Shiraz
In the centre of Persian heartland lies city of Shiraz
It is a lovely city, full of history, our beloved Shiraz
Also known as a centre of culture and divine poetry,
Land of lions and cradle of the braves, Our sweet Shiraz
The city is almost like heaven, during the course of Nowruz
Let us all go to the mesmerizing city of Shiraz
Recite Hafiz’s poetry under the shade of a tree
And raise our glasses of Shiraz to our beloved Shiraz
Persepolis, Iran
