assist them whose hopes are set on Thee to enter into the tabernacle of |
Thy transcendent favor and mercy. |
Naked am I, |
O my God! |
Clothe me with the robe of Thy tender mercies. |
I am |
sore athirst; |
give me to drink of the oceans of Thy bountiful favor. |
I am |
a stranger; |
draw me nearer unto the source of Thy gifts. |
I am sick; |
sprinkle upon me the healing waters of Thy grace. |
I am a captive; |
rid me |
of my bondage, |
by the power of Thy might and through the force of Thy |
will, |
that I may soar on the wings of detachment towards the loftiest |
summits of Thy creation. |
Thou, |
verily, |
doest what Thou choosest. |
There is |
no God but Thee, |
the Help in Peril, |
the All-Glorious, |
the Unconstrained. |
Glorified art Thou, |
O my God! |
Thou knowest that my sole aim in revealing |
Thy Cause hath been to reveal Thee and not my self, |
and to manifest Thy |
glory rather than my glory. |
In Thy path, |
and to attain Thy pleasure, |
I |
have scorned rest, |
joy, |
delight. |
At all times and under all conditions my |
gaze hath been fixed on Thy precepts, |
and mine eyes bent upon the things |
Thou hast bidden me observe in Thy Tablets. |
I have wakened every morning |
to the light of Thy praise and Thy remembrance, |
and reached every evening |
inhaling the fragrances of Thy mercy. |
And when the entire creation was stirred up, |
and the whole earth was |
convulsed, |
and the sweet savors of Thy name, |
the All-Praised, |
had almost |
ceased to breathe over Thy realms, |
and the winds of Thy mercy had |
well-nigh been stilled throughout Thy dominions, |
Thou didst, |
through the |
power of Thy might, |
raise me up among Thy servants, |
and bid me to show |
forth Thy sovereignty amidst Thy people. |
Thereupon I arose before all Thy |
creatures, |
strengthened by Thy help and Thy power, |
and summoned all the |
multitudes unto Thee, |
and announced unto all Thy servants Thy favors and |
Thy gifts, |
and invited them to turn towards this Ocean, |
every drop of the |
waters of which crieth out, |
proclaiming unto all that are in heaven and on |
earth that He is, |
in truth, |
the Fountain of all life, |
and the Quickener of |
the entire creation, |
and the Object of the adoration of all worlds, |
and |
the Best-Beloved of every understanding heart, |
and the Desire of all them |
that are nigh unto Thee. |
Though the fierce winds of the hatred of the wicked doers blew and beat on |
this Lamp, |
