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 - 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.
