Analysis of Timely redeem!

Ishtiyaq 1964 (Karari)



Err one may, in innocence,
But none must, in ignorance.
Inadvertent; forgiven is sin,
Intentional; none’s forgiven.

Until sincerest redemption,
No exemption, no expiation.
Ego, What if I? Arrogance,
Lock redemption in defiance.

‘Worldly’ indulge in emption,
‘Death’ offers none an option.
‘Except’ eviction, isolation.
Redeem prior to Resurrection.

To eternally reign supreme,
‘Hereafter,’ timely redeem!

About this poem

Often people err in innocence yet are unaware that they are in err. My poem is a timely reminder that it is best to 'Timely Redeem.'
