God – a poem by V P Singh
There have been various poems on God. One of them was written by the former Indian Prime Minister, V P Singh. While the painter in V P Singh has been recognized, the poet in him has escaped public attention. V P Singh, who is a fairly controversial figure in Indian politics due to his decision to implement the Mandal Commission agitation has a website dedicated to him where some of his poems can be found.
I have been trying to find a poem titled Bhagwan (God). I seem to have lost it, but I am now trying a translation of the original (without having the original with me). In case anyone has the original please do send it to me, so that I can try a better translation.
God
God is everywhere,
So whenever I wish, I clench him in my fist.
You can also do the same.
Between the two, whose God is stronger
depends on whose fist is stronger.
