I tried to look back
I see darkness
I wish to see light
Only darkness follow me
I heard a voice
A voice from far away
Piercing my ears
Someone murmuring to me
I wonder! I can't see anyone
My eyes go through every nook and corner
Only voice piercing my ears
Saying! Don't look back
Yes, don't look back
Voice is louder
Still, my eyes are in search of its source
Heard again! Don't look back
My eyes searched for my shadow
It disappeared in the darkness
Abruptly a gentle breeze patted me
Like giving life to lifeless one
Don't look back
Repeated sounds into my ears
Yes, it's my mind murmuring to me
Beats of my heart
Don't look back
Never to the past
I can see my face in the deep dark slightly
My inner mind is whispering
Vanishing past memory one by one
In the darkness behind
I realise! It's a boon
A real gift to forget past
Yes it's God's blessing
Disappearing past memories
In the way to future
Don't look back
Oh, Darkness! You swallow my past memory
I can't see my past images
You melt it in you
You follow me always as my companion
Don't look back
Look forward always
It's your way with bright light
Walk forward! Walk forward! Always walk forward
