Thou
art He before the revelations of Whose omnipotence the quintessence of
power hath trembled.
No God is there but Thee,
the Almighty,
the All-Subduing,
the
Unconditioned.
How can I choose to sleep,
O God,
my God,
when the eyes of them that long
for Thee are wakeful because of their separation from Thee;
and how can I
lie down to rest whilst the souls of Thy lovers are sore vexed in their
remoteness from Thy presence?
I have committed,
O my Lord,
my spirit and my entire being into the right
hand of Thy might and Thy protection,
and I lay my head on my pillow
through Thy power,
and lift it up according to Thy will and Thy
good-pleasure.
Thou art,
in truth,
the Preserver,
the Keeper,
the
Almighty,
the Most Powerful.
By Thy might!
I ask not,
whether sleeping or waking,
but that which Thou
dost desire.
I am Thy servant and in Thy hands.
Do Thou graciously aid me
to do what will shed forth the fragrance of Thy good pleasure.
This,
truly,
is my hope and the hope of them that enjoy near access to Thee.
Praised be Thou,
O Lord of the worlds!
My God,
my Adored One,
my King,
my Desire!
What tongue can voice my thanks
to Thee?
I was heedless,
Thou didst awaken me.
I had turned back from
Thee,
Thou didst graciously aid me to turn towards Thee.
I was as one
dead,
Thou didst quicken me with the water of life.
I was withered,
Thou
didst revive me with the heavenly stream of Thine utterance which hath
flowed forth from the Pen of the All-Merciful.
O Divine Providence!
All existence is begotten by Thy bounty;
deprive it
not of the waters of Thy generosity,
neither do Thou withhold it from the
ocean of Thy mercy.
I beseech Thee to aid and assist me at all times and
under all conditions,
and seek from the heaven of Thy grace Thine ancient
favor.
Thou art,
in truth,
the Lord of bounty,
and the Sovereign of the
kingdom of eternity.
