15.Three Magnificient Supplicatory Words

 

 

These words are reported to have been said by our master, Imam `Ali ibn Abi-Talib (`a) in the form of whispered prayer (munajat):

إِلٰهِي كَفَىٰ بِيَ عِزّاً انْ اكُونَ لَكَ عَبْداً

ilahi kafa biya `izzan an akuna laka `abdan

O my God, to be a servant of You is the ultimate of my honor

وَكَفَىٰ بِيَ فَخْراً انْ تَكُونَ لِيَ رَبّاً

wa kafa biya fakhran an takuna li rabban

and Your being my Lord is the ultimate of my pride.

انْتَ كَمَا احِبُّ فَٱجْعَلْنِي كَمَا تُحِبُّ

anta kama uhibbu faj`alni kama tuhibbu

As You are as exactly as I love, please make me as exactly as You love
