or to extol Thee, |
and cried with |
such a bitter cry that every mother in her bereavement was bewildered at |
me, |
and forgot her own anguish and the sighs she had uttered. |
I implore Thee, |
O my Lord, |
by Thine Ark, |
through which the potency of Thy |
will was manifested and the energizing influences of Thy purpose were |
revealed, |
and which saileth on both land and sea through the power of Thy |
might, |
not to seize me in my mighty sins and great trespasses. |
I swear by |
Thy glory! |
The waters of Thy forgiveness and Thy mercy have emboldened me, |
as hath Thy dealing, |
in bygone ages, |
with the sincere among Thy chosen |
ones, |
and with such of Thy Messengers as have proclaimed Thy oneness. |
I am well aware, |
O my Lord, |
that I have been so carried away by the clear |
tokens of Thy loving-kindness, |
and so completely inebriated with the wine |
of Thine utterance, |
that whatever I behold I readily discover that it |
maketh Thee known unto me, |
and it remindeth me of Thy signs, |
and of Thy |
tokens, |
and of Thy testimonies. |
By Thy glory! |
Every time I lift up mine |
eyes unto Thy heaven, |
I call to mind Thy highness and Thy loftiness, |
and |
Thine incomparable glory and greatness; |
and every time I turn my gaze to |
Thine earth, |
I am made to recognize the evidences of Thy power and the |
tokens of Thy bounty. |
And when I behold the sea, |
I find that it speaketh |
to me of Thy majesty, |
and of the potency of Thy might, |
and of Thy |
sovereignty and Thy grandeur. |
And at whatever time I contemplate the |
mountains, |
I am led to discover the ensigns of Thy victory and the |
standards of Thine omnipotence. |
I swear by Thy might, |
O Thou in Whose grasp are the reins of all mankind, |
and the destinies of the nations! |
I am so inflamed by my love for Thee, |
and so inebriated with the wine of Thy oneness, |
that I can hear from the |
whisper of the winds the sound of Thy glorification and praise, |
and can |
recognize in the murmur of the waters the voice that proclaimeth Thy |
virtues and Thine attributes, |
and can apprehend from the rustling of the |
leaves the mysteries that have been irrevocably ordained by Thee in Thy |
realm. |
Glorified art Thou, |
O God of all names and Creator of the heavens! |
I |
render Thee thanks that Thou hast made known unto Thy servants this Day |
whereon the river that is life indeed hath flowed forth from the fingers |
of Thy bounty, |
and the springtime of Thy revelation and Thy presence hath |
appeared through Thy manifestation unto all who are in Thy heaven and all |
who are on Thy earth. |
This is the Day, |
O my Lord, |
whose brightness Thou hast exalted above the |
brightness of the sun and the splendors thereof. |
I testify that the light |
it sheddeth proceedeth out of the glory of the light of Thy countenance, |
and is begotten by the radiance of the morn of Thy Revelation. |
This is the |
Day whereon the hopeless have been clothed with the raiment of confidence, |
