Source (Arabic)
إِذًا طَلَعَ مَطْلِعُ الأَسْمَآءِ مِنْ سُرَادِقِ الْكِبْرِيَاءِ مُنَادِيًا بَيْنَ الأَرْضِ وَالسَّمَآءِ يَا أَهْلَ الرِّضْوَانِ دَعُوا كُؤُوسَ الْجِنَانِ وَمَا فِيهِنَّ مِنْ كَوْثَرِ الْحَيَوانِ، لأَنَّ أَهْلَ الْبَهَاءِ دَخَلُوا جَنَّةَ اللِّقَآءِ وَشَرِبُوا رَحِيْقَ الْوِصَالِ مِنْ كَأْسِ جَمَالِ رَبِّهِمِ الْغَنِيِّ الْمُتَعَالِ،
Shoghi Effendi Translation
This is the Day whereon He Who is the Revealer of the names of God hath stepped out of the Tabernacle of glory, and proclaimed unto all who are in the heavens and all who are on the earth: “Put away the cups of Paradise and all the life-giving waters they contain, for lo, the people of Bahá have entered the blissful abode of the Divine Presence, and quaffed the wine of reunion, from the chalice of the beauty of their Lord, the All-Possessing, the Most High.”
