Music & vocals by Farya Faraji. Please note that this isn’t reconstructed ancient music, it’s modern Iranian music with an ancient theme. The lyrics are in the Avestan language, an East Iranic language in whose cultural context the Zoroastrian religion was born, hence why Avestan remains to this day the liturgical language of the religion. Airyanam Vaejah is a legendary homeland of the Iranian peoples described in the Zoroastrian texts, variously located by modern researchers in areas around modern Afghanistan and neighbouring regions. The root of the word Airyanam is the same as Iran and Iranian. The Iranians, whose name was pronounced more like Aryan, thousands of years ago, would name their land after them, hence how get Aryana, which over time morphs into Eran, and into Iran, disproving the widely popular myth that Persia, the foreign Ancient Greek exonym of the land, is somehow the ancient, historical name of Iran. The instrumentation consists of a tombak drum, a kurdish tanbour, an oud, and a ney flute. The melody uses a more microtonal variant of the mode Shur widely used in the Northwestern parts of the country. The time signature is irregular and in measures of 5, as is common in some Classical Persian music and folk music of the country. Lyrics in Avestan: Ayrianam khvarano yazamaide, Airyanam Vaejo. English translation: We praise the glory of Iran, The Homeland of the Iranians. Note on the translation: I decided to translate the terms Aryan and Aryana etc as Iran and Iranian simply because they are the same terms, only evolved in time, much like how "provincia" and "province" are effectively the same words etymologically, only at different points in time.
Suggestion : How about making an epic song like Sons of Mars or Shapur The Victorious for two of the most underrated great Shahanshahs of Iran from one of the most underrated Iranian dynasties, Mithridates I the great and Mithridates II the great of the Arsacid dynasty ?
As a Zoroastrian who had to study bits of Avestan when I was younger, this is great! You sound better than most of the mobeds I know. Thanks Farya for another great masterpiece!
@@ashemvidam so I wasn't wrong on suspecting their pronounciations. Why has that happened though? Gathas along with some of the Yashts are the oldest remaining Iranic texts and are very very old. If they reached us today, it was only because of the Mowbeds who learned it by heart( and for millenias without any writings!) And passed it onto their sons. Now they don't pronounce them correctly?! Unbelievable!
I'm playing with Derbent, the last iranian anguage in the region I'm sourranded by khazars and Seleucid, strangely Armenians and I are holding out together. The bizantine empire it's losing ground and Georgians don't exist anymore. I think my game is over, but I'm holding up
As a Zoroastrian of Iranian ancestry who lives in India, I always think of Iran on a daily basis. Really love our people, our history and our culture. May Khuda protect our land from all evil 🤲
It's sad that parsi population in India is decreasing:( hope there wasn't this Islamic regime of Iran and our country could also support and help... love from your brother in Iran ❤
@@lil_arya Thanks for your love brother and giving you Persian people more love back as well. We Parsis caused this population decline by ourselves. The youth don’t take marriage seriously and are just too heavily influenced by Western culture and Materialism hence all this has resulted in low fertility. You Iranian youth must marry and not make the same mistakes we Parsis in india are making. Wish you brothers and sister in Iran all the very best ❤️🤲
As a Zoroastrian Kurd from Kurdistan I appreciate your work for making this beautiful video, it is truly a masterpiece and something to be proud of among us Zodoastrians 💚☀️❤️
I'm from Kerman and our city alongside Yazd are two old cities of Iran where Zoroastrian brothers and sisters live with us I've heard the term multiple times during their prayers and that was the only word I could understand without difficulty :)) Another beautiful song from you farya
Love to Zorastranians from Hindustan. We have a lot in common, both our religions and cultures are incredibly old and have outlasted so many civilizations. 💚🧡🤍
I can clearly picture them. Our glorious, free-willed Pahlawan ancestors. Riding the fields and plains of our holy lands, poems on their lips, bows at hand, being free and enacting holy justice and appreciating the gifts of Ohrmazd. They were true heroes. Mazda bless them, and especially you, Farya jan, for keeping their memories alive in our hearts.
