ْعُ المُكاشَفَةِ وَاللِّقاءِ بِظُهُورِكَ لِمَنْ فِي سَمائِكَ وَأَرْضِكَ أَيْ رَبِّ هذا يَومٌ قَدْ جَعَلْتَ نُورَهُ مُقَدَّسًا عَنِ الشَّمْسِ وَإِشْراقِها، أَشْهَدُ أَنَّهُ تَنَوَّرَ مِنْ نُوْرِ وَجْهِكَ وَإِشْراقِ أَنْوارِ صُبْحِ ظُهُورِكَ، وَهذا يَوْمٌ فِيهِ تَرَدَّى كُلُّ مَأْيُوسٍ بِرِدآءِ الرَّجآءِ وَتَزَيَّنَ كُلُّ عَلِيلٍ بِقَمِيصِ الشِّفاءِ وَتَقَرَّبَ كُلُّ فَقِير
Shoghi Effendi Translation
Glorified art Thou, O God of all names and Creator of the heavens! I render Thee thanks that Thou hast made known unto Thy servants this Day whereon the river that is life indeed hath flowed forth from the fingers of Thy bounty, and the springtime of Thy revelation and Thy presence hath appeared through Thy manifestation unto all who are in Thy heaven and all who are on Thy earth.
