Prayer

In his poem "Prayer," Faiz is literally praying for those whom have given up on hope. He is praying for those who have forgotten the "custom of prayer" or who do not remember "any god." He prays that their paths are luminated and for their eyes to a wonderful tomorrow. For those whom have given up and submitted to the misfortunes of life Faiz seeks to remind them through prayer that God will be their light at the end of the tunnel. "May it light some candle in their nights." He is calling for them to not give up on life or on themselves, but to put there trust in God. He will be their salvation.
