Eugène Émile Paul Grindel (1895 - 1952), as Paul Éluard
Tout disparut
Language: French (Français)
Tout disparut même les toits même le ciel
Même l'ombre tombée des branches
Sur les cimes des mousses tendres
Même les mots et les regards bien accordés
Soeurs miroitières de mes larmes
Les étoiles brillaient autour de ma fenêtre
Et mes yeux refermant leurs ailes pour la nuit
Vivaient d'un univers sans bornes.
Confirmed with Paul Éluard, Œuvres complètes, Vol. 1, Paris: Gallimard, 1968, Page 1027.

Tot desaparegué
Language: Catalan (Català) after the French (Français)
Tot desaparegué fins i tot les teulades fins i tot el cel
Fins i tot l’ombra caiguda de les branques
Damunt els cims de molses tendres
Fins i tot els mots i els esguards ben avinguts
Germanes mirallejades de les meves llàgrimes
Les estrelles brillaven al voltant de la meva finestra
I els meus ulls tancant les seves ales per a la nit
Vivien d’un univers sense límits.
