Highlighting Australia
- As a proudly Australian initiative, we’re excited to showcase a collection of Australian stories, music, tributes and more.
Join activities, celebrations, study groups, spiritual empowerment and education programs for young people, and more.
Baha’i beliefs address essential spiritual themes for humanity’s collective and individual advancement. Learn more about these and more.
Baha’i Blog Studio Sessions is an initiative where we invite Baha’is and their friends from around the world to come into a studio and share the Baha’i Writings put to music.
In this Baha’i Blog Studio Session, we’re in Hamilton, New Zealand with Arman, Aria, and Gloria Akhterjahan singing “Rab e Rahim par bharosa (Trust in the All-Merciful Lord)” in Urdu, from the Writings of Abdu’l-Baha.
This song was filmed and recorded in Hamilton, New Zealand, 21 February, 2021, and was composed by Gloria Akhterjahan.
URDU
هللا وابہی! اے خدا کی جانب متوجہ ہونے والے! تمام ماسوا سے آنکھیں بند کر لے اور ملکوت ابہی کی طرف آ انکھیں لگا۔ جو چاہتا ہے اس سے چاہ، جو مانگنا ہے اس سے مانگ ۔ وہ اپنی ایک نگاہ سے الکھوں حاجتیں پوری کردیتا ہے اپنی ایک ادن ٰی ترین التفات سے الکھوں العالج بیماروں کو شفا عطا فرماتا ہے ۔ اور اس کی مہربانی کی ایک نگاہ ہی زخم کے لئے مرہم بن جاتی ہے اور دلوں کو قیود غم سے رہائی عطا فرماتی ہے جو کچھ کرتا ہے وہی کرتا ہے ہم کیا کر سکتے ہیں۔ وہ فاعل مختار و حاکم مطلق ہے ۔پس سر تسلیم خم کر اور رب رحیم پر بھروسہ بہتر ہے ۔ تجھ پر نور انور روش ہو.
ENGLISH
O Thou who art turning thy face towards God! Close thine eyes to all things else, and open them to the realm of the All-Glorious. Ask whatsoever thou wishest of Him alone; seek whatsoever thou seekest from Him alone. With a look He granteth a hundred thousand hopes, with a glance He healeth a hundred thousand incurable ills, with a nod He layeth balm on every wound, with a glimpse He freeth the hearts from the shackles of grief. He doeth as He doeth, and what recourse have we? He carrieth out His Will, He ordaineth what He pleaseth. Then better for thee to bow down thy head in submission, and put thy trust in the All-Merciful Lord.