Sadly, Iranian history and culture is usually very underrated but you always introduce it to your non Iranian viewers in your own beautiful way 👍🔥 Thanks for all the beautiful Iranian musics and songs you make 🙏 Love and respect from Mazandaran of Iran ❤️
Its not underrated, its just that the newer culture/tradition had takeover the previous one. Everybody knows Ancient iran was superpower in middle east before arabs and turks. But later on their influence still flourished as islamic golden age but yeah agreed that in search of islamic golden age ,iran lost its own zorostrinism golden age, and delivered it to india (Being parsi).
@@_Bappu_ I truely believe that we will have the second Islamic golden age, this time Iran and Turan (notice how we have common RAN) and Pakistan, Afghanistan, Turkey and many other muslim countries will unite in a EU like Union state with open borders, common strong economy, one religion, a mix of sunni-shia-sufi tradition (plus respect for our older roots). I personally think that for Turan from the cultural and religious standpoint Iran is the closest nation, we can even call it a brotherly nation, we are both Navruz cultures with Islamic influence on top of it
@@lanych1 well it's not a first time , right? Iran already has it's own version of islam which is shia, but is it universally recognized or followed majority except couple of country among 56? NO ,even Pakistan, afg or Turkey you're talking about had only sunni as majority. Trust me you cannot unite people if you have Orthodox mentality no matter how much force you use. That's not how civilization builds. I've heard in your culture, people can't even dance, can't follow others religion, or appreciate inter-culture ,open to all the rest of the world people. So with this much Orthodox mentality your dream is so far from reality
Iran and its history have certainly grown on me a lot since your "I am Cyrus" composition. I really like this, simply because it's two lines repeated again and again, and something about that itches my brain. I do hope to visit Iran someday, such a beautiful country (government aside). Cheers from Oceania.
Oh my God, this is so beautiful and euphoric for me. Greetings from Mazar, the first homeland of Airyanem Vaejah. Thank you so much, dear Farya, for not restricting your Iranian music only to today's Iran's geography. We, Tajiks, are proud of our Khorasanian heritage, regardless of the state being called Afghanistan. Additionally, would you consider using instruments such as ghichak and rubab in the future? They are the main folkloric instruments of the northerners.
He is the first known philosopher according to axford dictionary of philosophers(2005). He was the first to deal with the problem of evil and good in a philosophic way. He founded the first monotheist religion. He declared that this universe was created by Ahuramazda who created everything. His method was that he decreased the old main gods to be "Ameša spanta"s( holy immortals) who were angelic appearances of the "Ahurāmazdā"(wise lord) And decreased the remaining gods to "yazata"s who were divinities "worthy of worship". The other gods who he found unworthy of worship, he declared "Daevas" who are "gods to be rejected" according to Zoroasther himself in Gathas. That is why for the past 3000 years "Daeva" and "Dīv" has meant evil entity among Iranic peoples while other Indo-European languages have always used this word for god. This religion is considered monotheistic because Ahurāmazdā is the creator who always existed and wasn't created; and that anything worthy of worship is declared so by Ahurāmazdā.other creators are allowed to do so by him. He was vegan and forbade animal sacrifices( replacing it with the herbal sacrifice of "Hum") He preached that the world is a place of constant struggle between the good and evil, light and darkness, Yazatas and Daevas, truth and lie, and etc. The human being is to choose between the two and will be responsible for his choice In the afterlife(Mīnug). His famous teaching that is the fundamental of Zoroastrianism is "Good thoughts, good words, good deeds". Even mind is to be purified from evil thoughts and that is why they held it unlawful to even speak of what was unlawful.
@@artinrahideh1229i loved this , being hindu I find this extremely similar yet opposite ideology. But it's justified as both has roots with Vedic Indo-European religion. The yazatas are like devatas to indians, and for indians asura(ahuras) are considered demons ,as devas are worshipped here(indra, mithra, varuna, rudra, vishnu, krishna, etc) ,i also loved the concept of worthy of worshipping. In Hinduism also the creator is supreme but there are demigods who are also worshipped but not above the supreme one as mentioned in YajurVeda. Understanding this both religion is really time taking and deep and need so much concentration. I wish somehow this religion will flourish again. In india we already have largest parsi(Zoroastrian) population, even more than their homeland iran.
