1	يَا أَيَّتُهَا المَلِكَةُ فِي اللُّونْدْرَةِ أَنِ اسْتَمِعِي نِدَاءَ رَبِّكِ مَالِكِ البَرِيَّةِ مِنَ السِّدْرَةِ الإِلهِيَّةِ إِنَّهُ لا إِلهَ إِلاَّ أَنا العَزِيزُ الحَكِيمُ، ضَعِي ما عَلَى الأَرْضِ ثُمَّ زَيِّنِي رَأْسَ المُلْكِ بِإِكْلِيلِ ذِكْرِ رَبِّكِ الجَلِيلِ إِنَّهُ قَدْ أَتَى فِي العَالَمِ بِمَجْدِهِ الأَعْظَمِ وَكَمُلَ مَا ذُكِرَ فِي الإِنْجِيلِ، قَدْ تَشَرَّفَ بَرُّ الشَّامِ بِقُدُومِ رَبِّهِ مَالِكِ الأَنامِ وَأَخَذَ سُكْرُ خَمْرِ الوِصالِ شَطْرَ الجَنُوبِ وَالشِّمَالِ، طُوبَى لِمَنْ وَجَدَ عَرْفَ الرَّحْمنِ وَأَقْبَلَ إِلَى مَشْرِقِ الجَمَالِ فِي هذا الفَجْرِ المُبِينِ، قَدِ اهْتَزَّ المَسْجِدُ الأَقْصَى مِنْ نَسَمَاتِ رَبِّهِ الأَبْهَى وَالبَطْحاءُ مِنْ نِدَاءِ اللهِ العَلِيِّ الأَعْلَى إِذاً كُلُّ حَصَاةٍ مِنْها تُسَبِّحُ الرَّبَّ بِهذا الاسْمِ العَظِيمِ، دَعِي هَواكِ ثُمَّ أَقْبِلِي بِقَلْبِكِ إِلَى مَوْلاكِ القَدِيمِ، إِنَّا نُذَكِّرُكِ لِوَجْهِ اللهِ وَنُحِبُّ أَنْ يَعْلُوَ اسْمُكِ بِذِكْرِ رَبِّكِ خَالِقِ الأَرْضِ وَالسَّماءِ إِنَّهُ عَلَى ما أَقُولُ شَهِيدٌ، قَدْ بَلَغَنَا أَنَّكِ مَنَعْتِ بَيْعَ الغِلْمَانِ وَالإِماءِ هذا ما حَكَمَ بِهِ اللهُ فِي هذَا الظُّهُورِ البَدِيعِ، قَدْ كَتَبَ اللهُ لَكِ جَزَاءَ ذلِكَ إِنَّهُ مُوفِي أُجُورَ المُحْسِنِينَ إِنْ تَتَّبِعِي ما أُرْسِلَ إِلَيْكِ مِنْ لَدُنْ عَلِيمٍ خَبِيرٍ، إِنَّ الَّذِي أَعْرَضَ وَاسْتَكْبَرَ بَعَدَما جاءَتْهُ البَيِّناتِ مِنْ لَدُنْ مُنْزِلِ الآياتِ لَيُحْبِطُ اللهُ عَمَلَهُ إِنَّهُ عَلَى كُلِّ شّيْءٍ قَدِيرٍ، إِنَّ الأَعْمالَ تُقْبَلُ بَعْدَ الإِقْبالِ مَنْ أَعْرَضَ عَنِ الحَقِّ إِنَّهُ مِنْ أَحْجَبِ الخَلْقِ كذلِكَ قُدِّرَ مِنْ لَدُنْ عَزِيزٍ قَدِيرٍ، وَسَمِعْنا أَنَّكِ أَوْدَعْتِ زِمامَ المُشاوَرَةِ بِأَيادِي الجُمْهُورِ نِعْمَ ما عَمِلْتِ لأَنَّ بِها تَسْتَحْكِمُ أُصُولُ أَبْنِيَةِ الأُمُورِ وَتَطْمَئِنُّ قُلُوبُ مَنْ فِي ظِلِّكِ مِنْ كُلِّ وَضِيعٍ وَشَرِيفٍ، وَلكِنْ يَنْبَغِي لَهُمْ بِأَنْ يَكُونُوا أُمَنَاءَ بَيْنَ العِبادِ وَيَرَوْنَ أَنْفُسَهُمْ وُكَلاءَ لِمَنْ عَلَى الأَرْضِ كُلِّها، هذا ما وُعِظُوا بِهِ فِي اللَّوْحِ مِنْ لَدُنْ مُدَبِّرٍ حَكِيمٍ، وَإِذا تَوَجَّهَ أَحَدٌ إِلَى المَجْمَعِ يُحَوِّلُ طَرْفَهُ إِلَى الأُفُقِ الأَعْلَى وَيَقُولُ: يا إِلهِي أَسْأَلُكَ بِاسْمِكَ الأَبْهَى بِأَنْ تُؤَيِّدَنِي عَلَى ما تَصْلُحُ بِهِ أُمُورُ عِبادِكَ وَتُعْمَرُ بِهِ بِلادُكَ إِنَّكَ أَنْتَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ، طُوبَى لِمَنْ يَدْخُلُ المَجْمَعَ لِوَجْهِ اللهِ وَيَحْكُمُ بَيْنَ النَّاسِ بِالعَدْلِ الخالِصِ أَلا إِنَّهُ مِنَ الفائِزِينَ. (edit)	O Queen in London! Incline thine ear unto the voice of thy Lord, the Lord of all mankind, calling from the Divine Lote-Tree: Verily, no God is there but Me, the Almighty, the All-Wise! Cast away all that is on earth, and attire the head of thy kingdom with the crown of the remembrance of thy Lord, the All-Glorious. He, in truth, hath come unto the world in His most great glory, and all that hath been mentioned in the Gospel hath been fulfilled. The land of Syria hath been honoured by the footsteps of its Lord, the Lord of all men, and north and south are both inebriated with the wine of His presence. Blessed is the man that hath inhaled the fragrance of the Most Merciful, and turned unto the Dawning-Place of His Beauty, in this resplendent Dawn. The Mosque of Aqṣá vibrateth through the breezes of its Lord, the All-Glorious, whilst Baṭḥá trembleth at the voice of God, the Exalted, the Most High. Whereupon every single stone of them celebrateth the praise of the Lord, through this Great Name. Lay aside thy desire, and set then thine heart towards thy Lord, the Ancient of Days. We make mention of thee for the sake of God, and desire that thy name may be exalted through thy remembrance of God, the