P. 71
The Children of Two Gods You howled and cried and I wept too
You were hit on the head
And as your wound profusely bled,
Something broke inside me too
Hope this letter finds you and your family And as I daily pass by the same tree and the fields
In good health, and happiness too I still see you sowing seeds
I just wanted to tell I just wish our God were one
That now I don't love you... Then it would be such great fun
But we were two different people
Yes, at times, I do go to the old banyan tree With different Gods too
And very softly sing the same melody So I just wanted to tell
That we used to sing together That now I don't love you...
But now it doesn't matter,
It's been decades two And if you find this letter a little wet
And I just wanted to tell They are the drops of my sweat
That now I don't love you... Don't think they are my tears
I am not living with your memories dear
But at times I watch the same train from the fields It's just that I passed by your old house today
That we used to watch together while you sowed the seeds That was painted new
But now I don't wave at the passengers as the train passes by So I thought of writing a letter...just to tell...
I have grey hair on my temples and I do feel shy That now I don't love you...
Sometimes I run along the train and get breathless too
But I just wanted to tell
That now I don't love you...
At times I sit alone on the stairs of the old Chapel
Where you first saw me, when you came to pray in the nearby temple
And sometimes I go inside the Chapel and pray for you ~ Harinder Cheema ~
But I just wanted to tell
That now I don't love you...
Your God didn't like me
My God didn't like you
That is what our elders said
