O! My God. Poem by Arfa Kalera

You are Merciful
You forgive our faults and flaws
And You forgive us all,
You are Omnipresent and Omniscient,
You watch us all and all our deeds
Though we perform or commit.

In the sunlight or darkness at night,
Nothing goes hidden from Your eyes,
Or unheard from Your hearing,
You are who accepts our penance
When we are penitent,
Just listen to me and my prayer,
I move in the world
Surrounded by dark,
All paths are blurred,
Show me the right one'
Which is straight too,
And trodden by the men of elegance,
Whom you blessed bounteously,
With whom you are pleased.

Guide me the route which may bring me
To the door of heaven, for I am scared
Lest my ignorance should drift me
To the region of hell, the darkest well.
