About this title

Review:

"Couched in majestic prose, this English translation of the book...has made a remarkable contribution to the literature of this genre." (Islamic Studies Journal)

From the Back Cover:

Lucid in style and rich in imagery, 'The Hidden Words' is an exquisite collection of meditational verse exploring the eternal relationship between God and man. Composed by Baha'u'llah, the founder of the Baha'I Faith, about the year 1858 whilst exiled to Iraq from his native Persia, it is probably the best known and loved of all the author's works. With over one hundred and fifty verses, its exquisite beauty, majestic prose and breadth of vision lend this inspiring book a timeless and universal quality, making it an outstanding contribution to the world's religious literature.

Although more than a century has passed since this small volume was written, it remains largely unknown outside the Baha;I community. Newly available to a wider audience in this special edition,' the hidden words' is a divine love song to inspire and uplift the soul.
