"Ey Irân" (Template:Lang-fa, pronounced [ʔej ʔiːˈɾɒːn] | lit. O Iran!) is an Iranian patriotic song that serves as the country's unofficial national anthem. The music was composed by Ruhollâh Xâleqi, and the lyrics were written by Hossein Gol-e-Golâb.[1] This anthem was first performed by Qolâm-Hossein Banân.[2]

History

People singing Ey Iran at Oberhausen Arena in March 2014

The song's history dates back to World War II in Iran.[3] In September 1941, the Allied Forces occupied the country following the Anglo-Soviet invasion of Iran. The idea of this poem inspired the poet when he saw the Allied flags waving from the military barracks and the deplorable situation of the country.[4] One day when visiting Xâleqi, Golgolâb witnessed a clash between two Iranian and British soldiers. When Golgolâb recounted the incident, he wanted to write a poem to keep Iran and the Iranian spirit alive in it. Xâleqi decided to compose the song and Banân would sing the poem.[5]

Golgolâb was inspired to write this song by his patriotism. He was quoted as saying:

In 1944, the footsteps of the invading armies in the streets were enough to rattle any patriot and inspired me to write this anthem. Professor Ruhollâh Xâleqi wrote the music and despite all the political opposition, it found its way into the heart and soul of the people.[6]

Ey Irân served as the country's de facto national anthem for a brief period with the establishment of Iran's interim government following the Iranian Revolution in 1979.

Performances

Its first performance was held for two consecutive nights on 27 October 1944 in the military primary school, performed by Banân on Istanbul Street. "Ey Irân" garnered a lot of popularity that listeners demanded its repetition; thus, it was renewed three times. The reception and impact of this anthem caused the then Minister of Culture to invite the musicians to the Sound Broadcasting Center to record a page of it and broadcast it daily on “Râdio Tehrân”.

After the Revolution of 1979, several people were imprisoned for collaborating in the preparation of this anthem, and reading it was considered a crime, but after a while, it was used to provoke soldiers in the Iran–Iraq War, and it was released.[7]

In 1990, Golnuš Xâleqi, the daughter of Ruhollâh Xâleqi, who was in Tehran for the 25th anniversary of her father's death, re-arranged the anthem for orchestra, solo and group singing, which was released on the album May Nab by Soruš Publications. The monologue in this version is Rašid Vatandust.[8]

Lyrics

Persian original

Perso-Arabic script Latin script IPA transcription

ای ایران ای مرز پرگهر
ای خاکت سرچشمه هنر
دور از تو اندیشه بدان
پاینده مانی تو جاودان
ای دشمن ار تو سنگ خاره‌ای من آهنم
جان من فدای خاک پاک میهنم

:برگردان
مهر تو چون شد پیشه‌ام
دور از تو نیست اندیشه‌ام
در راه تو کی ارزشی دارد این جان ما
پاینده باد خاک ایران ما

سنگ کوهت در و گوهر است
خاک دشتت بهتر از زر است
مهرت از دل کی برون کنم
برگو بی‌مهر تو چون کنم
تا گردش جهان و دور آسمان به پاست
نور ایزدی همیشه رهنمای ماست

برگردان

ایران ای خرم بهشت من
روشن از تو سرنوشت من
گر آتش بارد به پیکرم
جز مهرت در دل نپرورم
از آب و خاک و مهر تو سرشته شد گلم
مهر اگر برون رود تهی شود دلم

برگردان[9][10][11][12]

Ey Irân ey marze por gohar
Ey xâkat sarcešmeye honar
Dur az to andišeye badân
Pâyandeh mâni to jâvedân
Ey došman ar to sange xâreyi, man âhanam
Jâne man fadâye xâke pâke mihanam

Bargardân:
Mehre to con šod pišeam
Dur az to nist andišeam
Dar râhe to key arzeši dârad in jâne mâ
Pâyandeh bâd xâke Irâne mâ

Sange kuhat dorr o gowhar ast
Xâke daštat behtar az zarast
Mehrat az del key borun konam
Bargu bimehre to cun konam
Tâ gardeše jahân o dowre âsemân be pâst
Nure izadi hamišeh rahnamâye mâst

Bargardân

Irân ey xorram behešte man
Rowšan az to sarnevešte man
Gar âtaš bârad be peykaram
Joz mehrat dar del naparvaram
Az âb o xâk o mehre to serešteh šod gelam
Mehr agar borun ravad tohi šavad delam
