I used footage from my favourite iranian movie: The Color of Paradise(Rang-e Khoda). Simply editing this movie on mute was arousing my emotions. It's a movie directed by Majid Majidi, he's got dope skills.
Of course I am using the older iranian national anthem. If you want to check out the movie here's the IMDB link:

I tried not to create any spoilers.
one love. Holla at YA boiiiii
p.s. the movie is about a real dope blind boy that keeps it FOR real.

Lyrics Translated to English:
Oh Iran, oh bejeweled land
Oh, your soil is the wellspring of the arts
Far from you may the thoughts of evil be
May you remain lasting and eternal
Oh enemy, if you are of stone, I am of iron
May my life be sacrificed for my pure motherland
Your love is my calling
My thoughts are never far from you
In your cause, when do our lives have value?
May the land of our Iran be eternal
The stones of your mountains are jewels and pearls
The soil of your valleys are better than gold
When could I rid my heart of your affection?
Tell me, what will I do without your affection?
As long as the turning of the earth and the cycling of the sky lasts
The light of the Divine will always guide us
Your love is my calling
My thoughts are never far from you
In your cause, when do our lives have value?
May the land of our Iran be eternal
Iran oh my green paradise
Bright is my fate because of you
If fire rains on my body
Other than your love I will not cherish in my heart
Your water, soil and love molded my clay
If your love leaves my heart it will become barren
Your love is my calling
My thoughts are never far from you
In your cause, when do our lives have value?
May the land of our Iran be eternal

We were crying in Russia when we watched it too... What a beautiful film. Just beautiful. And put to the music of my favorite anthem is just amazing. They go so wonderfully together.
