to ordain for them the good of this world and of the world to |
come. |
Write down for them, |
moreover, |
what none of Thy creatures hath |
discovered, |
and number them with those who have circled round Thee, |
and |
who move about Thy throne in every world of Thy worlds. |
Thou, |
truly, |
art the Almighty, |
the All-Knowing, |
the All-Informed. |
Praised be Thou, |
O my God, |
that Thou hast ordained Naw-Rúz as a festival |
unto those who have observed the fast for love of Thee and abstained from |
all that is abhorrent unto Thee. |
Grant, |
O my Lord, |
that the fire of Thy |
love and the heat produced by the fast enjoined by Thee may inflame them |
in Thy Cause, |
and make them to be occupied with Thy praise and with |
remembrance of Thee. |
Since Thou hast adorned them, |
O my Lord, |
with the ornament of the fast |
prescribed by Thee, |
do Thou adorn them also with the ornament of Thine |
acceptance, |
through Thy grace and bountiful favor. |
For the doings of men |
are all dependent upon Thy good-pleasure, |
and are conditioned by Thy |
behest. |
Shouldst Thou regard him who hath broken the fast as one who hath |
observed it, |
such a man would be reckoned among them who from eternity had |
been keeping the fast. |
And shouldst Thou decree that he who hath observed |
the fast hath broken it, |
that person would be numbered with such as have |
caused the Robe of Thy Revelation to be stained with dust, |
and been far |
removed from the crystal waters of this living Fountain. |
Thou art He through Whom the ensign "Praiseworthy art Thou in Thy works" |
hath been lifted up, |
and the standard "Obeyed art Thou in Thy behest" hath |
been unfurled. |
Make known this Thy station, |
O my God, |
unto Thy servants, |
that they may be made aware that the excellence of all things is dependent |
upon Thy bidding and Thy word, |
and the virtue of every act is conditioned |
by Thy leave and the good-pleasure of Thy will, |
and may recognize that the |
reins of men's doings are within the grasp of Thine acceptance and Thy |
commandment. |
Make this known unto them, |
that nothing whatsoever may shut |
them out from Thy Beauty, |
in these days whereon the Christ exclaimeth: |
"All dominion is Thine, |
O Thou the Begetter of the Spirit (Jesus)"; |
and |
Thy Friend (Muhammad) crieth out: |
"Glory be to Thee, |
O Thou the |
Best-Beloved, |
for that Thou hast uncovered Thy Beauty, |
and written down |
for Thy chosen ones what will cause them to attain unto the seat of the |
revelation of Thy Most Great Name, |
through which all the peoples have |
lamented except such as have detached themselves from all else except |
Thee, |
and set themselves towards Him Who is the Revealer of Thyself and |
the Manifestation of Thine attributes. |
" |
He Who is Thy Branch and all Thy company, |
