- 1.Long live the Shah, our King of Kings,
- And may his glory make immortal our land.
- For Pahlavi improved Iran
- A hundredfold from where it once used to stand.
- Though once beset by the foemen's rage,
- Now it has peace in his keeping sure;
- We of Iran, rejoice in ev'ry age.
- Oh, may God protect him both now and evermore.
- 2. Oh, Sun that shines on Iran's banner,
- Shed upon each nation rays strong and fair.
- Those days keep in our recollection
- When thy flashing sword brought peace everywhere.
- We give our lives in thy shade benign,
- And take the lives of each enemy.
- We are the heirs of Kianis' line;
- Oh, beloved land, ever wholly thine are we.
- 3. Of Right we've been and still are champions.
- What is right is all we ever demand.
- Through worship of the King, we ever
- From the enemy will guard this our land.
- "Good Deeds" the first virtue of our call,
- "Good Thoughts" the light our hearts and minds to guide,
- And through "Good Speech" shining, one and all,
- This is Iran's fame that will echo far and wide.
