Invictus by William Ernest Henley is an inspirational poem. This poem depicts the poet’s attempt to motivate himself when there is no hope at all. When the poet writes this poem he has already lost one of his legs. So, in such a situation of mental and physical agony, the poet tries to lift up his courage.

In the very beginning of the poem, the poet says that he wants to thank God. In fact, he admits that his life has no ray of hope. Rather his future seems to be as dark as a pit. But then also he is grateful to God for his ‘unconquerable soul’. He says that no pain can be able to curve his soul.

Out of the night that covers me,

Black as the pit from pole to pole,

I thank whatever gods may be

For my unconquerable soul. (Invictus)

Eventually, he claims that whenever he fell into some difficulty he always remained unbeatable. However, situations have tried to destroy him, he always fights back with courage. In fact, he agrees that sometimes difficulties have made him bleed and suffer. But he never let himself to bow before them and cry out of fear.
