There is a list of Neruda in English in Ilan Stavans's 2003 anthology, pp. 946–9. As far as I know, the first single poem translated into English was by Andrew Boyd for Grigson's New Verse in 1936, commented on in the text. Neruda then appeared in Dudley Fitts's Anthology of Contemporary Latin-American Poetry (Norfolk: New Directions, 1942), with H. R. Hays's version of ‘Walking around’ (also commented on in the text) and Fitts's of ‘Ritual of my legs’ as the first poems into American English. Neruda was also a translator himself, as noted, from his earliest days, starting with Baudelaire, Rilke, France and then on to William Blake's ‘Las hijas de Albion’ and ‘El viajero mental’ for Bergamín's magazine Cruz y Raya in 1934. He also translated Joyce's poems and Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet, and later, a book on Romanian poets.
