I give up my big and bright love
If you constantly argue with me
And try to throw down your glove.
Let it be as it should be!
I'm tired of our argument.
It is empty and eternal,
It won't stop in a moment.
Our relationship is not normal.
Lies have settled in your brain,
And I can't listen to your words,
And knowing this brings me pain.
We are ordinary people, not lords.
Since my appeal says I did strive to prove
The constancy and virtue of your love.*
* The last two lines are from William Shakespeare's Sonnet 117: Accuse Me Thus: That I Have Scanted All

This is very sad, dear Yuri!
"Oh wert thou in the cauld blast,
On yonder lea, on yonder lea;
My plaidie to the angry airt,
I’d shelter thee, I’d shelter thee:
Or did Misfortune’s bitter storms
Around thee blaw, around thee blaw,
Thy bield should be my bosom,
To share it a’, to share it a’.
Or were I in the wildest waste,
Sae black and bare, sae black and bare,
The desert were a Paradise,
If thou wert there, if thou wert there.
Or were I monarch o’ the globe,
Wi’ thee to reign, wi’ thee to reign;
The brightest jewel in my crown
Wad be my queen, wad be my queen"
Robert Burns
These are also sad poems about love. Do you know the history of their origin?
