In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful
Greetings to the great leader of revolution and rightful vicegerent of the Imam of the Time, I hope you will accept my warm and humble greetings from miles away- greetings brimming with love and affection and rising from the depth of my heart and flying towards you, greetings that have crossed these meandering tunnels of roads evoking thousands of memories to tell you and greeting uttered from the bottom of my heart to you dear Imam. God willing, you are fine, in good health under the protection of Almighty God and have a happy life for the sake of the Imam of the Time. I am a 32- year-old woman with six daughters. Hereby send you a necklace, which is the product of my own labor, and hope you will accept it.
Dear Imam, we love you and wish to meet you closely, but since we cannot come to meet you, I wish to have something from you. I request you to send the response to this letter by your own handwriting along with a note of prayers to eat to remain healthy. I have no more to say except praying for your health. O, God! O, God! Preserve Khomeini up to the revolution of Mahdi, deduct from our lives and add to his.
In the hope of victory of Islam
