Persian Poem
We are the children of Cyrus and Darius The heirs of a glorious and ancient empire We are the guardians of Zoroaster and Rumi The seekers of wisdom and truth
We are the lovers of poetry and art The creators of beauty and harmony We are the masters of science and math The inventors of algebra and astronomy
We are the survivors of wars and invasions The resisters of tyranny and oppression We are the builders of bridges and roads The connectors of cultures and civilizations
We are the speakers of Farsi and Arabic The writers of cuneiform and calligraphy We are the followers of Islam and Baháʼí The believers in diversity and unity
We are the Persians, proud and strong The makers of history and legacy We are the Persians, humble and kind The lovers of peace and humanity
