My mistress eyes are nothing like the sun
My lovers eyes are nothing like the sun
Coral is far more red than her lips red
Coal is much more red than her lips
If snow be white, why then her breast are dun
If snow is white, than her breast are dun
If hair be wires, black wires grow on her head
If hair was wires, then black wires grow on her head
I have seen roses damask’d, red and white
I’ve seen pink roses, and red and white
But no such roses I see in her cheeks
But I don’t see roses in her cheeks
And some perfume is there more delight
And in some perfumes is there more delight
Than in the breath that from my mistress reeks
But her breathe still reeks
I love to hear her speak, yet well I know
I love to hear her talk, but yet I know
That music hath a far more pleasing sound
That music makes a way better sound
I grant I never saw a goddess go
I’ve never seen a goddess go
My mistress when she walks treads on the ground
My lover when she walks leaves footprints on the ground
And yet by heaven, I think my love is rare
And yet by heaven, I think my love is rare
As any, she belied with false compare
Compare her to anyone and its not fair
