Sylvia Plath: Child (English)

 
Your clear eye is the one absolutely beautiful thing. 
I want to fill it with color and ducks, 
The zoo of the new 

Whose name you meditate -- 
April snowdrop, Indian pipe, 
Little 

Stalk without wrinkle, 
Pool in which images 
Should be grand and classical 

Not this troublous 
Wringing of hands, this dark 
Ceiling without a star. 

Sylvia Plath: Enfant (French)

 
Votre oeil clair est l'une chose absolument belle. Je veux le remplir 
de couleur et de canards, le zoo du nouveau 

À qui nom tu médites -- snowdrop d'avril, pipe indienne, peu 

Égrapper sans ride, la piscine dans laquelle les images devraient 
être grandes et classiques 

Non cet extorsion troublous des mains, ce plafond foncé sans étoile. 

Sylvia Plath: Kind (German)

 
Ihr freies Auge ist die eine absolut schöne Sache. Ich möchte es mit 
Farbe und Enten, der Zoo füllen vom neuen 

Wem Namen Sie meditieren -- April snowdrop, indisches Rohr, 
wenig 

Ohne Knicke, Lache anpirschen, in der Bilder großartig und klassisch 
sein sollten 

Nicht dieses troublous Auspressen der Hände, diese dunkle Decke ohne 
einen Stern. 

Sylvia Plath: Criança (Portuguese)

 
Seu olho desobstruído é a uma coisa absolutamente bonita. Eu quero 
enchê-lo com a cor e os patos, o jardim zoológico do novo 

De quem nome você meditate -- snowdrop de abril, tubulação indian, 
pouco 

Stalk sem enrugamento, o pool em que as imagens devem ser grandes e 
classical 

Não este wringing troublous das mãos, este teto escuro sem uma 
estrela. 

Sylvia Plath: Niño (Spanish)

 
Su ojo claro es la una cosa absolutamente hermosa. Deseo llenarlo del 
color y de los patos, el parque zoológico del nuevo 

De quién nombre usted meditate -- snowdrop de abril, pipa india, 
poco 

Acechar sin la arruga, la piscina en la cual las imágenes deben ser 
magníficas y clásicas 

El no este sacar troublous de manos, este techo oscuro sin una 
estrella.