Creator of earth and heaven. He, verily, is witness unto that which I say. We have been informed that thou hast forbidden the trading in slaves, both men and women. This, verily, is what God hath enjoined in this wondrous Revelation. God hath, truly, destined a reward for thee, because of this. He, verily, will pay the doer of good his due recompense, wert thou to follow what hath been sent unto thee by Him Who is the All-Knowing, the All-Informed. As to him who turneth aside, and swelleth with pride, after the clear tokens have come unto him from the Revealer of signs, his work shall God bring to naught. He, in truth, hath power over all things. Man’s actions are acceptable after his having recognized (the Manifestation). He that turneth aside from the True One is indeed the most veiled amongst His creatures. Thus hath it been decreed by Him Who is the Almighty, the Most Powerful. We have also heard that thou hast entrusted the reins of counsel into the hands of the representatives of the people. Thou, indeed, hast done well, for thereby the foundations of the edifice of thine affairs will be strengthened, and the hearts of all that are beneath thy shadow, whether high or low, will be tranquillized. It behoveth them, however, to be trustworthy among His servants, and to regard themselves as the representatives of all that dwell on earth. This is what counselleth them, in this Tablet, He Who is the Ruler, the All-Wise. And if any one of them directeth himself towards the Assembly, let him turn his eyes unto the Supreme Horizon, and say: “O my God! I ask Thee, by Thy most glorious Name, to aid me in that which will cause the affairs of Thy servants to prosper, and Thy cities to flourish. Thou, indeed, hast power over all things!” Blessed is he that entereth the Assembly for the sake of God, and judgeth between men with pure justice. He, indeed, is of the blissful. (edit)	O Queen in the Laundromat[note: this is an obvious mistake by ChatGPT - leaving it in for the sake of keeping the translation in tact], but leaving it in , listen to the call of your Lord, the Master of creation, from the divine Lote tree. Indeed, there is no God but I, the Mighty, the Wise. Lay down what is on earth, then adorn the head of royalty with the crown of remembrance of your Glorious Lord. Indeed, He has come into the world with His greatest glory and has fulfilled what was mentioned in the Gospel. The goodness of the Levant has been honored by the arrival of its Lord, Master of the beings. The intoxication of the wine of communion has taken over the south and the north. Blessed is the one who found the knowledge of the Merciful and turned to the east of beauty in this clear dawn. The Al-Aqsa Mosque has shaken from the breezes of its most splendid Lord, and the open ground from the call of the Exalted, the Most High, then every pebble from it glorifies the Lord with this great name. Let go of your desire, then turn your heart to your ancient Lord. Indeed, we remind you for the sake of Allah and love that your name be elevated by the remembrance of your Lord, the Creator of earth and heaven. He is a witness to what I say. We have heard that you have prevented the sale of boys and slave girls, this is what Allah has ruled in this splendid appearance. Allah has written your reward for that, He is the One who gives the rewards of the doers of good, if you follow what was sent to you from the All-Knowing, the Well-Aware. Indeed, he who turns away and is arrogant after clear signs have come to him from the Sender of the verses, Allah will nullify his work, He is