Khordad Saal

Asho Zarathushtra’s birthday

Will surely come and go

Tho’ his divine teachings

Will like the peaceful waters flow

Irrigating lands as it meanders along

Making sure that the flora and fauna

Will be rich in growth.

His needs were simple

His wants were few

Uppermost in his mind

Was a single thought:

"Ahura Mazda how may

I be of service to you?”

His divine teachings

Are a gateway to the stars

They can be followed anywhere

No matter where you are.

We wish you

A very happy birthday

From the bottom

Of our hearts

The rich legacy you’ve

Left behind

A promise

From which we’ll never part.
