"Soldiers of the Sassanid Empire, sons of Ahura Mazda! Today, our all-mighty lord has granted us this stunning victory after he saw your brave hearts and courageous souls. The Arabs have been a thorn in our feet for so long. They spilled the blood of our brothers, our fathers and our sons, they desecrated our cities and Holy sites, but first and foremost, they have defied the will of our lord and saviour Ahura Mazda. Today, we punished them for their unholy deeds by spilling their blood on this very ground! The enemies are crushed, they are routed and they are decimated! Brave soldiers! The victory won today will have an unprecedented impact on the course of history and will mark the re-birth of our nation! You can go and celebrate our victory, as you were the ones who wrote history today! Let this battle come into history as grand Nabard-e Qâdisiyeh, or Battle of al-Quadisiyyah!"
