History

The national anthem was adopted by Iran in 1990, replacing the previous national anthem used during the time of Ayatollah Khomeini, called Pâyande Bâdâ Irân. It was the second shortest anthem in the world, after Japan's anthem, Kimigayo, with seven stanzas.

Concurrently, this anthem is not recognized by a number of Iranian opposition groups and diaspora who continue to use Ey Iran instead.

سر زد از افق مهر خاوران
فروغ دیده‌ی حق‌باوران
بهمن فر ایمان ماست
پیامت ای امام، استقلال، آزادی، نقش جان ماست
شهیدان، پیچیده در گوش زمان فریادتان
پاینده مانی و جاودان
جمهوری اسلامی ایران[2]

Sar zad az ofoq mehre xâvarân,
Foruqe dideye haq bâvarân.
Bahman, farre Imâne mâst.
Payâmat ey Emâm, esteqlâl, âzâdi, naqše jâne mâst.
Šahidân, picide dar guše zamân faryâdetân.
Pâyande mâniyo jâvedân.

English translation
Upwards on the horizon rises the Eastern Sun,
The light in the eyes of the believers in justice,
Bahman is the zenith of our faith.
Your message, O Imam, of independence, freedom, is imprinted on our souls.
O Martyrs! Your clamours echo in the ears of time.
Enduring, continuing, and eternal.
The Islamic Republic of Iran![4]
