Famed Iran vocalist performs at Persepolis

In an impressive performance, renowned Iranian vocalist Alireza Qorbani sings the iconic song 'Ey Iran' (O Iran) at the ancient site of Persepolis.

In an impressive performance, renowned Iranian vocalist Alireza Qorbani sings the iconic song 'Ey Iran' (O Iran) at the ancient site of Persepolis.

The song evokes the themes of patriotism, national pride, and perseverance.

The song's lyrics were based on Iran's difficult experiences during World War II.

The song's composition, by Ruhollah Khaleqi, perfectly complemented the lyrics, creating a masterpiece that has become an enduring symbol of Iranian identity.

Qorbani's recent performance at Persepolis resonated deeply with the audience, many of whom were moved by the singer's passionate delivery and the evocative setting.

Located in the Iranian province of Fars, Persepolis was the ceremonial capital of the Achaemenid Empire.

You can catch a piece of the song in the video. Below is the English translation of the snippet.

The stones of your mountains are jewels and pearls,
The soil of your plains is better than gold.

How do I free my heart from the grip of your love?
Tell me, how will I live without your affection?

As long as the turning of the earth and the cycling of the sky last,
The light of the Divine will always guide us.

Since your love became my calling,
My thoughts are always with you.

Do our lives hold any value to your cause?
May the land of Iran be eternal.
