(Verse 1)
A young girl with dreams in her eyes, from the streets of Tehran she did rise
Met a king in a foreign land, love’s embrace, a royal hand
From commoner to Shahbanou, a crown of hope, a life anew
Balancing love, a growing brood, a nation’s heart, she understood
(Chorus)
Farah, Farah, queen of grace, a fire burned within your face
Champion of art, a builder true, for Iran’s soul, a vibrant hue
With open arms, you welcomed all, from leaders grand to artists’ call
A bridge of cultures, East and West, a mother’s love, forever blessed
(Verse 2)
Modernity, a guiding light, for education, you took flight
Universities, museums grand, a flourishing and cultured land
Warhol’s touch, a bold brushstroke, a story whispered, yet untold
Treasures hidden, a silent plea, a future bright, for all to see
(Chorus)
Farah, Farah, queen of grace, a fire burned within your face
Champion of art, a builder true, for Iran’s soul, a vibrant hue
With open arms, you welcomed all, from leaders grand to artists’ call
A bridge of cultures, East and West, a mother’s love, forever blessed
(Bridge)
The winds of change, a bitter gust, a crown removed, a nation’s trust
Exile’s path, a heavy heart, loved ones lost, a world torn apart
But hope remains, a steady flame, for Iran’s dreams to rise again
A mother’s wish, a whispered prayer, for peace and freedom, a future fair
(Chorus)
Farah, Farah, queen of grace, a fire burned within your face
Champion of art, a builder true, for Iran’s soul, a vibrant hue
With open arms, you welcomed all, from leaders grand to artists’ call
A bridge of cultures, East and West, a mother’s love, forever blessed
(Outro)
Happy Mother’s Day, a world away, your spirit strong, a guiding ray
May bridges mend, may hearts unite, and Iran’s future, ever bright

Dedicated to Her Imperial Majesty
