On the first line I can pick out a few words, but not all...The word Osman means Ottoman in English, if I didn't misread it. At least one of the words is Persian.

The bottom line says "there is no hero except Ali, there is no sword except Zulfaqaar"

لا فتى إلا على لا سيف إلا ذو الفقار

The reference to Ali and Zulfaqaar indicate Shi'a origin.
