The Green Movement (Iranian opposition) uses different ways to protest<\/a> against the Iranian regime. Some Iranian bloggers proposed that people change their mobile tone into ‘Ey Iran' song, a famous and popular anthem in Iran to show their solidarity with the protest movement. Here is one part of the song<\/a>:<\/p>\n

\n

Oh Iran, oh bejeweled land
\nOh, your soil is the well spring of the arts
\nFar from you may the thoughts of evil be
\nMay you remain lasting and eternal
\nOh enemy, if you are of stone, I am of iron
\nMay my life be sacrificed for the pure soil of my motherland
\nSince your love became my calling
\nMy thoughts are never far from you
\nIn your cause, when do our lives have value?<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Solidarity and resistance have been the secret of our victory so far. Ey iran oh bejeweled land is a beautiful song that we all remember. Let's choose the tune of this song for our mobiles. In schools, offices, streets and universities we will hear this music again and again and we will be more persistent to continue our goal: free Iran.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Fermesk<\/em> also writes<\/a> [fa] that the next step of the Green Movement is to encourage people to change the ring tones of their mobile phones into the Ey Iran song.<\/p>\n

Harfehesaby<\/em> notes<\/a> [fa] at the end of Iran-Iraq war, the Iranian radio started to broadcast this song, which motivated many people to go to the front and fight. The blogger says he hopes Iran would be free from its invaders on 22 Bahman (11 February), the anniversary of the Islamic Revolution.<\/p>\n

Several bloggers make the song available in their blogs:<\/p>\n
