سرود شاهنشاهی

شاهنشاه ما زنده بادا

پايد کشور به فرش جاودان

کز پهلوی شـد ملک ایران

صد ره بهتر زعهد باستان

از دشمنان بودی پریشان

در سايه‌اش آسوده ایران

ايرانیان پيوسته شادان

همواره يزدان بود او را نگهبان

سرود پرچم

ای پرچم خورشید ایران

پرتو افکن به روی این جهان

یاد آور از آن روزگاری

کآسود از برق تیغت بر کران

در سایه‌ات جان می‌فشانیم

از دشمنان جان می‌ستانیم

ما وارث ملک کیانیم

همیشه خواهیم وطن را از دل و جان

سرود ملی

بودیم و هستیم پیرو حق

جز حق هرگز نخواهیم از جهان

با شه‌پرستی مملکت را

داریم از دست دشمن در امان

ما پیرو کردار نیکیم

روشندل از پندار نیکیم

رخشنده از گفتار نیکیم

شد زین فضائل بلندآوازه ایران
