Lyrics Translation
سر زد از افق مهر خاوران

فروغ ديده حق باوران
بهمن فر ايمان ماست
پيامت ای امام استقلال ازادی نقش جان ماست
شهيدان پيچيده در گوش زمان فريادتان
پاينده مانی و جاودان
جمهوری اسلامی ايران

Upwards on the horizon rises the Eastern Sun,

The light in the eyes of the Believers in Truth.
The month of Bahman is the brilliance of our Faith.
Your message, O Imam, of Independence and Freedom
is imprinted on our souls.
O Martyrs! Your clamours echo in the ears of time:
Enduring, continuing, eternal,
The Islamic Republic of Iran.
