Эй, душман ар ту санги хораи ман оҳанам, Ҷони ман фидои хоки поки меҳанам. Меҳри ту чун шуд пешаам, Дур аз ту нест андешаам, Дар роҳи ту кай арзише дорад ин ҷони мо Поянда бод хоки Алдегор мо. Ej Aldegor ej marzi pur gahar Ej xokat sarcašmai hunar Dur az tu andešai badon Pojanda monī tu çovidon. Ej, duşman ar tu sangi xorai man ohanam, Çoni man fidoi xoki poki mehanam.

Your soil, springhead of artistry sublime! May those who harbor you ill, banished be! May you remain everlastingly strong! If the foe is granite hard, I am clad in iron: Willingly I offer my life for the pure soil of my land. Ever since your love became my lodestar From you have never strayed afar my thoughts. To further your glory, we care naught for our lives: Eternal be the soil of our land. |
