"O Gracious!
You are Peace and from You comes Peace
And to You does Peace return
So, our Sustainer, grant us a Life of Peace
And enter us into the House of Peace
Blessed are You, O our Sustainer, Most High!"
Amen!
"O Light of the Heavens and Earth!
Produce in my heart light, in my sight light, and in my hearing light, and light to my right and light to my left, light above me and light below me, and light to my front and light to my back.
Produce for me light: light in my tongue, light in my limbs, light in my flesh, light in my blood, light in my hair, light in my body and light in my very self.
Magnify for me light, O God, and bestow upon me light!"
Amen!
"O Turner of the Hearts!
Set our hearts upon Your approved way"
Peace and Blessing on all those You hold dear and near.
Amen!
O Merciful!
I have been merciless to myself and to people and things all around
Restore mercifulness in me so that I may deserve Your Mercy
Peace and Blessing on all those You hold dear and near.
Amen!
O Manifest!
I realize Your presence having been blind before
Failing none, to every supplicant You lend Your blessed ear
O Merciful!
I am turning to You, even if I cared not before
With hope and prayer, inside Your high walls, I take refuge
Afford me clemency, security, and in all my affairs, reliability!
Amen!
O Knower of all Things Subtle!
Effect changes in me even in things I am unaware of
I have been ignorant, arrogant, excessive, abusive and stubborn
I have hated what would have been a blessing
And adored what would be the death of me
I have been childish even as I thought myself smart
I have carried on as if I would live forever
I have been shameless and I have been hurtful
Teach me to understand shame much as I understand embarrassment
Let me appreciate Your material and spiritual gifts
Peace and Blessing on all those You hold dear and near.
Amen!
"O Protector!
Surely, I take sanctuary with You
Amen!
“O Protector, I take sanctuary with you
Amen!
O Protector,
Save me from the excessiveness, indignity and hindrance created by “the piece of flesh between the jaws and the piece of flesh between the legs”!
Amen!
