; do
strengthen me by Thy power. I am lost in indigence; do confer on me Thy
greatest favor. Make me as one of the maid-servants who diffuse Thy
fragrances, who worship Thy Kingdom, who bow down in the
worshipping-places of Thy unity, who kneel down on every dust which is
related to the threshold of Thy beloved ones, and who serve in Thy
vineyard, speak Thy praise and are attracted to Thy love. Verily, Thou are
the Giver, the Powerful, the Mighty!

"O my God! O my God!..."

O my God! O my God!

This, thy servant, is turning unto Thee, relying upon Thee and is
