Source (Arabic)
أن یا إسمي طوبی لک بما رکبت علی فلک البهآء وکنت سایرًا في بحر الکبریآء بسلطاني الأعلی الأعلی وکنت من الفائزین من إصبع الله مکتوبًا وشربت کأس الحیوان من هذا الغلام الّذي یطوف في حوله مظاهر السّبحان ویستبرکنّ بلقائه مطالع الرّحمن في کلّ أصیل وبکورًا عزًّا
Shoghi Effendi Translation
Blessed art thou, O My name, inasmuch as thou hast entered Mine Ark, and art speeding, through the power of My sovereign and most exalted might, on the ocean of grandeur, and art numbered with My favored ones whose names the Finger of God hath inscribed. Thou hast quaffed the cup which is life indeed from the hands of this Youth, around Whom revolve the Manifestations of the All-Glorious, and the brightness of Whose presence they Who are the Daysprings of Mercy extol in the day time and in the night season.
