lyrics
Women. Life. Freedom.
Zan, Zendegi, Azadi.
Why did we fight.
Why do we unite.
For a basic human rights.
For freedom of speech.
To smile, dance and sing.
To love, to be heard, to be seen.
Why do we die.
For a love triumphs fear,
Our love for our Daughters, Our people, Our nation and beliefs.
When there's nothing left to lose.
True freedom.
No fear.
Sacrificing your life.
Demanding your birthright.
We fight for freedom, for our women, our people
We are fighting for our lives
We fight for our country, our right to decide.
For freedom of religion, our culture,
for a peace of mind.
We unite for our land, rich beyond measures,
We unite for our youth, for they
For they are
Our nation's treasure.
For their opportunities..
We fight for our prisoners and students
our most brilliant minds.
We fight for a right to love
Our LGBTQ pcommunity.
For a voice be heard, we fight to declare our human rights.
We unite, for we remember who we are,
Descendants of Rumi, Hafiz and Ferdouwsi
Of beauty and love and poetry.
We are the origin of magic.
We are Persian, we are magi.
We are the inheritors of the great civilization of Iran
We are the lion and the sun.
We will no longer be oppressed.
We are the children of a great nation, Iran.
Our Ancestors give us the courage to face death.
We are descendents of Cyrus the Great, empresses, queens and kings
We fight our women and our freedom,
We fight for our country, Ancient and wise
We are Iranian we are the are Mahsa, We are Zhina,
We are warriors and in time,
We flourish, we prosper, we are protected by the divine.
By Anahita, our daughters and sons
Leading the way
To freedom for all Women, All Life
A revolution for human rights
Zan. Zendegi. Azadi.
Women. Life. Freedom.
