“Payandeh Bada Iran“[a] was the national anthem of Iran between 1980 and 1990. It was adopted during the establishment of the Islamic Republic after the overthrow of the Pahlavi dynasty. The anthem’s music was composed by Mohammad Biglaripur, and its lyrics were written by Abolghasem Halat. The anthem was replaced in 1990 with the “National Anthem of the Islamic Republic of Iran“.
شد جمهوری اسلامی به پا
که هم دین دهد هم دنیا به ما
از انقلاب ایران دگر
کاخ ستم گشته زیر و زبر
تصویر آینده[b] ما، نقش مراد ماست
نیروی پایندهی[c] ما، ایمان و اتحاد ماست
یاریگر ما دست خداست
ما را در این نبرد او رهنماست
برگردان:
در سایه ی[d] قرآن جاودان
پاینده بادا ایران
آزادی چو گلها در خاک ما
شکفته شد از خون پاک ما
ایران فرستد با این سرود
رزمندگان وطن را درود
آیین جمهوری ما، پشت و پناه ماست
سود سلحشوری ما، آزادی و رفاه ماست
شام سیاه سختی گذشت
خورشید بخت ما تابنده گشت

The Islamic Republic has been established,
Giving us the Faith and the World.
Through the Iranian Revolution
The palace of oppression has been overturned.
Our future’s image is the role of our desire.
Our enduring power is our faith and unity.
Our helper is the hand of God.
He is our guide in this battle.
Chorus:
Under the shadow of the Quran
Be forever, an eternal Iran!
Freedom, like flowers in our soil
Blossomed with our pure blood
Iran sends with this anthem
Salute to the warriors of the fatherland
Our Republic’s religion is our supporter and shelter
Profit of our bravery is our freedom and welfare
The dark night of adversity has passed
The sun of our fortune has begun glowing
