Sonnet 29 When in disgrace with fortune and men's eyes
http://www.william-shakespeare.info/william-shakespeare-sonnet-29.htm
When, in disgrace with fortune and men's eyes,
I all alone beweep my outcast state
And trouble deaf heaven with my bootless cries
And look upon myself and curse my fate,
Wishing me like to one more rich in hope,
Featured like him, like him with friends possess'd,
Desiring this man's art and that man's scope,
With what I most enjoy contented least;
Yet in these thoughts myself almost despising,
Haply I think on thee, and then my state,
Like to the lark at break of day arising
From sullen earth, sings hymns at heaven's gate;
For thy sweet love remember'd such wealth brings
That then I scorn to change my state with kings.

СОНЕТ 29 (пер. С.Маршака)
СОНЕТ 29 (пер. И. Мамуны)
Когда в раздоре с миром и судьбой,
Припомнив годы, полные невзгод,
Тревожу я бесплодною мольбой
Глухой и равнодушный небосвод
Когда, гонимый миром и судьбою,
Над участью своей я плачу в тишине
И, проклиная жизнь, напрасною мольбою
Тревожу небеса, не внемлющие мне;
И, жалуясь на горестный удел,
Готов меняться жребием своим
С тем, кто в искусстве больше преуспел,
Богат надеждой и людьми любим, -
Когда, завидуя с отчаяньем скупого
Всем благам ближнего, я для себя б хотел
Талантов одного и почестей другого
И не доволен всем, что мне дано в удел…
Тогда, внезапно вспомнив о тебе,
Я малодушье жалкое кляну,
И жаворонком, вопреки судьбе,
Моя душа несется в вышину.
О, если в этот миг бесплодного мученья
Случайно вспомню я, подруга, о тебе,—
Как птичка Божия, почуяв пробужденье
Светила дня,—я гимн пою судьбе.
С твоей любовью, с памятью о ней
Всех королей на свете я сильней.
И так счастлив тогда любовию моею,
Что лучшей участи желать себе не смею.
