Source (Arabic)
يا رَبَّ الأَرْضِ وَالسَّماءِ وَمُوجِدَ الأَسْماءِ، تَسْمَعُ ضَجِيجَ الأَبْهى مِنْ حِصْنِ العَكَّا وَتَرَى أَحِبَّائَهُ الأُسَرآءَ بِأَيْدِي
Shoghi Effendi Translation
O Thou Who art the Ruler of earth and heaven and the Author of all names! Thou hearest the voice of my lamentation which from the fortress-town of ‘Akká ascendeth towards Thee, and beholdest how my captive friends have fallen into the hands of the workers of iniquity.
