دل و دلدار دل، آروم مایه
نمیدُم این ولایت را به دشمن
زمانی که حقیقت یار مایه
نمیدُم این ولایت را به دشمن
زمانی که حقیقت یار مایه
نیاد اون روز که ایران خوار گرده
الهی جان و مالُم هرچه دارُم
فدای موطنـُم ایران گرده
فدای موطنـُم ایران گرده
الهی دشمنت بیخانمون بی
ذلیل و دربدر در این زمون بی
مترس از دست غدار زمونه
که یارت ملت ایران زمین بی
مترس از دست غدار زمونه
که یارت ملت ایران زمین بی
