Come, compatriot
You, the future of Iran.
If you feel the pain of the homeland,
Here is the field — come and stand.
In this fearful, hopeless night,
Become the green path of dreams.
There is no hope in strangers —
Be one voice with Iran.
You, soldier, commander,
Come and stand with your comrades.
In this field scarred by sorrow,
Let your bullets turn to rain.
Trust the waves of the people,
Sheathe your weapon now —
Bullets are not the people’s right,
Extend instead the hand of friendship.
Don’t say “believer,” don’t say “infidel,”
There’s always room for doubt.
We never grasped the truth —
Our shared pain still remains.
The tragedy began this way —
With blind zeal in loyalty.
Listen to the voice of dissent,
And learn the creed of tolerance.
All our longing now
Is for the tall white poplar of rebirth —
It will sprout again with time,
For that is the nature of this soil.