@@_Bappu_ yes. Hinduism and Zoroastrianism are very close to each other( let us not forget that without the Sanskrit language and Vedas, Avesta would have never been understood in a proper way). They both derive from the shared religion of Indo-Iranics before their separation. Even after their separation they continued to develop in a similar way. The old Iranic religion was radically reformed by Zoroasther and all Iranians would eventually follow his teachings even if they weren't Zoroasterian(for example Parthians were Mithraists but had many elements of Zoroaster's teachings). His teachings became so widespread that they became "the religion" but the old rituals and beliefs weren't deposed as much as Zoroaster himself hopes for( except by the hardcore believers). In Hinduism though, the Buddha would form a new religion and become a little more defined as a reformer compared to Zoroasther(apart from different teachings and motivations). Another similarity between Iranians and Indians is the system of social classes in ancient Iran that resembles the Castes of Hinduism( many people don't realize that Iranians also had a social system of tightly and strictly controlled classes that rarely ever someone could break, Mazdakites fought for the abolition of this system). Clearly both societies were obsessed with effectively controlling and organizing the society. Romans have written about the weird and hard rules of Persians and they might have meant these classes.
@@artinrahideh1229 yeah agreed regarding Buddhism and caste system. Though buddha maybe reformer but he didn't got much attention during he existed, and what even more interesting that until 3rd century(which is 300 years after death of Buddha) in ashoka's reign , Buddhism was flourished. In between the time span of 300 years only small population of shakya muni(indo-Sakas, or let's say Buddhist priests) followed Buddhism as new religion. As we're talking about similarities, i found another weird similarities here ,in Hinduism, there are mentioned 33 koti(type) gods and in Zoroastrianism also said to be 33 yazatas(which are said to be worthy of worship). Another weird thing is Indra is hero in india but villain (demon) for iranians ,but in case of mithra despite being as devas in vedas ,was worshipped by Iranians. So there are many mysteries which is interesting to explore
This actually helped me to explore with my fingers a little! Trying to imagine the strings! I'm half blind so most of my world is sound and smell anyways!
All glory to the righteous soul of Ahura Mazda. I feel it in my bones when I hear many of the songs of @faryaraji - I feel it in my genetic memory (not that one need to Persian/Iranian at all) - I connect with my glorious ancestors (not that I am glorious at all) and it animates me in this life so that I can forever pursue true ideal existence to the best of my ability (the concept of Asha). If in life I have become anything of value or will ever become greater, all credit is due to this righteous soul who has been flying above me.
@@shhslsoaiajsThe entire original homeland of early Iranians (Proto-Persians, Parthians, Medes, Bactrians, Sogdians) was known as Airyanam Vaejah/Vaejo.
@@Shahanshah.ShahinAchaemenid inscriptions only name one place Aryana so no, they weren't all considered as Aryana. They as a whole made the Airyanəm Vaeja in its literal meaning( expanse of the Iranians)
Great job as always! I always love to see more Zoroastrian works put to music! Would you ever consider making music out of sections of the Gathas or even the Yashts? The Gathas especially are composed with meter so they’d lend themselves to well to music. I have a strong knowledge of Avestan so I could help translate and with pronunciation/spelling of din Dabireh if needed. Ushta te!
Thank you so much for this composition Farya. I had been reading about the origins of Airyanem Vaejah and its relevant historical evidence over the past year. It is very difficult and rare to find music composed centered around Zoroastrian themes and I want you to know that I really appreciate the music you create with Zoroastrian themes like your Vahram Varzavand and Ashem Vohu compositions. I'll be adding this to the list of songs I regularly listen to
Just a century ago the entire Caucasus region was considered to be Indo - Iranian and in reality the Armenians are an Aryan Iranian people. The Armenians were zoroastrians in ancient times.
Does anybody else get this feeling with a farya song whwre youre almost scared to hear it coz you have ridiculously high expectations due to the guys phenomenal track record and are scared the song wont live up to your hype? I get that a lot, been putting this song off for 2 hours now. I'll edit the comment once I'm done listening! Edit: Did not disappoint!
