Shāpur the Victorious - Epic Iranian Music

❤🇮🇷❤

Here after the new Crusader Kings III Legacy of Persia DLC to get my VIBE on

Great, This YT channel is a great resource for researchers in history.

Pērōz-Šābuhr,
Pērōz-Šābuhr!

What sound of 500 and 60000 in Parthian language

How can I download this beautiful song?

You are so fucking great. Amazing.

Excellent work as always, Farya. I've started to learn Persian and get interested in Iranic languages because of your music, I've found some curious aspects that my mother tongue (Spanish) share with this great language family, I'm truly amazed by the influence of the Iranian cultures in the world.
Keep the good work as always and thank you for creating this outstanding piece.

Shāpur was one of the greatest kings of all time👑👑👑

Shapur is Great Shahanshah👑🇮🇷

You know what's weird?
Khamanei is literally descended from Yazdgerd III the last Zoroastrian King of Iran.
His lineage apparently descends back to Ali Husayn, who was the son of the daughter of Yazdgerd, Shahbanu.
That is absolutely crazy. Think about that. The guy is basically a Sasanian Muslim running Iran.

Wow. I feel proud just by listening to this song.

درود بر تو فرزند ایران زمین❤❤❤

دورود برتو این آهنگ حماسی بسیار زیبا بود واقعاً آدم رو به دل تاریخ می بره دورود بر شرفت روح شاهپور ساسانی شاد کردی 🎉🎉

ایران من همیشه تا وقتی که دنیا دنیاست پا برجا باشی نامت تا ابد جاوید باد 💚🤍❤️

¿Es normal que le encuentre una ligera semejanza a las lenguas iranias con respecto a las lenguas germánicas?

istruments used in this song?? ples

Shah Shapur may not happy about current Iran😒

italian people .get back our king
iran:that is for me.😂

Long live the king, long live Iranshahr❤

You just feel that royal glory in every fiber of your being.

Shahpur shāhanshāh , King of Iran and glory of Sassanid empire who defeated three Roman emperors👑⚔️

PEROZ SHAPUR❤

as a farsi speaker i can only understand few similar words. but its so amazing that the lyrics are from actual texts on Cube of Zoroaster which you can visit it today

Farya, you have the souls of Shapur, King Vahram and so many of the ancients speaking through you! And through your voice and music, you take us to a journey where we can travel to times long gone by and feel the presence of the ancients in the depths of our hearts and souls. I cannot thank you enough. Bless you.

Was the sassanid empier kurdish ?

Where were you great, Shapur, when the Arabs came !!!😢

Is their one on surena too?

Also you shuold build a music about shapur the 2nd

Beautiful music! Only three rulers in the history of the world--became the 'sole ruler of the entire known world' by their own will and ability. The first was Cyrus the great, the second was Alexander of Macedonia, and the third was 'Shapur I the great'. The greatest military genius the world has ever known. 

With the grace of Ahura Mazda, may the House of Sasan rise again!

Persian empire❤

I don't have any Iranian ancestry but I feel an inexplicable feeling in this song

Ahh yess.... our favorite Šapur, a Persian ruler using Parthian language written in Aramaic script😅

I love how grand and uniquely epic it sounds😭

Javid Eranshahr

پیروز شاه ☝🏻

Ilkhanate theme when?

Every time I listen to this، I'm proud of my authenticity.

Rome:
If we beat you, we will finally incorporate your lands into our empire.

Shapur:
If.

You've single handedly revived the Sassanid music!
Good job; Keep it up ...

مارو بردی به دوره ساسانیان 😁😁

Shapur The Great was absolutely the son of Ardashir The Great and the most victorious Shah of the Persian Iranian Sasanian Empire aka Empire Of The Iranians ❤❤❤❤❤❤😊😊😊😊😊😊

This song is fantastic!special thanks for making videos like that to show our history to your viewers💐

Sapurus inimicus malus fuit. VIVAT GORDIANE

what mode is this using?

When I play this melodic line I just use the major scale, but I would like to know the correct set

🔥🔥🔥

Music & vocals by Farya Faraji. Please note that this isn't reconstructed music from the period, only modern Iranian music with an ancient theme.

