Mine eye and heart are at a mortal war
我的眼睛和心正吵成一團，
How to divide the conquest of thy sight;
爭搶著要分享你的芳顏。
Mine eye my heart thy picture's sight would bar,
眼睛不許心兒親睹你的倩影，
My heart mine eye the freedom of that right.
心兒不許眼晴把你自由觀看。
My heart doth plead that thou in him dost lie,
心兒聲稱你本來就棲居在它的領土，
A closet never pierced with crystal eyes,
無人能窺其堂奧，縱有雷亮的眼珠，
But the defendant doth that plea deny
然而眼睛全不認心的申訴，
And says in him thy fair appearance lies.
堅持說惟明眸方使你花容長駐。
To 'cide this title is impanneled
這一場公案究竟如何定，
A quest of thoughts, all tenants to the heart,
起伏心潮，終須斷案有主。
And by their verdict is determined
左思右想才定出一個判詞兒，
The clear eye's moiety and the dear heart's part:
使亮眼不虧，柔心不負：
As thus; mine eye's due is thy outward part,
你外表的美由我的眼睛占有，
And my heart's right thy inward love of heart.
你內在的愛由我的心兒消受
