when in disgrace with fortune and men's eyes (sonnet 29) - rufus wainwright lyrics

[verse 1]
when in disgrace with fortune and men’s eyes
i all alone beweep my outcast state
and trouble deaf heaven with my bootless cries
and look upon myself and curse my fate
[refrain]
wishing me like to one more rich in hope
featured like him, like him with friends possessed
desiring this man’s art, and that man’s scope
with what i most enjoy contented least
yet in these thoughts myself almost despising
haply i think on thee and then my state
like to the lark at break of day arising
from sullen earth sings hymns at heaven’s gate
[outro]
for thy sweet love remembered such wealth brings
that then i scorn to change my state with kings
