"O my God! O my God! We are servants who..."
| |
1 |
O my God! O my God! We are servants who
have sincerely turned our faces unto Thy grand face,
severed ourselves from all else save Thee in this great
day and are assembled together in this glorious meeting,
of one accord and desire, and unanimous in thought
to promulgate Thy Word amid Thy creatures.
| |
2 |
O my Lord! O my Lord! Suffer us to be signs of
guidance, standards of Thy manifest Religion throughout
the world, servants of Thy Great Covenant - O our
exalted Lord! - appearances of Thy oneness in Thy
Kingdom, the El-Abha, and stars which dawn forth
unto all regions.
| |
3 |
O Lord! Make us as seas rolling with the waves of
Thy great abundance, rivers flowing from the mountains
of Thy glorious Kingdom, pure fruits on the tree
of Thy illustrious Cause, plants refreshed and moved
by the breeze of Thy gift in Thy wonderful vineyard.
| |
4 |
O Lord! Cause our souls to depend upon the signs
of Thy Oneness, our hearts to be dilated with the bounties
of Thy Singleness, so that we may become united
as are ripples on a waving sea; become harmonized as
are the rays which shine forth from a brilliant light;
so that our thoughts, opinions and feelings become as
one reality from which the spirit of accord may be
diffused throughout all regions.

Verily Thou art the Beneficent, the Bestower! Verily
Thou art the Giver, the Mighty, the Loving, the
Merciful!
