“O thou fragrant rose blooming in the Garden of Guidance!…” |
Thank thou God for that He hath removed from off
thine eyes the covering, made thee to see the signs of
the Kingdom of thy Lord, the supreme, filled for thee
the cup of bounty and gave thee to drink the pure wine
621
of fidelity which He hath promised to the sincere in the
holy Books and Tablets.

O thou my dear! The cup of knowledge is overflowing;
blessed are they who partake in draughts! The
fountain of life is issuing forth; blessed are they who
drink! The doors of the Kingdom are opened; O what
good news to those who advance! The garden of
paradise is drawn near; O what a pleasure to those who
enter! The dove of holiness is cooing; O what a happiness
to those who hear! The gates of heaven are open;
blessed are they who see! The hosts of angels are
standing in battle order; what a joy to those who gain
the victory! The trumpet of life is sounding; how good
it is to those who are awake!
