mercy hath surpassed all created things, |
and Thy loving-kindness embraced |
the entire creation. |
Look upon them, |
I entreat Thee, |
with the eyes of Thy |
mercy. |
Thou art the Ever-Forgiving, |
the Most Compassionate. |
Do with them |
as beseemeth Thy glory, |
and Thy majesty, |
and Thy greatness, |
and Thy |
bounteousness and Thy grace. |
Deal not with them according to the |
limitations imposed upon them, |
or the manifold vicissitudes of their |
earthly life. |
Thou knowest, |
O my Lord, |
that I am but one of Thy servants. |
I have tasted |
of the sweetness of Thy speech, |
and acknowledged Thy unity and Thy |
singleness, |
and set my face towards the Source of Thy most excellent names |
and the Day-Spring of Thy transcendent attributes, |
and wished to be |
enabled by Thee to immerse myself beneath the ocean of Thy oneness and to |
be submerged by the mighty waters of Thy unity. |
Assist me, |
by Thy strengthening grace, |
O my Lord, |
to do what Thou didst |
will, |
and withhold not from me the things Thou dost possess. |
So enravish |
me with the wonders of Thine utterances that the noise and distraction of |
this world may be powerless to deter me from turning unto Thee, |
and may |
fail to shake my constancy in Thy Cause, |
or to distract my gaze from the |
horizon of Thy grace. |
Aid me, |
then, |
O my God, |
to do what pleaseth Thee, |
and to carry out Thy will. |
Write down for me, |
moreover, |
the good of this |
world and of the world which is to come, |
and ordain for me a seat of truth |
in Thy presence. |
Potent art Thou to do what Thou willest, |
and to rule as |
Thou pleasest. |
No God is there but Thee, |
the Inaccessible, |
the |
All-Glorious, |
the Most Great. |
All-praise to Thee, |
O Lord of the worlds and the Object of the adoration |
of the entire creation! |
Faded now is all that erstwhile flourished in the Paradise of Thy |
transcendent oneness, |
O my God! |
Where are the rain-giving clouds of Thy |
mercy? |
Shorn are the branches of the Tree of Thy unity of the vesture of |
Thy majesty and wisdom; |
where is the spring-time of Thy gifts and |
bounties? |
Motionless lies the Ark of Thy Cause on the sea of Thy creation; |
where are the winds of Thy grace and favors? |
Encompassed on every side is |
Thy Lamp by the tempests of discord blowing from every land; |
where is the |
globe of Thy graciousness and protection? |
Thou seest, |
O my God, |
