He who repents of having sinned is almost innocent.

Hold thou her sinless who has sinned for thee

I know that men are so eager to be one among the stars.
I feel that damaged earth will never let men go off hand.

For all this they sinned still, and believed not for his wondrous works.

And they cried unto the LORD, and said, We have sinned, because we have forsaken the LORD, and have served Baalim and Ashtaroth: but now deliver us out of the hand of our enemies, and we will serve thee.

And whoever repents and does good, he surely turns to Allah a (goodly) turning.
