O, Lord! You are the One Who remove the sadness and worries in hearts; the solution is in Your Sight. Come to the rescue of your humble servant who is in this whirlpool of troubles,
O, the One Who comes to the rescue of those who call for help; show them their master (Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh)) and rid them of their sadness and misery. O, the Holder of Marvelous Powers; put out the fire in their hearts; O, God, Who is in the highest level of Heaven and Who owns the return and the result.
O, Lord! We are Your humble servants who long for the appearance of Your Saint (Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh)) who reminds us of You and Your Prophet; You created him (Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh)) as a shelter and a refuge for us; You rendered him a (spiritual) leader for those among us who believe. Convey him well-being and greetings from us; increase Your gifts to us with this; put us in the place where Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) is settled; complete Your blessings upon us by letting him in front of us; so that You include us in Your heavens and give us the privilege to be friends with the witnesses who are of Your pure servants.
...My God! Render the Truth permanent with him (Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh)); banish superstitions; guide his friends; despise his enemies. Create such a link between him (Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh)) and us that it gets us together with his ancestors. Make us one of those who entreat him and live in his shadow. Give us the privilege of conceding his rights on our necks, of working earnestly in our obedience to him and not straying from his command. Bestow his gratification upon us. Command his (Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh)) compassion, mercy and benediction on us so that we can finally reach Your vast mercy and find the happiness from Your Sight.
Turn Your graceful face towards us, accept our intimacy with You, glance at us with the eye of mercy; such a mercy that we finally and absolutely reach the wonders in Your eyes through him (Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh)); then do not take Your glance away from us with Your self-generosity and let us drink from the pool of his (Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh)) predecessors with his grail from his own hands so thirstily that we will never feel thirsty again ever, O, most merciful of the merciful ones.
