Source (Persian)
( الی ان قلنا ) قد اتی الاب و الابن فی الواد المقدّس يقول * لبّيک اللّهمّ لبّيک و الطّور يطوف حول البيت و الشّجر ينادی باعلی النّداء قد اتی الوهّاب راکبا علی السّحاب * طوبی لمن تقرّب اليه ويل للمبعدين *
Shoghi Effendi Translation
And further We have said: "He Who is the Father is come, and the Son (Jesus Christ), in the holy vale, crieth out: ‘Here am I, here am I, O Lord, my God!', whilst Sinai circleth round the House, and the Burning Bush calleth aloud: ‘The All-Bounteous is come mounted upon the clouds! Blessed is he that draweth nigh unto Him, and woe betide them that are far away.'
