“O thou that mirror in which the Light of Guidance is printed!…” |
My dominion is my humility, my submissiveness, my
lowliness, my abasement, my supplication and my beseeching
unto God—this is that permanent reign which
no one is able to dispute, gainsay or usurp!

I beg God to cause thee to be one of the pillars of
this divine reign, that thou mayest abundantly partake
of this joy and gladness, and I invoke God that He
may register thy name in the published Tablet, in the
pages of the Kingdom of God. I beg God to cause thy
kinsmen (those who are near and dear to thee) to
attain that which thou hast attained, to drink from
that Cup wherefrom thou art exhilarated, to brighten
their eyes through that Light whereby thine eyes were
brightened and to cause them to hearken to that Call
whereby thine ears were delighted; and that He may
make you assemble under the shadow of the Tree of
the Testament, and cause you to be of the hosts of His
Kingdom, that ye may conquer the East of that region
as well as its West, through the sword of peace and
the weapons of love, union and agreement, and that He
may make thee to be a server in His blessed Olive Garden,
and in his El-Abha (i.e., Most Glorious) Paradise,
and in His Holy Garden of the Supreme Kingdom.
