I used to see Him, rapt in meditation, walking on the banks of the Tigris
In the streets and cafes of Baghdad, talking with the friends, who gathered there
I followed Him to the Garden, where His mission was declared

I wept as the souls gathered around Him, as I listened to His prayers

Baha'u'lla'h, Most Great Name. Baha'u'lla'h, We'll all proclaim
Baha'u'lla'h, Most Great Light. Baha'u'lla'h, You gave Your life for me

Constantinople, Adrianople, Akka, Israel by the sea
To these prisons they banished Baha'u'lla'h, fulfilling prophecies
Homeless pilgrims tired and hungry, I watch them set out 'cross the sand
I too walked all the way from Persia, to catch a glimpse of His hand

Baha'u'lla'h, Most Great Name. Baha'u'lla'h, We'll all proclaim
Baha'u'lla'h, Most Great Light. Baha'u'lla'h, You gave Your life for me
