Spoken by a male or a female?

I'm not sure, it's a sanskrit passage that was translated by Octavio Paz. The whole passage is:
"No one behind, no one ahead.
The path the ancients cleared has closed.
And the other path, everyone's path,
easy and wide, goes nowhere.
I am alone and find my way."

In Sanskrit, translation changes when it is addressed to male or female.

What if the passage is addressing everyone?

I have a similar question - I just need the word 'alone' feminine...
