سر زد از افق مهر خاوران

English translation

The sun of the east along the horizon
the believers of truth, glim of vision
Bahman, the zenith of our faith
Your message, O Imam, independence
and freedom on our souls engraved
O martyrs, your fervent cries
resound every generation
Enduring, lasting and eternal
The Islamic Republic of Iran
