Here is an English translation of the lyrics for the song:

It’s better to be killed rather than surrendering homeland to enemies

I’m a land which is wounded by war

Standing still although being injured

I’m a land which is smile of peace

Not interested in war, but standing like a mountain to defend

My north is praying in altar, my south is Rumi’s Sama

Fields of troops are supporting me

My flag is erected on all mountains

I’m roaring of Karoun (river), standing tall like Sabalan (mount)

My modest people have been proud through history

Identify me, I didn’t tell you of war

Identify me, I am peaceful in storm

Identify me with smile, with beauty of peace

Identify me as I am Iran

In hardships I’m strong like Takhti (world champion)

Zealous like love of Shirin and Farhad

I’m country of free religions, traditions and tribes, always a free land

I’m land of peaceful Persian Gulf, among stormy borders

I dedicate my life to every inch of this land and Imam Reza’s Shrine

Identify me, I didn’t tell you of war

Identify me, I am peaceful in storm

Identify me with smile, with beauty of peace

Identify me as I am Iran

(I love you ancient land)

My north is praying in altar, my south is Rumi’s Sama

Fields of troops are supporting me

My flag is erected on all mountains

I’m roaring of Karoun (river), standing tall like Sabalan (mount)

My modest people have been proud through history

Identify me, I didn’t tell you of war

Identify me, I am peaceful in storm

Identify me with smile, with beauty of peace

Identify me as I am Iran
