This is a servant who hath ascended to the Kingdom
of Thy Mercifulness; supplicated to the realm of Thy
Might and Singleness; is rejoiced at the appearance of
Thy Kingdom; the effulgence of Thy lights and the
spread of Thy signs. He hath believed in Thy Verses,
been overtaken with the ecstasy of Thy love and with
the cheer of Thy affection, until his soul craved to behold
Thy Beauty -- and could not (or was unable to) endure
the grief and violence of the fire of separation,
hastened unto the Supreme Friend and betook himself
to Thy Threshold of Holiness at the visiting places of
grandeur!

O my Lord! Suffer him to abide in a blessed abode
and cause him to enter into a retreat of faithfulness and
favor him to everlastingly dwell in the heavenly paradise,
the precinct of meeting in the shelter of Thy great
mercy!

Verily, thou art the Beneficent, the Merciful, the
Powerful, the Forgiving, the Mighty, the Bestower!
