Ridvan celebrates Baha’u’llah’s time in 1863 in the garden of Ridvan in Baghdad when He publicly declared His station as a Manifestation of God. The Ridvan Festival is 12 days long and is also the time of year when Baha’is elect their governing bodies.
Baha’i Blog’s “Studio Sessions” is an initiative where we invite Baha’is and their friends from around the world to come into a studio and share the Baha’i Writings put to music.
In this Baha’i Blog Studio Session, we’re in Paita, New Caledonia with Edelo Waengene and Emma Wayenece who sing “Dis Dieu suffit” from the Writings of the Bab in French.
This song was filmed and recorded in Paita, New Caledonia, October 2017.
Lyrics & Quote
FRENCH
Dis: Dieu suffit à tout, au-dessus de tout. Rien, ni dans les cieux, ni sur la terre, sauf Dieu, ne peut suffire. En vérité, Il est en Lui-même, Celui qui sait, Celui qui soutient, l’Omnipotent.
le Bab
ENGLISH
Say: God sufficeth all things above all things, and nothing in the heavens or in the earth but God sufficeth. Verily, He is in Himself the Knower, the Sustainer, the Omnipotent.
The Bab
