You Have To Return To The Door Poem by Mohammad Younus

You have to return to the door,
From which you came here,
The exit door of the paradise!
The entrance door of the world!
So find that door -
If you want to come out of your wilderness,
Or you will waste your life,
Going from one door to other.
Think why were you shown the exit door,
Repent and supplicate to your lord,
As your parents - Adam and Eve - did,
Our lord! We have wronged ourselves, ¹
Know the words from Allah,
So that you earn the paradise back.

1. رَبَّنَا ظَلَمْنَا أَنفُسَنَا وَإِن لَّمْ تَغْفِرْ لَنَا وَتَرْحَمْنَا لَنَكُونَنَّ مِنَ الْخَاسِرِينَ
Our Lord, we have wronged ourselves,
and if You do not forgive us and have mercy upon us,
we will surely be among the losers.
