The poem is very simply understood other than the language it is worded in so I will simply reword it for you. Keep in mind that the speaker is a male and he is talking to a rose.

Go, lovely rose, (an actual rose, not the name of the girl)

Tell her, the girl who wastes her time and mine, (He is telling the rose to talk to her)

So that she will know

When I compare her to you (the rose),

That she still appears sweet and fair.

Tell her, the girl that is young

And shy

That if you (the rose) had grown

In a desert with no people

That you (the rose) would have died without ever being praised for your beauty.

Hidden beauty is worth little:

Tell her to come forth,

Ignore her shyness so that her beauty can be desired

And tell her not to blush as I admire her

Then die (telling the rose to die in front of her)

So that she will see that just as with all rare things

The time of her sweetness and fairness

Will be short lived
