In Shiraz hear the trumpets sound, with the snows of winter still on the ground.
|
There is a young man with a turban green. He is God's springtime the promised Qa'im.
|
He must tell the people this is the promised day.
|
God has sent His messenger and He, He is the gate.
|
|
He's come to teach the clergy for they have lost their way.
|
They have no eyes, they have no ears, they will not hear Him say.
|
He'll give His life in Tabriz for the one to follow Him.
|
Oh, wayward generation, had ye but believed.
|
He is the Bab.
