11 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 As any, she belied with false compare Compare her to anyone and its not fair
