Where Did He Go? Poem by Dev Anand

Where did he go?

I stabbed him
at a moment, he least thought.
I was happy and left him in darkness.

In the darkness, one passed by
listened to his dying cries,
took him to the hospital.

He recovered.
Police questioned.
He never revealed my name.
Simply said "I do not know".

All these days I sit before the holy shrine.
Cry in shame weeping penitent tears.

One evening I knelt in prayer.
In a tearful moment I lifted up my eyes
and saw him standing.

Bitter are my tears.
My heart cried to the depths,
wanted to fall on his feet.

I turned, but he already left.

Where did he go?
Tell me dear angels
Where did he go?
