Ey Lashkar-e- Saheb Zaman

In memory of martyrdom and blood days; the days of sacrifice and bombardment.
"Ey Lashkar-e- Saheb Zaman" by Sadegh Ahangaran.

To note: This was before a military operation. Soldiers were excited by the sound and were ready to do any sacrifice in the way of their motherland.

"Ey Lashkar-e- Saheb Zaman" means "Oh Army of Saheb Zaman"
"Saheb Zaman" itself means "master of time" a name for the twelfth imam of shii Muslims.
