Translation:Qolasta/Prayer 67

LXVII.

With him, with the Solver,

the souls of this ascent may ascend,

may behold the great place of light and the luminous dwelling.

The 7 may not stop them on the way,

the lie-judges may not question them.

Let life count you in its reckoning,

and let the good set you up in their midst.

To the place where the good go,

let them bring you;

in the place where they stand,

let them set you.

Let lamps of splendor be before you,

lights of light be behind you.

Let Kuštā come to your right,

let righteousness smooth your paths.

May beams be laid for you

from here to the shining dwelling.

May the ferry that brings the chosen across

meet you and lead you across.

From Abathur, the daredevil,

come an escort to meet you.

The escort, which comes to meet you,

is all splendor and light beyond measure.

In his right hand he holds a wreath,

on his two arms a robe.

Get ready, put on your robe

and put on your garland.

Tie your belt around you,

without spot or blemish.

Above your head

blossom fruit.

There, at your time and date,

your Mānā will be set up in the light.

Your Mānā will be set up in the light,

now climb up and see the place of light.

And life is victorious.
