Rhyme Scheme: ABCD EFDC GHIJ KLMD| Brown and agile child the sun which forms the fruit | A |
| And ripens the grain and twists the seaweed | B |
| Has made your happy body and your luminous eyes | C |
| And given your mouth the smile of water | D |
| - | |
| A black and anguished sun is entangled in the twigs | E |
| Of your black mane when you hold out your arms | F |
| You play in the sun as in a tidal river | D |
| And it leaves two dark pools in your eyes | C |

| Brown and agile child nothing draws me to you | G |
| Everything pulls away from me here in the noon | H |
| You are the delirious youth of bee | I |
| The drunkedness of the wave the power of the wheat | J |

| My somber heart seeks you always | K |
| I love your happy body your rich soft voice | L |
| Dusky butterfly sweet and sure | M |
| Like the wheatfiled the sun the poppy and the water | D |