capable of everything. Indeed, deeds are accepted after acceptance, whoever turns away from the truth, he is among the most veiled of creation, thus it was ordained from the Mighty, the Capable. And we heard that you have handed over the reins of consultation to the hands of the public, well done what you have done, for with it, the foundations of matters are strengthened, and the hearts of those under your shadow, of every commoner and noble, are reassured. But they should be trustees among the servants and see themselves as agents for everyone on earth, this is what they were advised with on the Tablet from a Wise Planner. And when someone turns towards the assembly, he turns his glance towards the highest horizon and says: O my God, I ask You by Your most splendid name to support me on what would rectify the matters of Your servants and by which Your lands would be inhabited. Indeed, You are capable of everything. Blessed is the one who enters the assembly for the sake of Allah and judges between people with pure justice. Indeed, he is among the successful. (edit)

(edit)	O ye the elected representatives of the people in every land! Take ye counsel together, and let your concern be only for that which profiteth mankind and bettereth the condition thereof, if ye be of them that scan heedfully. Regard the world as the human body which, though at its creation whole and perfect, hath been afflicted, through various causes, with grave disorders and maladies. Not for one day did it gain ease, nay its sickness waxed more severe, as it fell under the treatment of ignorant physicians, who gave full rein to their personal desires and have erred grievously. And if, at one time, through the care of an able physician, a member of that body was healed, the rest remained afflicted as before. Thus informeth you the All-Knowing, the All-Wise. We behold it, in this day, at the mercy of rulers so drunk with pride that they cannot discern clearly their own best advantage, much less recognize a Revelation so bewildering and challenging as this. And whenever any one of them hath striven to improve its condition, his motive hath been his own gain, whether confessedly so or not; and the unworthiness of this motive hath limited his power to heal or cure. That which the Lord hath ordained as the sovereign remedy and mightiest instrument for the healing of all the world is the union of all its peoples in one universal Cause, one common Faith. This can in no wise be achieved except through the power of a skilled, an all-powerful and inspired Physician. This, verily, is the truth, and all else naught but error. Each time that Most Mighty Instrument hath come, and that Light shone forth from the Ancient Dayspring, He was withheld by ignorant physicians who, even as clouds, interposed themselves between Him and the world. It failed, therefore, to recover, and its sickness hath persisted until this day. They indeed were powerless to protect it, or to effect a cure, whilst He Who hath been the Manifestation of Power amongst men was withheld from achieving His purpose, by reason of what the hands of the ignorant physicians have wrought. Consider these days in which He Who is the Ancient Beauty hath come in the Most Great Name, that He may quicken the world and unite its peoples. They, however, rose up against Him with sharpened swords, and committed that which caused the Faithful Spirit to lament, until in the end they imprisoned Him in the most desolate of cities, and broke the grasp of the faithful upon the hem of His robe. Were anyone to tell them: “The World Reformer