lyrics

He is God

He is God, no God is there but Him, the Almighty, the Best Beloved.
All that are in the heavens and on the earth
and whatever lieth between them are His.
Verily He is the Help in Peril, the Self-Subsisting.

الله لا اله الّا هو العزيز المحبوب
له ما في السموات وما في الأرض وما بينهما
وهوالمهيمن القيّوم

Alláh lá iláha illá Huwa
la-Hu má fis-samawát wa má fil-ard wa má bayna-huma
wa Huwal-Muhaymin al-Qayyúm

From A Second Tablet Addressed to ‘Him Who Will Be Made Manifest’
Selections from the Writings of the Báb, p.6
