Ce que je suis [English translation]

What I am

remains (an) incomprehensible

obscure inconceivable thing

indefinable to mankind

(through) all space and time I move

(within) millions of Andromeda galaxies

there is nothing (that) I was not

Everything but/except a heart

Up there, (high/far) above the depths

I am mass, I am weight*, I am splendor/magnificence

I am everything, I am nothing

nothing that I've not been

I was the proven iron of the sword

the old oak striving in/within the forest

I am everything, I am nothing

From/through eternity

I am the book

at its beginning

the very first word of this book,

the spark on the blank space,

the emerald depths/substance of Lucifer

(as) Those that cast (themselves) on briars.

There's nothing that I wasn't at all,

Everything but/except a heart

Up there, (high/far) above the depths

I am mass, I am weight, I am splendor/magnificence

I am everything, I am nothing

nothing that I've not been

I know the bright stars in (the) sky/heaven,

but nothing of your poor mortal caresses

I am everything, I am nothing

From/through eternity

I sailed on all the waves

I capsized so many boats

I am everything, I am nothing

as I have been

Up there, well above the depths

it is love, and its sweetness that is missing

I search in vain, I search in vain

I search for one victorious
