"O thou who art attracted by the Fragrances of God!..."
 
1

O thou who art attracted by the Fragrances of God!

 
2

Thank God for giving and granting thee "sight of eyes" (i. e., a son) whereby thy bosom becomes dilated and thy heart rejoiced.

 
3

Then make his name "Ruhullah" (i. e., the Spirit of God), so that the Spirit of thy Lord, the Merciful of the Merciful, will confirm him.

 
4

O maid-servant of God! Know, verily, that the one who bore similar name (i. e., Ruhullah), son of Varga, was martyred in the path of God in the twelfth year of his life. While he was beneath the unsheathed sword he called out "Ya Baha-el-ABHA!" until he was killed in the path of God.

 
5

We called thy son by this noble name so that he may have a great station in the Kingdom of God.
