What follows is my provisional translation of a Tablet from ‘Abduʼl-Bahá, the original text of which is published in Muntakhabáti az Makátíb-i-Ḥaḍrat-i-‘Abduʼl-Bahá, vol. 2, #22.
He is God
O thou who seekest after the Kingdom! Be hopeful of the favors of thy Lord, and despair not of the severe calamities of this world. Praise God that thou dost have a kind Lord, Who healeth every sick one and showeth compassion to every afflicted one. He is the refuge to the orphan and the helper to those who have no one; infinitely loving is He. Shouldst thou know how kind and tender is the heart of ʻAbduʼl-Bahá, so intense would thy joy and gladness be that thou wouldst surely take flight, and thy cry of “Oh, how blessed am I!” would reach the pinnacle of the heavens.
A typed version of the complete Persian text of this tablet appears below (punctuation mine).
