[quote=CANADAGUY,281670]Kevin I just wanted to make life a little easier for you and give you a rough translation of the sonnet from old English to something more modern. Of course the poem loses a lot of its charm when doing this 'translation' but at least you'll have a better understanding of what it's trying to say. Shall I compare you to a day in summer? You are more beautiful and less harsh: In summer, there are strong winds that shake the flowers, Summer is only with us for a short time: Sometimes the sun is too hot for comfort, And often there are cloudy days; All beautiful things eventually lose their attractiveness, By accident, or through the passing of time; But your attractiveness will not be lost, You won't lose the loveliness that you have; Even death can't cast a shadow over your beauty, Your beauty is recorded in print forever; For as long as civilization survives This poem will keep your memory alive.