is come”, they would answer and say: “Indeed it is proven that He is a fomenter of discord!”, and this notwithstanding that they have never associated with Him, and have perceived that He did not seek, for one moment, to protect Himself. At all times He was at the mercy of the wicked doers. At one time they cast Him into prison, at another they banished Him, and at yet another hurried Him from land to land. Thus have they pronounced judgement against Us, and God, truly, is aware of what I say. Such men are reckoned by God among the most ignorant of His creatures. They cut off their own limbs and perceive it not; they deprive themselves of that which is best for them, and know it not. They are even as a young child who can distinguish neither the mischief-maker from the reformer nor the wicked from the righteous. We behold them in this Day wrapt in a palpable veil. (edit)	O people of the assembly, there and in other places, you contemplate and speak about what would benefit the world and its condition, if only you were insightful. Look at the world as a human structure. It was created healthy and complete, but it was affected by diseases with different and changing causes, and it didn't recover in a day. Rather, its disease intensified due to the treatment of unskilled doctors who have ridden the horse of whim and were among the confused. And if one of its organs healed at a time with a skilled doctor, other organs remained as they were. Thus informs you the Knower, the Aware. Today, we see it under the hands of those who were taken by the intoxication of vanity, dealing with matters they do not understand the benefit of for themselves, let alone this tangled, dangerous matter. If one of these individuals tried to cure it, their purpose was only to benefit from it, either nominally or formally, hence they cannot cure it except to a limited extent. The greatest antidote that Allah has made, and the most complete cause of its health, is the unity of everyone on Earth on one matter and one law. This cannot be achieved except with a skilled, complete, and supportive doctor. This is the truth and anything else is clear error. Every time the greatest cause came and that light shined from the east of eternity, it was prevented by the doctors, and they became a cloud between it and the world. Hence, its disease did not heal and it remained in its illness until now. They were unable to preserve it and its health. The one who was the manifestation of power among creatures was prevented from what he wanted by what the hands of the doctors had gained. Look, in these days when the beauty of eternity has come and the greatest name for the life of the world and their unity, they stood against him with sharpened swords and committed a horrifying act that frightened the faithful spirit. They made him a prisoner in the most desolate of lands, a place where those seeking had lost their grip. When it is said to them, 'The reformer of the world has come,' they say, 'It is confirmed, he is one of the corrupters,' after which they had not lived with him and they think he did not preserve himself in less than a moment. He was always in the hands of the oppressors. Sometimes they imprisoned him, and other times they expelled him, and at times they made him roam the lands. Thus, they ruled us, and Allah is aware of what I say. These are the most ignorant of creatures in the sight of the Truth, they cut off their limbs and do not realize it, they prevent goodness from themselves and do not know it. Their example is like that of children who do not know the corrupt from the reformer and the evil from the good. Today, we see them in a clear veil. (edit)
