Original text and translations

O mistress mine, where are you roaming?\\ O mistress mine, where are you roaming?\\ O, stay and hear; your true love's coming,\\ That can sing both high and low:\\ Trip no further, pretty sweeting;\\ Journeys end in lovers meeting,\\ Every wise man's son doth know.

What is love? 'tis not hereafter;\\ What is love? 'tis not hereafter;\\ Present mirth hath present laughter;\\ What's to come is still unsure:\\ In delay there lies no plenty;\\ Then come kiss me, sweet and twenty,\\ Youth's a stuff will not endure.
