Victor Hugo (75) "The Miserable' (Trust In God) Poem by Freeyad Ibrahim

By Freeyad Ibrahim

We must never fear robbers or murderers
It is ourselves we have to fear
Prejudice is the real robber
Vice is the real murderer
Why should we be troubled
by a threat to our person
or to our pocket?
What we have to beware of
is the threat to our souls.
The priest must never speak
to protect himself against other men
Men do as God allows them to do
