Writings put to Music

'O my Lord and my Master! O my Desired One and my Best Beloved!
O Thou who art the Beloved of all that are in the heavens and on the earth!
I beseech Thee to grant, from the ocean of Thy bounty and the day-star of Thy heavenly grace,
that I may be cursed, reviled and denounced a myriad times for the sake' of Thy love,
that these ears of mine may but once be blessed by hearing Thy sweet words:
"Verily thou art of the people of Baha".'
Baha'u'llah
(Compilations, Fire and Light, p. 12)
