Haji Firuz or Haji Piruz, (Persian: حاجی فیروز) is the traditional herald of Nowruz. He is a black-faced character clad in bright red clothes and a felt hat. While ushering in Nowruz, Hajji Firuz plays a tambourine and sings "Haji Firuz'e, sali ye ruz'e" (It is Haji Firuz time, It happens one day in a year).
