Lo in the Orient when the gracious light,
Lifts up his burning head, each under eye
Doth homage to his new appearing sight,
Serving with looks his sacred majesty,
And having climb'd the steep up heavenly hill,
Resembling strong youth in his middle age,
Yet mortal looks adore his beauty still,
Attending on his golden pilgrimage:
But when from high-most pitch with weary car,
Like feeble age he reeleth from the day,
The eyes ('fore duteous) now converted are
From his tract and look another way:
So thou, thyself out-going in thy noon,
Unlook'd on diest unless thou get a son.
Mira por el Oriente, cuando la luz graciosa,
arde y brilla en su testa. Ante esto los ojos,
rinden sus homenajes a la visión reciente,
loando con miradas, su majestad sagrada.
Y cuando ya ha escalado, la cima celestial,
muestra su juventud y edad adolescente.
Aún la mortal mirada, adora su belleza,
siguiendo su rodado, caminar de romero.
Mas al llegar al cénit, con su cansado carro,
como un viejo achacoso, del día se retira.
Los ojos más devotos, desvían su mirada
de su cálido rumbo y miran a otra parte.
Así, cuando te alejes de ti en tu mediodía,
nadie querrá mirarte, si no has tenido un hijo.
The english version (the original) is richer in imagery, historically faithful, but difficult for modern readers due to the archaic grammar and vocabulary but in the spanish version we have more accessible, modernized, and straightforward writing, making it easier to read but less elaborated and less linguistically antique
