Sigh no more, ladies, sigh no more,
Men were deceivers ever;
One foot in sea, and one on shore,
To one thing constant never.
Then sigh not so,
But let them go,
And be you blith and bonny,
Converting all your sounds of woe
Into Hey nonny, nonny.
Sing no more ditties, sing no mo
Of dumps so dull and heavy;
The fraud of men was ever so,
Since summer first was leavy.
Then sigh not so,
But let them go,
And be you blith and bonny,
Converting all your sounds of woe
Into Hey nonny, nonny.

I believe Shakespeare always had somewhat of a feminine side. It seems to show in many of his works, but none as strongly as this one. I do enjoy the tone the most. It does have a touch of sadness, but only a slight touch. I did enjoy this one.

Into Hey nonny, nonny.
Meaning very sweet...Shakespeare has the superhuman excellence...all times Great...

Seems like shakespeare had a feminine side, most men wouldn't have known what he was talking about, I suppose his creative side came from his feminine side... whoops, sorry guys, only kidding.............. great poem.................

this poem is sweet.. and has a hint of sadness to it, like this guy knew wat men put women through, and was sayin 'hey, not every guy is like tht, im on ur side, keep tryin n ull find someone' kinda thing

Good going Shakespeare... you really rock for an old dead guy!
This is such a beautiful poem, So touchingly sad... it's funny that a man wrote this though... you'd think a woman would have... Though it makes sence that it's a man telling the woman to get over it a find a new guy... I hate to be steriotypical, BUT isn't that just so like a guy...