@@sal6695 Ne toliko persofilija koliko preobraženi Zoroastrijani se lože na antičku Persiju kao kad se Amerikanci preobrate u pravoslavlje i onda se lože na Vizantiju. Mora tako, nisam ja izmislio pravila lol
The first of the good lands and countries which I, Ahura Mazda, created, was the Airyana Vaeja, by the Vanguhi Daitya. Thereupon came Angra Mainyu, who is all death, and he counter-created the serpent in the river and Winter, a work of the Daevas. There are ten winter months there, two summer months; and those are cold for the waters, cold for the earth, cold for the trees. Winter falls there, the worst of all plagues. -- AVESTA: VENDIDAD 1.2 I read Vendidad before, but really never expected that its content would be composed into a song. Thank you Farya ☺ About its possible real location, from Vendidad it seems like that Airyana Vaeja locates in some place of Northern central Asia, it might be some place around Khwarazm since Khwarazm is a cradle of early Iranian civilization (it's also the coldest place in Greater Iran)
Farya, I have to say this is absolutely beautiful. Sorry I didn't comment earlier when I first heard it, but it did stay on my mind. I'm just heartbroken at everything we are witnessing and in a state of mourning. This is your best epic Iranian music in my opinion.
تاریخ ایران باشکوه و با اصالت است ولی متاسفانه بعضی از فرزندانش نه تاریخ میخوانند نه می دانند عشق به وطن یعنی چه من به عنوان یک ایرانی از تو سپاسگذارم بابت این اثر زیبایت!.
Inspiring as always. I have a suggestion for you: versioning “kourasion etragoudise”, a late Byzantine song. It sounds to me both romantic and melancholic, following the late Byzantine situation in the eastern Mediterranean.
Possibly more than 200,000. There are many young either nationalist Iranians who know Islam isn't their religion, or straight Zoroastrians who don't publicly identify themselves since their environment and government will see them as apostates; they can potentially get killed. I myself am a Serbian convert and the fellowship I attend online also has many converts from North America.
@@ArcanumArcanorum17 I heard about it before online. I left christianity because it's less a religion and more about eroticism, a God that is about the struggle betweem good and evil is much more sensible than a god of marriage. I started reading about Mazdayasna and I also found Farya Faraji's Sasanian-themed music and decided I would convert.
All I'm happy about is that My Man, Farya gettin the subs he deserves, I've been with you since 36k bro, love the music, especially for a history buff like me
Thanks! I either research the reconstructed pronunciations if there’s audio material to mimic, or I use modern pronunciation like I did here, pronouncing it as if it were a modern Iranic language

Greetings from the vedic aryans! We both worshipped the same deities, we both drank the Soma/Haoma and performed Yajna/Yasna. Iranian aryans and indo-aryans eventually separated and their common deities became the deities of rival cults. Asura (Ahura for Iranian Aryans), originally the benevolent gods in the Vedas became the evil deities for indo-aryans and the Devas (Daevas), the good gods in the Vedas became the evil gods in the Zend Avesta
@@someone-wo5nu calm down boy. If it werent for Sanatana Dharmis giving Iranians refuge the Avesta wouldve been long lost and destroyed by the Arab invaders. We and our mercy are the reason Zoroastrianism is still alive.

@@artinrahideh1229 yeah agreed regarding Buddhism and caste system. Though buddha maybe reformer but he didn't got much attention during he existed, and what even more interesting that until 3rd century(which is 300 years after death of Buddha) in ashoka's reign , Buddhism was flourished. In between the time span of 300 years only small population of shakya muni(indo-Sakas, or let's say Buddhist priests) followed Buddhism as new religion.
As we're talking about similarities, i found another weird similarities here ,in Hinduism, there are mentioned 33 koti(type) gods and in Zoroastrianism also said to be 33 yazatas(which are said to be worthy of worship). Another weird thing is Indra is hero in india but villain (demon) for iranians ,but in case of mithra despite being as devas in vedas ,was worshipped by Iranians. So there are many mysteries which is interesting to explore

How do you produce such great music in such a small amount of time, it is very impressive on how high quality you have these.
And all of them are like historically and linguistically involved research projects
Merci et bravo belle musique belle voix. Salutations de Serbie à mes amis iraniens .
Beautiful piece of work Farya...just wow.
This actually helped me to explore with my fingers a little! Trying to imagine the strings! I'm half blind so most of my world is sound and smell anyways!

