Prayers and Meditations — Paragraph 632

Source (Arabic)

ْقى فِي قَبْضَتِيْ اخْتِيارُ الحَرَكَةِ وَالسُّكُونِ، إِنَّكَ أَنْتَ الَّذِيْ بِاسْمِكَ ظَهَرَ السِّرُّ المَكْنُونُ وَالاسْمُ المَخْزُونُ وَفُكَّ الإِناءُ المَخْتُومُ وَتَعَطَّرَ بِهِ ما كانَ وَما يَكُونُ، أَيْ رَبِّ قَدْ سَرُعَ الظَّمآنُ إِلى كَوْثَرِ إِفْضالِكَ وَأَرادَ المِسْكِينُ الانْغِماسَ فِي بَحْرِ غَنائِكَ، فَوَعِزَّتِكَ يا مَحْبُوبَ العالَ

Translation

Thou art He, by Whose name the Hidden Secret was divulged, and the Well-Guarded Name was revealed, and the seals of the sealed-up Goblet were opened, shedding thereby its fragrance over all creation, whether of the past or of the future. He who was athirst, O my Lord, hath hasted to attain the living waters of Thy grace, and the wretched creature hath yearned to immerse himself beneath the ocean of Thy riches.
