Hello!
Your questions is incomplete. The complete poem is:
An Arab Shepherd Is Searching For His Goat On Mount Zion
An Arab shepherd is searching for his goat on Mount Zion / and on the opposite hill I am searching for my little boy. / An Arab shepherd and a Jewish father / both in their temporary failure. / Our two voices met above / the Sultan’s Pool in the valley between us. / Neither of us wants the boy or the goat / to get caught in the wheels / of the “Chad Gadya” machine. / Afterward we found them among the bushes, / and our voices came back inside us / laughing and crying. / Searching for a goat or for a child has always been / the beginning of a new religion in these mountains.

The whole text has cultural references. Mount Zion, by its use and historical significance, the "sultan's swimming pool", being a specific reference of an Arab culture and the Chad Gaya, for being a musical style. The Arab shepherd, however, enters more into the perspective of common sense, and could be seen, from an alternative perspective, as an emptiness of cultural meaning.

Explanation:
In The Last Truck Ride, by Ruskin Bond, we learn that the potato crop in Nathu´s village had failed, leaving his family unable to buy anything they couldn´t grow despite the summer drought, which was only onions and artichokes. So Nathu left his village to look for a job in the town in the valley. Once there, someone sent him to the limestone depot, where, despite not being able to get a job at the quarries, he did get hired by Pritam Singh to clean and look after his truck.
The statement that describes a gothic element in the excerpt "The Lady Maid's Bell" that would show a social attitute at that the time of the Wharton's was "Some ladies are very stiff about having their servants’ friends in the house overnight."
