Visul unei nopti de vara (Editie bilingva)

Dar dac-aceasta-i voia sortii rele,Sa induram si noi primejdii grele.Ca toti iubitii, — noi s-avem rabdare,Ca nu-i pe lume-amor lipsit de chin,De ganduri negre si de-adanc suspin,De dor, de lacrimi si de griji amare!If then true lovers have been ever cross’d,It stands as an edict in destiny:Then let us teach our trial patience,Because it is a customary cross,As due to love as thoughts and dreams and sighs,Wishes and tears, poor fancy’s followers.
