English term or phrase: kiss me through it soon
Hola,

tengo que traducir estas dos líneas de un poema de Algernon Charles Swinburne:

Love, sleep and death go to the same sweet tune;
Hold my hair fast, and kiss me through it soon.

Mi intento: El amor, el sueño y la muerte bailan la misma melodía dulce;
Agarra mi cabello rápidamente y bésame pronto a través de él.

Muchas gracias por vuestra ayuda

Sujeta fuertemente mi cabello, y con tus besos, hazme pasar por ellos prontamente


Explanation:
Concuerdo con Sandra en cuanto a que se refiere a la amada con "love".

Pienso que le pide que lo bese para pasar rápidamente el momento de la muerte o el momento del dormir.

Al decir "hold fast" no implica rápido, sino firme, fuertemente, sin soltar.

con tus besos, transp0rtame a su consumaci0n


Explanation:
Borrowing liberally from the suggestions of others:

El amor, el sueño y la muerte de una misma tonada dulce son, AgArrame fuerte del pelo y con tus besos, transp0rtame a su consumaci0n.

The antecedent of "it" is not quite clear, and luckily "su" maintains that ambiguity.

Amor, el sueño y la muerte de una misma tonada son;


Explanation:
Amor es aquí la amada, no el amor.

Disculpa Laura, no me percaté de que quedó incompleta la respuesta. Debía decir:

Amor, el sueño y la muerte de una misma dulce tonada son; prende mi cabello, fuerte, y con tus besos aligera mi transición.