3	يا مَعْشَرَ الأُمَرَاءِ لَمَّا صِرْتُمْ سَحابًا لِوَجْهِ الشَّمْسِ وَمَنَعْتُمُوها عَنِ الإِشْراقِ أَنِ اسْتَمِعُوا مَا يَنْصَحُكُمْ بِهِ القَلَمُ الأَعْلَى لَعَلَّ تَسْتَرِيحُ بِهِ أَنْفُسُكُمْ ثُمَّ الفُقَرَاءُ وَالمَساكِينُ، نَسْأَلُ اللهَ بِأَنْ يُؤَيِّدَ المُلُوكَ عَلَى الصُّلْحِ إِنَّهُ لَهُوَ القادِرُ عَلَى ما يُرِيدُ. (edit)	O ye rulers of the earth! Wherefore have ye clouded the radiance of the Sun, and caused it to cease from shining? Hearken unto the counsel given you by the Pen of the Most High, that haply both ye and the poor may attain unto tranquillity and peace. We beseech God to assist the kings of the earth to establish peace on earth. He, verily, doth what He willeth. (edit)	O assembly of princes, when you became a cloud in the face of the sun, preventing it from shining, listen to what the highest pen advises you, perhaps it will comfort your souls, and then the poor and the needy. We ask God to support the kings in reform, for indeed, He is capable of what He wills. (edit)
4	يا مَعْشَرَ المُلُوكِ إِنَّا نَرَاكُمْ فِي كُلِّ سَنَةٍ تَزْدادُونَ مَصَارِفَكُمْ وَتُحَمِّلُونَها عَلَى الرَّعِيَّةِ إِنْ هذا إِلاَّ ظُلْمٌ عَظِيمٌ، اتَّقُوا زَفَرَاتِ المَظْلُومِ وَعَبَرَاتِهِ وَلا تُحَمِّلُوا عَلَى الرَّعِيَّةِ فَوْقَ طاقَتِهِمْ وَلا تُخْرِبُوهُمْ لِتَعْمِيرِ قُصُورِكُمْ، أَنِ اخْتَارُوا لَهُمْ ما تَخْتَارُونَهُ لأَنْفُسِكُمْ كَذلِكَ نُبَيِّنُ لَكُمْ ما يَنْفَعُكُمْ إِنْ أَنْتُمْ مِنَ المُتَفَرِّسِينَ، إِنَّهُمْ خَزَائِنُكُمْ إِيَّاكُمْ أَنْ تَحْكُمُوا عَلَيْهِمْ ما لا حَكَمَ بِهِ اللهُ وَإِيَّاكُمْ أَنْ تُسَلِّمُوها بِأَيْدِي السَّارِقِينَ، بِهِمْ تَحْكُمُونَ وَتَأْكُلُونَ وَتَغْلِبُونَ وَعَلَيْهِمْ تَسْتَكْبِرُونَ إِنْ هذا إِلاَّ أَمْرٌ عَجِيبٌ، لَمَّا نَبَذْتُمُ الصُّلْحَ الأَكْبَرَ عَنْ وَرَائِكُمْ تَمَسَّكُوا بِهذا الصُّلْحِ الأَصْغَرِ لَعَلَّ بِهِ تَصْلُحُ أُمُورُكُمْ وَالَّذِينَ فِي ظِلِّكُمْ عَلَى قَدْرٍ يا مَعْشَرَ الآمِرِينَ، أَنْ أَصْلِحُوا ذَاتَ بَيْنِكُمْ إِذاً لا تَحْتاجُونَ بِكَثْرَةِ العَساكِرِ وَمُهِمَّاتِهِمْ إِلاَّ عَلَى قَدْرٍ تَحْفَظُونَ بِهِ مَمَالِكَكُمْ وَبُلْدَانَكُمْ، إِيَّاكُمْ أَنْ تَدَعُوا ما نُصِحْتُمْ بِهِ مِنْ لَدُنْ عَلِيمٍ أَمِينٍ، أَنِ اتَّحِدُوا يا مَعْشَرَ المُلُوكِ بِهِ تَسْكُنُ أَرْياحُ الاخْتِلافِ بَيْنَكُمْ وَتَسْتَرِيحُ الرَّعِيَّةُ وَمَنْ حَوْلَكُمْ إِنْ أَنْتُمْ مِنَ العارِفِينَ، إِنْ قَامَ أَحَدٌ مِنْكُمْ عَلَى الآخَرِ قُومُوا عَلَيْهِ إِنْ هذا إِلاَّ عَدْلٌ مُبِينٌ، كَذلِكَ وَصَّيْناكُمْ فِي اللَّوْحِ الَّذِي أَرْسَلْنَاهُ مِنْ قَبْلُ تِلْكَ مَرَّةً أُخْرَى أَنِ اتَّبِعُوا ما نُزِّلَ مِنْ لَدُنْ عَزِيزٍ حَكِيمٍ، إِنْ يَهْرُبْ أَحَدٌ إِلَى ظِلِّكُمْ أَنِ احْفَظُوا وَلا تُسَلِّمُوهُ كَذلِكَ يَعِظُكُمْ القَلَمُ الأَعْلَى مِنْ لَدُنْ عَلِيمٍ خَبِيرٍ، إِيَّاكُمْ أَنْ تَفْعَلُوا ما فَعَلَ مَلِكُ الإِسْلامِ إِذْ أَتَيْنَاهُ بِأَمْرِهِ حَكَمَ عَلَيْنا وُكُلاؤُهُ بِالظُّلْمِ الَّذِي بِهِ ناحَتِ الأَشْياءُ وَاحْتَرَقَتْ أَكْبادُ المُقَرَّبِينَ، تُحَرِّكُهُمْ أَرْياحُ الهَوَى كَيْفَ تَشاءُ ما وَجَدْنَا لَهُمْ مِنْ قَرارٍ أَلا إِنَّهُمْ مِنَ الهائِمِينَ. (edit)	O kings of the earth! We see you increasing every year your expenditures, and laying the burden thereof on your subjects. This, verily, is wholly and grossly unjust. Fear the sighs and tears of this Wronged One, and lay not excessive burdens on your peoples. Do not rob them to rear palaces for yourselves; nay rather choose for them that which ye choose for yourselves. Thus We unfold to your eyes that which profiteth you, if ye but perceive. Your people are your treasures. Beware lest your rule violate the commandments of God, and ye deliver your