Translation | “First of All” Love the Poetry (1929) by Paul Éluard

I

Aloud
The agile love rise
With such brilliant sparkles
Which in his attic the head
Had feat to all confess.

Aloud
All the claws of blood covered
The memory of other births
Then overturned in the light
The future covered by embraces.

Impossible injustice an only being is in the world
The love chooses the love without changing face.

II

His eyes are tricks of light
Under the front of his nudity.

To flower of transparency
The returns of thinkings
Cancelling the words which are daef.

She erase all images
She dazzles love and its wrecked shadows
She loves – she loves to forget.

III

The representatives all-powerful of desire
New born heavy eyes
To remove light
The arc of your breasts strained by blind
Which remembers your hands
Your thin hair
Is in the unaware flow of your head
Caresses on the skin

And your mouth which is silent
Can prove the impossible.
