FORGIVENESS, by AL-JAZIRI First Line: When abu amir pardoned me Last Line: Admits their souls to paradise. | |||
When Abu Amir pardoned me I marvelled at his clemency, Yet realised that it must soon Be followed by a greater boon. For similarly Allah, when He overlooks the sins of men To crown His bounty, in a trice Admits their souls to Paradise. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...LITANY by ROBERT GRANT (1785-1838) BIRDS by NESTA HIGGINSON SKRINE WASHINGTON'S MONUMENT, FEBRUARY, 1885 by WALT WHITMAN IN AN ALBUM by JOHANNA AMBROSIUS ETERNITY by ANNA LETITIA BARBAULD RAIN ON FALL NIGHTS by MILDRED TELFORD BARNWELL |
