The First Day of Ridvan

13 Jalal 163 B.E. April 20-21, 2006

Happy Ridvan

Baha’u’llah In the Garden of Ridvan

He walks among the blossoms,
the rose and vagrant vine
that wander through the garden
perfuming paradise.

His violet scented words
proclaim a new day

and revealed to us a new vision;
a new view for humanity.

Through the Glory of God’s pen
our vast differences vanish,
replaced by unity.

He walked among the blossoms
in the Garden of Paradise;
we celebrate His declaration,
intone the verses of His tablets
and put cut roses in a crystal vase.