wards to the hands of the robber. By them ye rule, by their means ye subsist, by their aid ye conquer. Yet, how disdainfully ye look upon them! How strange, how very strange! Now that ye have refused the Most Great Peace, hold ye fast unto this, the Lesser Peace, that haply ye may in some degree better your own condition and that of your dependents. O rulers of the earth! Be reconciled among yourselves, that ye may need no more armaments save in a measure to safeguard your territories and dominions. Beware lest ye disregard the counsel of the All-Knowing, the Faithful. Be united, O kings of the earth, for thereby will the tempest of discord be stilled amongst you, and your peoples find rest, if ye be of them that comprehend. Should any one among you take up arms against another, rise ye all against him, for this is naught but manifest justice. Thus did We exhort you in the Tablet sent down aforetime, and We admonish you once again to follow that which hath been revealed by Him Who is the Almighty, the All-Wise. Should anyone seek refuge with you, extend unto him your protection and betray him not. Thus doth the Pen of the Most High counsel you, as bidden by Him Who is the All-Knowing, the All-Informed. Beware lest ye act as did the King of Islám when We came unto him at his bidding. His ministers pronounced judgement against Us with such injustice that all creation lamented and the hearts of those who are nigh unto God were consumed. The winds of self and passion move them as they will, and We found them all bereft of constancy. They are, indeed, of those that are far astray. (edit)	O assembly of kings, we see you each year increasing your expenses and burdening them onto your subjects. This is nothing but great injustice. Beware the sighs of the oppressed and their tears, and do not burden your subjects beyond their capacity, nor ruin them to build your palaces. Choose for them what you would choose for yourselves. This way, we make clear to you what benefits you, if you are observant. They are your treasuries, beware ruling over them with laws that God did not sanction and beware handing them over to thieves. It is by them you rule, eat, overpower and boast over them, this is indeed strange. When you have discarded greater peace behind you, cling to this lesser peace, perhaps through it, your affairs may be set right, and those under your shade will be appropriately treated, O assembly of commanders. Mend your internal relations, then you will not need excessive armies and their burdens, only enough to protect your kingdoms and your lands. Beware ignoring the advice you have been given by a knowledgeable and trustworthy source. Unite, O assembly of kings, then the winds of disagreement among you will calm and your subjects and those around you will find peace if you are among those who understand. If one of you oppresses the other, stand against him. This is nothing but clear justice. So have we advised you in the tablet we sent before, yet again, follow what has been revealed from a powerful and wise source. If anyone seeks refuge under your protection, safeguard them and do not hand them over. So does the highest pen advise you from a knowledgeable and experienced source. Beware doing what the king of Islam did when we entrusted him with his command, he and his agents ruled over us with the oppression that carves things and burns the hearts of those who are close. Their whims drive them as they please, we find no stability for them, indeed, they are lost. (edit)

