Help Him, God (To M.) Poem by Jolanta Gradowicz

Help him, God. I beg you for support
For the lost soul at the sad moment.
Give him some consolation and comfort,
And don’t let him experience this torment.

Look at the human being with your favor,
And remove this burden from his heart.
His suffering – so great is the horror…
Please don’t be so long a way apart.

Help him, merciful God, all the while.
Don’t be insensitive to the poor creature.
He can’t notice any chance in his lifetime,
With immense fear he thinks of his future…

Help him to name things anew, rebuild his world,
And create a new order in his mind,
Console him with one gesture – one word,
God, he trusts you and loves you at heart.
