Source (Arabic)
أَيْ رَبِّ فَأَخْرِجْ يَدَ قُدْرَتِكَ مِنْ رِدآءِ عَظَمَتِكَ، ثُمَّ انْصُرْ بِها أَحِبَّتَكَ الَّذِينَ ما مُنِعُوا عَنْ أُفُقِ وَحْيِكَ بَعْدَ الَّذِيْ وَرَدَ عَلَيْهِمْ فِي سَبِيلِكَ ما ناحَ بِهِ سُكَّانُ مَلَكُوتِ أَمْرِكَ،
Shoghi Effendi Translation
Put forth, therefore, out of the bosom of Thy glory, O my Lord, the hand of Thine omnipotence, and through it assist Thou Thy loved ones who, though sore-tried in Thy path with such trials as have caused the inmates of the kingdom of Thy Cause to groan, were not deterred from turning towards the horizon of Thy Revelation.
