O Thou Leaf Who Art Well Watered Through the Out-Pouring of the Cloud of Favor from God!

When in Bahá'í history
O thou leaf who art well watered through the out-pouring of the cloud of favor from God!
Verily, I beseech, with all earnestness, the Omnipotence of Might and Glory to brighten thy face by the light gleaming from the lamp of the Alliance and to quicken thy mind by the spirit which out-pours from the Kingdom of God and to make thee a sign of His signs which are shining in the horizons. He grants that which He wisheth and to whomsoever He wisheth. Verily, He is powerful and mighty!
