Original text and translations
English text
Why should I love since she doth prove ungrateful?
Since for reward I reap nought but disdain;
love thus to be requited, it is hateful,
and reason would I should not love in vain.
Yet all in vain, when all is out of season,
for love hath no society with reason.
German translation
Warum sollte ich lieben, da sie undankbar ist?
Denn mein Lohn ist nur, dass sie mich verschmäht.
Liebe so zu vergelten ist abscheulich,
und die Vernunft sagt mir, ich sollte nicht vergeblich lieben.
Doch ist alles vergeblich, kommt es zur Unzeit,
denn Vernunft ist nie der Liebe Begleiter.
