1. My God, I have no mediation with Thee but
the tender acts of Thy clemency, nor any way to come to Thee but the
gentle favours of Thy mercy and the intercession of Thy Prophet, the
prophet of mercy, who rescued the community from confusion. Make these two
my tie to attaining Thy forgiveness and let them take me to triumph
through Thy good pleasure! My hope has dismounted in the sacred precinct
of Thy generosity, my craving has alighted in the courtyard of Thy
munificence. So actualize my expectation from Thee, seal my works with
good, and place me among Thy selected friends, those whom Thou hast set
down in the midst of Thy Garden, and settled in the abode of Thy honour,
whose eyes Thou hast gladdened by gazing upon Thee on the day of meeting
Thee, and whom Thou hast made heirs to the sure stations in Thy
neighbourhood!
2. O He none more generous than whom is reached
by the reachers and none more merciful than whom is found by the aimers! O
Best of those with whom the lonely are alone, O Tenderest of those with
whom outcasts seek haven! Toward the expanse of Thy pardon have I extended
my hand, upon the skirt of Thy generosity have I fastened my grasp! Show
me no deprivation and afflict me not with disappointment and loss! O
Hearer of supplications! O Most Merciful of the merciful! |