All glory to the righteous soul of Ahura Mazda. I feel it in my bones when I hear many of the songs of @faryaraji - I feel it in my genetic memory (not that one need to Persian/Iranian at all) - I connect with my glorious ancestors (not that I am glorious at all) and it animates me in this life so that I can forever pursue true ideal existence to the best of my ability (the concept of Asha).
If in life I have become anything of value or will ever become greater, all credit is due to this righteous soul who has been flying above me.
I am proud to be Iranian 💛🤍❤️
Great music, love from Afghanistan Tajik❤🔥
Once our land was named Aryana
درود و سلام ❤
Only herat was called ariana.
@@shhslsoaiajsThat was only in Greek texts
@@shhslsoaiajsThe entire original homeland of early Iranians (Proto-Persians, Parthians, Medes, Bactrians, Sogdians) was known as Airyanam Vaejah/Vaejo.
@@Shahanshah.ShahinAchaemenid inscriptions only name one place Aryana so no, they weren't all considered as Aryana. They as a whole made the Airyanəm Vaeja in its literal meaning( expanse of the Iranians)
Greetings from Kurdistan to all my Aryan Brothers. Let all Aryan nations unite and re-establish Airyanam Vaejah ❤☀💚🔥
Great job as always! I always love to see more Zoroastrian works put to music! Would you ever consider making music out of sections of the Gathas or even the Yashts? The Gathas especially are composed with meter so they’d lend themselves to well to music. I have a strong knowledge of Avestan so I could help translate and with pronunciation/spelling of din Dabireh if needed. Ushta te!
Please do this!! Seconded!
Considering he made "Humata" and made a song from Ashem Vohu, I'd definitely appreciate some more Zoroastrian "spiritual" music.
Was ein Meisterwerk 👏👏
Thank you so much for this composition Farya. I had been reading about the origins of Airyanem Vaejah and its relevant historical evidence over the past year. It is very difficult and rare to find music composed centered around Zoroastrian themes and I want you to know that I really appreciate the music you create with Zoroastrian themes like your Vahram Varzavand and Ashem Vohu compositions. I'll be adding this to the list of songs I regularly listen to
Love that you added a kurdish instrument for this one, and as always amazing work. Your music always works its magic
Long live Aramazd, Ahura Mazda!
Կեցցե Արամազդը, Ահուրա Մազդան!

Just a century ago the entire Caucasus region was considered to be Indo - Iranian and in reality the Armenians are an Aryan Iranian people. The Armenians were zoroastrians in ancient times.
this Song made me cry this song is so good respects from ethiopia
Does anybody else get this feeling with a farya song whwre youre almost scared to hear it coz you have ridiculously high expectations due to the guys phenomenal track record and are scared the song wont live up to your hype? I get that a lot, been putting this song off for 2 hours now. I'll edit the comment once I'm done listening!
Edit: Did not disappoint!
Same.
@@Daedalus_9balkanski persofil? Nisam sam
@@sal6695 Ne toliko persofilija koliko preobraženi Zoroastrijani se lože na antičku Persiju kao kad se Amerikanci preobrate u pravoslavlje i onda se lože na Vizantiju. Mora tako, nisam ja izmislio pravila lol
I've been waiting for a song like this!
Thank you so much Farya!
Please make more Epic Iranian songs!
The first of the good lands and countries which I, Ahura Mazda, created, was the Airyana Vaeja, by the Vanguhi Daitya. Thereupon came Angra Mainyu, who is all death, and he counter-created the serpent in the river and Winter, a work of the Daevas.
There are ten winter months there, two summer months; and those are cold for the waters, cold for the earth, cold for the trees. Winter falls there, the worst of all plagues. -- AVESTA: VENDIDAD 1.2
I read Vendidad before, but really never expected that its content would be composed into a song. Thank you Farya ☺
About its possible real location, from Vendidad it seems like that Airyana Vaeja locates in some place of Northern central Asia, it might be some place around Khwarazm since Khwarazm is a cradle of early Iranian civilization (it's also the coldest place in Greater Iran)
Farya i want to see a video or a podcast about avestan, and everything about it, i hope you make one as i suppose many of us are wanting you to do it!
Farya, I hope one day people with your intelligence, dilligence and character would constitute majority of Iran.
