Requiem

a poem by Martin Lings

Could these, and these, and these be wrong,
And these, and these? Could they be wrong,
And ye be right, ye right alone,
Sects that pray not for departed souls?
Shalt thou, and thou, and thou the gates
Enter of Paradise, only for being
Not bad enough to burn in Hell?
