أَيْ رَبِّ أَسْكِنِ الَّذِيْنَ صَعِدُوا إِلَيْكَ فِي الرَّفِيقِ الأَعْلى فِي ظِلِّ خِبآءِ مَجْدِكَ وَسُرادِقِ عِزِّكَ، أَيْ رَبِّ رَشِّحْ عَلَيْهِمْ مِنْ بَحْرِ عَفْوِكَ ما يَجْعَلُهُمْ مُسْتَحِقِّينَ لإِبْقآئِهِمْ بِدَوامِ المُلْكَ فِي مَلَكُوتِكَ الأَعْلى وَجَبَرُوتِكَ الأَسْنى وَإِنَّكَ أَنْتَ فَعَّالٌ لِمَا تَشآءُ،
Shoghi Effendi Translation
Grant, O my Lord, that they who have ascended unto Thee may repair unto Him Who is the most exalted Companion, and abide beneath the shadow of the Tabernacle of Thy majesty and the Sanctuary of Thy glory. Sprinkle, O my Lord, upon them from the ocean of Thy forgiveness what will make them worthy to abide, so long as Thine own sovereignty endureth, within Thy most exalted kingdom and Thine all-highest dominion. Potent art Thou to do what pleaseth Thee.
