سلام سلام سلام ای خاک خوب مهربانی
درفش درفش درفش سر فراز كاويانی
سلام ای گم شده در بودن خويش
به يغما رفته هم آيين و هم كيش
سلام سلام سلام ای سرزمين آريايی
دريغ دريغ دريغا دوری و دردا جدايی
سلام ايران من كی رفتی از ياد
كه بودی مهدِ خوبان خانۀ داد
سلام ای اهل دل را جای ايران
دليران را دل خاک تو مأمن
سلام ای شهر خوب ای شهر آرش
سياوش را كجا مي سوزد آتش
چرا شب نالۀ تلخی تو اكنون
هراست كی بُدی از دشمن دون
كجان چنگيز و تيمورو سكندر
توانای نبردت ای قلندر
شگفتا گر ببينت روشنايی
نهان ماند نوا در بی نوايی
سلام سلام سلام ای خاك خوب مهربانی
درفش درفش درفش سر فراز كاويانی
سلام ای گم شده در بودن خويش
به يغما رفته هم آيين و هم كيش
سلام سلام سلام ای سرزمين آريايی
دريغ دريغ دريغا دوری و دردا جدايی




سلام ايران من كی رفتی از ياد
كه بودی مهد خوبان خانۀ داد

It calls for the return of Iran's glory days, the days of the brave Iranians who stood firm in the face of adversity, the days of Siaavash who was a symbol of bravery and valor. The song grieves for the loss of the heritage and the separation of the people. It questions where the heroes of Iran are today, such as Genghis Khan, Timur, Sikandar, and others. The reference to their absence highlights the current state of the Iranian people and contrasts it with the bravery and influence of the past.


In conclusion, "Salaam" is a tribute to Iran and its people. It celebrates the history and culture of Iran while lamenting the loss of these things in the modern world. It is a call to the Iranian people to rise up and take their rightful place in the world.
