These are Thy servants, |
O my Lord, |
who for love of Thee have abandoned |
their homes, |
and sustained the tribulations decreed by Thee in Thy path. |
I |
swear by Thy glory! |
Every time any one of them testifieth before Thee to |
his evil doings, |
shame covereth my face, |
for they are Thy servants who |
have tasted of the cup of woe in Thy Cause, |
who have quaffed from the |
chalice of adversity when the light of Thy countenance was lifted upon |
them, |
and who were so vexed by trials that peace was utterly denied them |
within the precincts of Thy court. |
The power of Thy might beareth me witness! |
My heart hath melted by reason |
of my love for them that are dear to Thee, |
and my soul is laden with |
anguish for the sorrows which have afflicted them at the revelation of Thy |
Cause and the appearance of the billowing oceans of Thy grace and favors. |
The sighs they uttered, |
O my Lord, |
have caused my sighs to ascend towards |
Thee, |
and the burning of their hearts hath consumed mine own heart within |
me. |
I beseech Thee, |
O Thou Who art the Lord of all being and the Enlightener |
of all things visible and invisible, |
to grant that every one of them may |
become an ensign of Thy guidance among Thy servants, |
and a revelation of |
the splendors of the Day-Star of Thy loving-kindness amidst Thy creatures. |
Thou hast, |
O my God, |
chosen them to love Thee, |
and to stand before the |
throne of Thy majesty. |
No other station hath excelled the station to which |
Thou hast called them. |
How many the nights, |
O my God, |
when sleep failed to |
overtake them because of their remembrance of Thee, |
and how numerous the |
days which they spent in lamentation over the things that have befallen |
Thee at the hands of Thine enemies! |
I entreat Thee, |
O Thou Who art the |
Ruler of rulers, |
and the Uplifter of the downtrodden, |
to aid them so to |
assist Thy Cause and exalt Thy word that through them Thy praise may be |
shed abroad amidst Thy creatures, |
and Thy virtues recounted throughout Thy |
realm. |
Thou art, |
verily, |
the Almighty, |
the Most Exalted, |
the |
Ever-Forgiving, |
the Most Generous. |
Praised be Thou, |
O Lord my God! |
This is Thy servant whom Thou hast in the |
kingdom of Thy names called by Thine own name, |
and whom Thou hast reared |
under the wings of Thy grace and favors. |
Thou seest him, |
therefore, |
hastening in the direction of Thy gifts, |
and rushing forth towards Thee |
seeking after Thy bounty. |
Attire him, |
O my God, |
with the mantle of Thy |
favor and the robe of Thy munificence and generosity, |
that all created |
things may perceive from him the sweet smell of the raiment of Thy love. |
Adorn, |
then, |
his head with the crown of Thy remembrance, |
in such wise that |
his fame may be noised abroad among Thy servants as one who loveth Thee |
and cleaveth steadfastly to Thy Cause. |
Assist him, |