دلمون تنگ شده بود برای نغمههای میهن ❤
It is always great to listen about some foreign culture from representatives of that culture.
Hi brother my from is iran thanks for this music
Farya, I have to say this is absolutely beautiful. Sorry I didn't comment earlier when I first heard it, but it did stay on my mind. I'm just heartbroken at everything we are witnessing and in a state of mourning. This is your best epic Iranian music in my opinion.
Sublime! I wouldn't expect anything less from you, sir! Kheyli motshakeram!
beautiful vibes from the past...
تاریخ ایران باشکوه و با اصالت است ولی متاسفانه بعضی از فرزندانش نه تاریخ میخوانند نه می دانند عشق به وطن یعنی چه
من به عنوان یک ایرانی از تو سپاسگذارم بابت این اثر زیبایت!.
Vaejah in Old Croatian means HOMELAND 🇭🇷❤️🇮🇷
Прекрасно, спасибо!
Bah bah 👏 Merci beaucoup, Aghā Farya! Suggestion: How about performing a song about Rostam Farrochzād? You can think about it 🤝
Inspiring as always. I have a suggestion for you: versioning “kourasion etragoudise”, a late Byzantine song. It sounds to me both romantic and melancholic, following the late Byzantine situation in the eastern Mediterranean.
Crazy to think that the ancient religion of Zoroastrianism still has a fair following of over 2 million people
my mistake, just read it was around 200 thousand
@@greathelix3619still a lot for such an old religion
Possibly more than 200,000. There are many young either nationalist Iranians who know Islam isn't their religion, or straight Zoroastrians who don't publicly identify themselves since their environment and government will see them as apostates; they can potentially get killed. I myself am a Serbian convert and the fellowship I attend online also has many converts from North America.
@@Daedalus_9 From serbia? How did you come about to finding mazdayasna
@@ArcanumArcanorum17 I heard about it before online. I left christianity because it's less a religion and more about eroticism, a God that is about the struggle betweem good and evil is much more sensible than a god of marriage. I started reading about Mazdayasna and I also found Farya Faraji's Sasanian-themed music and decided I would convert.
Will these songs be available on Spotify soon as well? It's the main place I listen to music, and I noticed some songs were missing.
It's been a busy time for me lately ... And just now, I realised that I miss your songs and voice.
Bless you always💚

Long long Zoroastrian ❤❤
Another splendid piece of music. ❤
Epic might just be the perfect word to describe this! 👍🏻
Great sound. Compelling, arresting, like a dance between fear and love.
Your music is what the world needs Farya, your work is achieving excellence. How do you practice the pronunciation of this "dead" languages?
Thanks! I either research the reconstructed pronunciations if there’s audio material to mimic, or I use modern pronunciation like I did here, pronouncing it as if it were a modern Iranic language

Une autre pièce magnifique Farya!
Est-ce que la playlist de musique Iranienne reviendra sur Spotify un jour?
Cela serait avec grande joie !
Suggestion : How about making an epic song like Sons of Mars or Shapur The Victorious for two of the most underrated great Shahanshahs of Iran from one of the most underrated Iranian dynasties, Mithridates I the great and Mithridates II the great of the Arsacid dynasty ?
Persia has a wonderful history and historical culture which is today obscured and abused by islamic fundamentalism.
For real.
Shiite Fundamentalism*
Greetings from the vedic aryans! We both worshipped the same deities, we both drank the Soma/Haoma and performed Yajna/Yasna. Iranian aryans and indo-aryans eventually separated and their common deities became the deities of rival cults. Asura (Ahura for Iranian Aryans), originally the benevolent gods in the Vedas became the evil deities for indo-aryans and the Devas (Daevas), the good gods in the Vedas became the evil gods in the Zend Avesta
Greetings to you from Iran! Apart from the discussion of religion. I hope Indian people know that we Iranian people consider Indians as our brothers!
There is only one god, AhuraMazda. Deaves are nothing more than evil demons.
@aminniku6898 zindabad to our brotherhood! I have many many iranian friends who are very close to my heart❤️
@@someone-wo5nu calm down boy. If it werent for Sanatana Dharmis giving Iranians refuge the Avesta wouldve been long lost and destroyed by the Arab invaders. We and our mercy are the reason Zoroastrianism is still alive.
