Product Description

Poem by SN Solomons inspired by the poem A peine défigurée by Paul Eluard
Sound sample performed by the composer
Original poem:

À peine défigurée

Adieu tristesse,
Bonjour tristesse.
Tu es inscrite dans les lignes du plafond.
Tu es inscrite dans les yeux que j'aime
Tu n'es pas tout à fait la misère,
Car les lèvres les plus pauvres te dénoncent
Par un sourire.

Bonjour tristesse.
Amour des corps aimables.
Puissance de l'amour
Dont l'amabilité surgit
Comme un monstre sans corps.
Tête désappointée.
Tristesse, beau visage.

Version by S N Solomons

SCARCELY DISFIGURED

Sadness farewell
And welcome sadness
You are inscribed aloft
And in the eyes I love
And yet not misery while
The poorest lips remove
You with a smile.

Welcome then sadness
Friend to flesh
And lusting urge
Whose pleasures surge
All bodiless
Scarcely disfigured
The fine face of sadness.
