from Thy most effulgent Beauty.
I swear by Thy glory!
Such are the
troubles that vex me,
that no pen in the entire creation can either reckon
or describe them.
I implore Thee,
O Thou Who art the King of names and the Creator of earth
and heaven,
so to assist me by Thy strengthening grace that nothing
whatsoever will have the power to hinder me from remembering Thee,
or
celebrating Thy praise,
or to keep me back from observing what Thou hast
prescribed unto me in Thy Tablets,
that I may so arise to serve Thee that
with bared head I will hasten forth from my habitation,
cry out in Thy
name amidst Thy creatures,
and proclaim Thy virtues among Thy servants.
Having accomplished what Thou hadst decreed,
and delivered the thing Thou
hadst written down,
the wicked doers among Thy people would,
then,
compass
me about and would do with me in Thy path as would please them.
In the love I bear to Thee,
O my Lord,
my heart longeth for Thee with a
longing such as no heart hath known.
Here am I with my body between Thy
hands,
and my spirit before Thy face.
Do with them as it may please Thee,
for the exaltation of Thy word,
and the revelation of what hath been
enshrined within the treasuries of Thy knowledge.
Potent art Thou to do what Thou willest,
and able to ordain what Thou
pleasest.
Lauded be Thy name,
O my God!
I can discover no one in Thy realm who can
befittingly turn unto Thee,
or is able to adequately hearken unto what
hath gone out of the mouth of Thy will.
I beseech Thee,
therefore,
O Thou
Who art the Possessor of the entire creation and the King of the realm of
Thine invention,
graciously to aid Thy creatures to accomplish that which
is pleasing and acceptable unto Thee,
that they may arise to serve Thy
Cause amidst Thy creatures,
and to speak forth Thy praise before all who
are in heaven and on earth.
Thou art He,
O my Lord,
Whose bounty hath surpassed all things,
and Whose
power hath transcended all things,
and Whose mercy hath encompassed all
things.
Look,
then,
upon Thy people with the eyes of Thy tender mercies,
and leave them not to themselves and to their corrupt desires in Thy days.
How farsoever they may have strayed from Thee,
and however grievously they
have turned back from Thy face,
yet Thou,
in Thine essence,
art the
All-Bountiful,
and,
in Thine inmost spirit,
art the Most Merciful.
Deal
with them according to the unrevealed tokens of Thy bounty and Thy gifts.
