Am I Not Your Lord? Poem by Mohammad Younus

Am I not your lord? '
You asked at that time...
Then, I humbly told You, 'yes' - You are!
It looks dramatic but it is...
My memory of having made the promise faded...
...with the days that followed the covenant.

I forgot my covenant, ...
...but You reminded me my primordial covenant;
Thus, you have resurrected me from the dead...
...to let me live to my promise with you;
it's a golden chance for me, so I must stop...
...pursuing meaningless worldly temptations.

In the meantime I must try to live a godly life, ...
...as my creator wanted me to be;
Now, I will stand before the Judge...
...on the Judgement Day, and ask my lord,
'Do you still have to judge me, ...
...after I honestly said 'yes' to your question...
...as long as I was alive in the world? '
