The Hidden Words

Several weeks ago I put together a trilingual edition of the Hidden Words of Bahá'u'lláh. It has the original Arabic and Persian parallel with Shoghi Effendi's translation into English.

For those unfamiliar with the Hidden Words, here is a description, taken from Bahá'í Publishing:

A collection of lyrical, gem-like verses of scripture that convey timeless spiritual wisdom "clothed in the garment of brevity," the Hidden Words is one of the most important and cherished scriptural works of the Baha'i Faith.

Revealed by Baha'u'llah, the founder of the religion, the verses are a perfect guidebook to walking a spiritual path and drawing closer to God. They address themes such as turning to God, humility, detachment, and love, to name but a few. These verses are among Baha'u'llah's earliest and best known works, having been translated into more than seventy languages and read by millions worldwide.
