I have no precious time at all to spend;
Nor services to do, till you require.
Nor dare I chide the world without end hour,
Whilst I, my sovereign, watch the clock for you,
Nor think the bitterness of absence sour,
When you have bid your servant once adieu;
Nor dare I question with my jealous thought
Where you may be, or your affairs suppose,
But, like a sad slave, stay and think of nought
Save, where you are, how happy you make those.
So true a fool is love, that in your will,
Though you do anything, he thinks no ill.

–William Shakespeare

O Soneto 57 foi escrito por William Shakespeare e faz parte dos seus 154 sonetos.

Traduções

Na tradução de Thereza Christina Rocque da Motta,

Sendo teu escravo, o que fazer senão atender

Às horas e aos chamados de teu desejo?

Não tenho tempo algum para mim,

Nem serviços a fazer, até que me peças.

Nem ouso repreender a hora do mundo sem ﬁm,

Enquanto eu, minha soberana, sigo tuas horas,

Nem penso que a solidão da ausência seja amarga,

Após dispensar teu servo de teu serviço;

Nem ouso questionar com meus ciúmes

Onde andarás, ou imaginar o que fazes,

Mas, como um triste escravo, sento-me e não penso,

Salvo, onde estás e quão feliz fazes a todos:

Então, que tolo é o amor, que, sob teu jugo

(Embora nada faças), nenhum mal o assombre.^[1]