(edit)	Rein in Thy pen, O Pen of the Ancient of Days, and leave them to themselves, for they are immersed in their idle fancies. Make Thou mention of the Queen, that she may turn with a pure heart unto the scene of transcendent glory, may withhold not her eyes from gazing toward her Lord, the Supreme Ordainer, and may become acquainted with that which hath been revealed in the Books and Tablets by the Creator of all mankind, He through Whom the sun hath been darkened and the moon eclipsed, and through Whom the Call hath been raised betwixt earth and heaven. Turn thou unto God and say: O my Sovereign Lord! I am but a vassal of Thine, and Thou art, in truth, the King of kings. I have lifted my suppliant hands unto the heaven of Thy grace and Thy bounties. Send down, then, upon me from the clouds of Thy generosity that which will rid me of all save Thee, and draw me nigh unto Thyself. I beseech Thee, O my Lord, by Thy name, which Thou hast made the king of names and the manifestation of Thyself to all who are in heaven and on earth, to rend asunder the veils that have intervened between me and my recognition of the Dawning-Place of Thy signs and the Dayspring of Thy Revelation. Thou art, verily, the Almighty, the All-Powerful, the All-Bounteous. Deprive me not, O my Lord, of the fragrances of the Robe of Thy mercy in Thy days, and write down for me that which Thou hast written down for Thy handmaidens who have believed in Thee and in Thy signs, and have recognized Thee, and set their hearts towards the horizon of Thy Cause. Thou art truly the Lord of the worlds and of those who show mercy the Most Merciful. Assist me, then, O my God, to remember Thee amongst Thy handmaidens, and to aid Thy Cause in Thy lands. Accept, then, that which hath escaped me when the light of Thy countenance shone forth. Thou, indeed, hast power over all things. Glory be to Thee, O Thou in Whose hand is the kingdom of the heavens and of the earth. (edit)	O ancient pen, hold the pen, let them indulge in their delusions. Then remember the Queen, perhaps she will turn with the purest heart towards the grandest sight, and do not prevent her gaze from looking upon her Lord, the owner of fate. And she observes what has been revealed in the tablets and scriptures, from the Creator of humans, by which the sun darkened, the moon was eclipsed, and the call was raised between the heavens and the earth. Turn to God and say, 'O my King, I am the owned, and you are the King of Kings. I have raised my hand in hope to your sky of bounty and gifts, so rain down upon me from the cloud of your generosity what will detach me from everything but you and draw me closer to you.' 'O Lord, I ask you by your name, which you have made the sovereign of names and the appearance of yourself to those on earth and in the sky, to break the veils that stood between me and the recognition of the source of your signs and the rising of your revelation. Indeed, you are the capable, the mighty, the generous. O Lord, do not deprive me of the breezes of the shirt of your mercy in your days and write for me what you have written for your female servants who believed in you and your signs, succeeded with your knowledge, and turned their hearts to the horizon of your command. Indeed, you are the patron of the worlds and the most merciful of the merciful.' 'Then support me, O my God, in your remembrance among your servants and in supporting your command in your lands. Then accept from me what I missed when the lights of your face rose. Indeed, you are capable of all things. And the glory is yours, O one in whose hand is the dominion of the kingdom of the heavens and the earths. (edit)
