He Promised he’d return
He promised he’d return tomorrow.
And I wrote everywhere on my floor:
“Tomorrow.”
The morning broke, when they all asked:
Now tell us, when will your “Tomorrow” come?
Tomorrow, Tomorrow, where are you?
I cried and cried, but my Tomorrow never returned!
Vidyapati says: O listen, dear!
Your Tomorrow became a today
with other women.
