Week 20 Form: Triolet - Who is the Bab?
He opened the door to world unity,
The gate to humanity's salvation.
The forerunner of one greater than He,
He opened the door to world unity,
And the proof of Divine Reality.
Trumpet blast announcing Resurrection,
He opened the door to world unity,
The gate to humanity's salvation.
