O God, Who art the Author of all Manifestations,
the Source of all Sources, the Fountainhead
of all Revelations, and the Wellspring of
all Lights! I testify that by Thy Name the heaven
of understanding hath been adorned, and the
ocean of utterance hath surged, and the dispensations
of Thy providence have been promulgated
unto the followers of all religions.

2 |
I beseech Thee so to enrich me as to dispense
with all save Thee, and be made independent of
anyone except Thyself. Rain down, then, upon
me out of the clouds of Thy bounty that which
shall profit me in every world of Thy worlds. Assist
me, then, through Thy strengthening grace,
so to serve Thy Cause amidst Thy servants that I
may show forth what will cause me to be remembered
as long as Thine own kingdom endureth
and Thy dominion will last.

3 |
This is Thy servant, O my Lord, who with his
whole being hath turned unto the horizon of Thy
bounty, and the ocean of Thy grace, and the heaven
of Thy gifts. Do with me then as becometh
Thy majesty, and Thy glory, and Thy bounteousness,
and Thy grace.
| |
4 |
Thou, in truth, art the God of strength and
power, Who art meet to answer them that pray
Thee. There is no God save Thee, the All-Knowing,
the All-Wise.
- Bahá'u'lláh