The text sung here is a period one, inscribed on the so called Kaba of Zoroaster during the reign of Shāpur the First, second ruler of the Sasanian Empire. Though Shāpur himself was ethnically a Persian like the rest of the Sasanian dynasty, he was ruling at a time when the Arsacids, ethnically Parthian, had just ruled over Iran for over 400 years. Due to the still lingering prestige of the Parthian language as well as the political standing of the Parthian noble houses in the Empire, inscriptions were often written in both Persian and Parthian, and this is the case with this inscription.

Whilst the Persian version of the inscription is now damaged and illegible, the Parthian one is intact, and therefore the sung lyrics here are in the Parthian language; an interesting example of the multi-ethnic and multicultural reality of Ancient Iran. Keep in mind that there are virtually no guides on Parthian pronunciation available anywhere, so I simply projected modern phonetics unto the text; the same way Shakespeare is often read in a Modern English accent and not the period one Shakespeare himself would have used.

The music is written mostly in the style of modern orchestral and symphonic Iranian music of the 20th century. A santour as well as a historical war horn are also featured, as well as daf drums.

Lyrics in Parthian:
Ud kaδ naxwišt pad šahr awištād ahēm,
Gōrdanyos Kēsar až hamag Frōm,
Gōt ud Garmāniyā šahr zāwar hangāwišn kerd;
Ud ō Asūrestān abar Ērānšahr ud amā āγad,
Ud pad Asūrestān marz,
Pad Mišīk paddēmān wuzurg zambag būd.

Gōrdanyos Kēsar ōžad,
Frōmāyīn zāwar wānād, ud Frōmāyīn Filipos kēsar kerd.

Ud Filipos Kēsar amā ō nemastīg āγad,
Ud gyān goxn dēnār 500 hazār ō amā dād,
Pad bāž awestād, ud amā Mišik až ēd kerd
Pērōz-Šābuhr nām awestād,
Pērōz-Šābuhr,
Pērōz-Šābuhr!

Ud Kēsar bid druxt ō Armin winās kerd,
Ud amā abar Frōmāyīn šahr wihišt ahēm,
Ud Frōmāyīn zāwar 60,000 pad Bēbāliš ōžad.

Ud Asūriyā šahr, ud čē abar Asūriyā šahr parβēr būd, hamag ādurwaxt,
Awērān ud wardyāz kerd ud grift pad hōēw yāwar až,
Frōmāyīn šahr diz ud šahrestān.

Modern Persian translation:
زمانی که به پادشاهی رسیدم سزار گُردی بر علیه ايران و بر علیه من ارتشی را از سرزمین رُم، گُتیا و گِرمانیا به سرزمین ّاسورستان آورد و در مرز اسورستان در استان میشیک جنگی بزرگ در گرفت.

سزار گُردی کشته و ارتش رمی یان از بین برده شد و رمی ها فیلیپ را سزار کردند.

فیلیپ سزار رُم به نزد من آمد و التماس کرد و در ازای تضمین زنده ماندنشان پانصد هزار دینار پیشکش آورد و به این خاطر نامم را پیروز شاهپور برگزیدند.

سزار دوباره دروغ گفت و به ارمنستان حمله کرد و من هم به سرزمین رُم حمله کردم و در بِبالیس شصت هزار رُمی کشته شدند.

و سرزمین اسورستان از بین برده شد و بسیارشهرها و قلعه ها را از رُمی ها به تصرف در آوردم

English translation:
And when I first became established in the land, Gordian Caesar drew together an army from all the land of Rome, Gothia, and Germany; and to Asurestan he came against Iran and against me, and at the boundary of Asurestan at Mishik there was a great face-to-face battle.

Gordian Caesar was killed, and the army of the Romans was destroyed, and the Romans made Philip Caesar.

And Philip Caesar came to me for supplication, and for their souls gave 500,000 dinars in blood money to me, and he was established as a tributary. And because of this I gave Mishik the name Victorious is Shapur.

And Caesar lied again, [and] did harm to Armenia. And I moved against the land of the Romans, and an army of Romans 60,000 strong was killed at Bebalis.

And the land of Assyria, and the land which is around Assyria, was all burned, laid waste, and plundered; and there were taken on this one occasion from the land of the Romans these fortresses and cities.
