वहति न पुरः कश्चित्पश्चान्न कोऽप्यनुयाति मां
न च नवपदक्षुण्णो मार्गः कथं न्वहमेककः ।
भवतु विदितं पूर्वव्यूढोऽधुना खिलतां गतः
स खलु बहलो वामः पन्था मया स्फुटमुर्जितः ॥
हरिणीवृत्तम् (नसमरसलग)
Nobody leads in front, and nobody follows behind me.
Nor have fresh footsteps left their mark on the road.
Can it be that I’m alone?
So be it. I know.
Once expansive, now empty:
that, it seems, is the crowded, crooked path
that I’ve left for good.
