Gol-e-Golâb was born in Tehran, and studied at the Elmiya School and Dar al-Fonun,[1][circular reference]
Gol-e-Golâb never lost his interest in music, finding time to translate Western operas into Persian while teaching and writing on botany and serving on the Academy of Persian Language and Literature, to which he was appointed in 1935.
