Morphology

unlost = lost (semi-transparent) = un + lost

The negation is clear, but the specialised moral/spiritual sense ('saved' or 'guided') may not be inferable by average learners.

Etymology

Unlost is a helpful way to read un- 'not' plus lost 'without direction' or 'without purpose'. So unlost means 'found' or 'saved' in a moral or spiritual way, when someone feels guided again.
