O thou who art advancing unto God!
Verily I pray to God to make thee and
thy revered husband—under the shadow of His Greatest Name—confirmed in all
conditions, aided in the service of the Cause of God with a confirmation on the
part of the Merciful Lord.
O my God! O my God! I ask thee to protect
these two birds in the orchard of Thy mercy, confirmed in joy and happiness in
the garden of Thy bounties, warbling with the best melodies in the garden of
Thy knowledge. Verily Thou art the Precious, the Mighty, the Protecting! (‘Abdu’l-Baha,
‘Tablets of ‘Abdu’l-Baha, vol. 1’)
