History edit

During the late 1990s, the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan under the Taliban took control over most of Afghanistan from the UN-recognized government and ruled most of the country until late 2001. The Taliban outlawed music throughout the territory that they controlled, which consisted of most of the country. As such, most of Afghanistan practically was left without a national anthem during that time, until late 2001 when the Taliban was overthrown. The song was reintroduced by the new transitional government of Afghanistan in 2002;[citation needed] it remained such when the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan was established in 2004 and was used by the latter until 2006.[6][7]

Lyrics edit

 
Ustad Qasim, the composer
Dari lyrics[8] Romanization of Persian English translation[9]

قلعه اسلام قلب آسیا
جاویدان آزاد خاک آریا
زادگاه قهرمانان بزرگ
سنگر رزمنده مردان خدا
الله اکبر الله اکبر الله اکبر

تیغ ایمانش به میدان جهاد
بند استبداد را از هم گسست
ملت ازاده افغانستان
در جهان زنجیر محکومان شکست
الله اکبر الله اکبر الله اکبر

هر خط قران نظام ما بود
پرچم ایمان به بام ما بود
هم صدا و هم نوا با هم روان
وحدت ملی مرام مابود
الله اکبر الله اکبر الله اکبر

شاد زی ازاد زی اباد زی
ای وطن در نور قانون خدا
مشعل آزادگی را بر فراز
مردم سر گشته راشو رهنما
الله اکبر الله اکبر الله اکبر

Qalai Islām, qalbi Āsiā,
Jāwidān āzād, khāki Āriā,
Zādgāhi qahramānāni buzurg,
Sangari razminda mardāni Khudā
Allāhu akbar, Allāhu akbar, Allāhu akbar.

Teghi īmānash ba maydāni jihād,
Bandi istibdādrā az ham gusast
Millati āzādii Afghānistān
Dar jahān zanjīri mahkūmān shikast.
Allāhu akbar, Allāhu akbar, Allāhu akbar.

Har khatti Qurān nizāmi mā buwad,
Parchami īmān ba bāmi mā buwad,
Hamsadā u hamnawā bā ham rawān,
Wahdati millī marāmi mā buwad.
Allāhu akbar, Allāhu akbar, Allāhu akbar.

Shād zi, āzād zi, ābād zi,
Ey watan dar nūri qānūni Khudā.
Mashali āzādigīrā bar farāz,
Mardāmi sargāshtarā shaw rahnamā.
Allāhu akbar, Allāhu akbar, Allāhu akbar.

Fortress of Islam, heart of Asia,
Forever free, soil of the Aryans,
Birthplace of great heroes
Fellow traveler of the warriors of the men of God,
God is great! God is great! God is great!

Arrow of her faith to the arena of Jihad,
Removing the shackles of suppression,
The nation of freedom, Afghanistan,
Breaks the chains of the oppressed in the world.
God is great! God is great! God is great!

Let the lines of the Qur'an be our order,
Let the banner of faith be on our roof,
With the echoes and the voices going together,
Let national unity be what we strive for,
God is great! God is great! God is great!

Live happy, live free, live and prosper,
Oh homeland in the light of God’s law,
Lift the torch of freedom high,
Become a leader for the people who are oppressed,
God is great! God is great! God is great!
