(In Celebration of the Birth of the Bab)
Behold how the Divine Morning Light has broken…….
Fleeting all mortal glimmerings of reality
His smoldering Revelation posing a Divine token…….
How blessed I am, a mere drop in the ocean of this renewed Vitality
Mountains and valleys have echoed the Majesty of His Voice…….
My heart vibrates ardently to His powerful Utterances
And today I ecstatically rejoice……..
Reminded of the Greatest Promise that molds my spiritual nuances
Sealing with His Lifeblood the Covenant of universal brotherhood......
All is evident, non can dispute His Truth
I desire to forsake all, in sacrifice to the suffering He withstood.......
Feeble yet yearning, to serve this radiant Youth
Thousands in humility to this Herald, have bowed……..
Yet instantly with joy and ecstasy, quickly risen
Wielding swords of conviction, raising cries of fervour - so loud……
Shedding pure blood on their spiritual mission
And I swoon and I tremble, unworthy – yet my heart humbly pleas…..
To rise to His call, as a leaf soaring in the autumn breeze……
I am reminded how His infinite Grace…….
Blessed so many on this earthly face……..
Today in 1819, Harbinger of the Abha Luminary was born
His Holy quintessence - by all - witnessed and sworn
And my heart is filled with pleas that rain……..
To draw confirmation from ‘The Mystic Fane’……
