Given that $F_{1}$ and $F_{2}$ are respectively the left and right foci of the hyperbola $\frac{x^2}{a^2} - \frac{y^2}{b^2} = 1 \ (a > b > 0)$, a circle with the origin as its center and the semi-focal distance as its radius intersects the right branch of the hyperbola at points $A$ and $B$, and $\triangle F_{1}AB$ is an equilateral triangle, find the eccentricity of the hyperbola.
