I bear
witness that Thou art to be praised in Thy doings,
and to be obeyed in Thy
behests,
and to remain unconstrained in Thy bidding.
Thou seest,
O my God,
how my spirit hath been stirred up within my limbs
and members,
in its longing to worship Thee,
and in its yearning to
remember Thee and extol Thee;
how it testifieth to that whereunto the
Tongue of Thy Commandment hath testified in the kingdom of Thine utterance
and the heaven of Thy knowledge.
I love,
in this state,
O my Lord,
to beg
of Thee all that is with Thee,
that I may demonstrate my poverty,
and
magnify Thy bounty and Thy riches,
and may declare my powerlessness,
and
manifest Thy power and Thy might.
There is no God but Thee,
the Almighty,
the All-Bountiful.
There is no God but Thee,
the Ordainer,
both in the beginning and in the
end.
O God,
my God!
Thy forgiveness hath emboldened me,
and Thy mercy hath
strengthened me,
and Thy call hath awakened me,
and Thy grace hath raised
me up and led me unto Thee.
Who,
otherwise,
am I that I should dare to
stand at the gate of the city of Thy nearness,
or set my face toward the
lights that are shining from the heaven of Thy will?
Thou seest,
O my
Lord,
this wretched creature knocking at the door of Thy grace,
and this
evanescent soul seeking the river of everlasting life from the hands of
Thy bounty.
Thine is the command at all times,
O Thou Who art the Lord of
all names;
and mine is resignation and willing submission to Thy will,
O
Creator of the heavens!
Greater is God than every great one!
Too high art Thou for the praise of those who are nigh unto Thee to ascend
unto the heaven of Thy nearness,
or for the birds of the hearts of them
who are devoted to Thee to attain to the door of Thy gate.
I testify that
Thou hast been sanctified above all attributes and holy above all names.
No God is there but Thee,
the Most Exalted,
the All-Glorious.
I testify unto that whereunto have testified all created things,
and the
Concourse on high,
and the inmates of the all-highest Paradise,
and beyond
