    • 1920s—30s, Mohammad Farrokhi Yazdi, دیوان فرخی یزدی[1]:
      ما تکیه به قائدین ناشی نکنیم
      وز مسلک خویشتن تحاشی نکنیم
      چون بت شکنی مرام دیرینه ماست
      این است که تازه بت تراشی نکنیم
      mâ tekye be qâ'edin-e nâši na-konim
      v-az maslak-e xištan tahâši na-konim
      čun bot šekani marâm-e dirine-ye mâ-st
      in ast ke tâze bot tarâši na-konim
      We do not depend on unskilled leaders,
      Nor do we shy away from our own path.
      Since idol-breaking is the ancient hope of ours,
      It is such that we do not carve idols anew.
