Glorified art Thou, |
O Lord my God! |
Thou art He the fire of Whose love hath |
set ablaze the hearts of them who have recognized Thy unity, |
and the |
splendors of Whose countenance have illuminated the faces of such as have |
drawn nigh unto Thy court. |
How plenteous, |
O my God, |
is the stream of Thy |
knowledge! |
How sweet, |
O my Beloved, |
is the injury which, |
in my love for |
Thee, |
and for the sake of Thy pleasure, |
I suffer from the darts of the |
wicked doers! |
How pleasing are the wounds which, |
in Thy path and in order |
to proclaim Thy Faith, |
I sustain from the swords of the infidels! |
I beseech Thee, |
by Thy name through which Thou turnest restlessness into |
tranquillity, |
fear into confidence, |
weakness into strength, |
and abasement |
into glory, |
that Thou of Thy grace wilt aid me and Thy servants to exalt |
Thy name, |
to deliver Thy Message, |
and to proclaim Thy Cause, |
in such wise |
that we may remain unmoved by either the assaults of the transgressors or |
the wrath of the infidels, |
O Thou Who art my Well-Beloved! |
I am, |
O my Lord, |
Thy handmaiden, |
who hath hearkened to Thy call, |
and |
hastened unto Thee, |
fleeing from herself and resting her heart upon Thee. |
I implore Thee, |
O my Lord, |
by Thy name out of which all the treasures of |
the earth were brought forth, |
to shield me from the hints of such as have |
disbelieved in Thee and repudiated Thy truth. |
Powerful art Thou to do what Thou pleasest. |
Thou art, |
verily, |
the |
All-Knowing, |
the All-Wise. |
All praise be to Thee, |
O Lord, |
my God! |
How mysterious the Fire which Thou |
hast enkindled within my heart! |
My very limbs testify to the intensity of |
its heat, |
and evince the consuming power of its flame. |
Should my bodily |
tongue ever attempt to describe Thee as the One Whose strength hath ever |
excelled the strength of the most mighty amongst men, |
the tongue of my |
heart would address me, |
saying: |
"These are but words which can only be |
adequate to such things as are of the same likeness and nature as |
themselves. |
But He, |
of a truth, |
is infinitely exalted above the mention of |
all His creatures. |
" |
The power of Thy might beareth me witness, |
O my Well-Beloved! |
Every limb |
of my body, |
Subsets and Splits
