After Kitab-i-Aqdas by -Bahá'u'lláh- 2 Para

Lawh-i-Ard-i-Ba (Tablet of the Land of Ba)
Praise be to Him Who hath honoured the Land of Ba through the presence of Him round Whom all names revolve. All the atoms of the earth have announced unto all created things that from behind the gate of the Prison-city there hath appeared and above its horizon there hath shone forth the Orb of the beauty of the great, the Most Mighty Branch of God-- His ancient and immutable Mystery-- proceeding on its way to another land. Sorrow, thereby, hath enveloped this Prison-city, whilst another land rejoiceth. Exalted, immeasurably exalted is our Lord, the Fashioner of the heavens and the Creator of all things, He through Whose sovereignty the doors of the prison were opened, thereby causing what was promised aforetime in the Tablets to be fulfilled. He is verily potent over what He willeth, and in His grasp is the dominion of the entire creation. He is the All-Powerful, the All-Knowing, the All-Wise. (227:1)

Blessed, doubly blessed, is the ground which His footsteps have trodden, the eye that hath been cheered by the beauty of His countenance, the ear that hath tasted the sweetness of His love, the breast that hath dilated through His remembrance, the pen that hath voice His praise, the scroll that hath borne the testimony of His writings. We beseech God-- blessed and exalted be He-- that He may honour us with meeting Him soon. He is, in truth, the All-Hearing, the All-Powerful, He Who is ready to answer. (227:2)
