Abstract

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Faqir Dehlavi is a Shiite poet of the 12th century AH and was born in the Dar al-Khalafah of Shah Jahanabad. This romantic Masnavi tells the love story of the queen, the daughter of the Roman emperor, to Imam Hassan Askari (AS). A complete copy belongs to the public library of the Ayatollah Golpayegani with the code 29/58 and the date of writing 1171 AH of this work remains. In this research, while introducing the version, its stylistic analysis has been done.

METHODOLOGY: This study was conducted with a descriptive-analytical approach.

FINDINGS: The study of this Masnavi shows that the poet has used soft music, along with the emotional tone and syllabic proportions of Bahr-e Hazaj along with the balance of words to strengthen the lyrical language of his poetry. Proportional use of various forms of imagination, the main element of which is simile, in the field of literary style, is the artistic basis of this Masnavi. His poetic language is simple and fluent, and unlike other Indian-style poets, there is no mention of the ambiguous themes and subtle fantasies in his words.

CONCLUSION: In narrating the story, the poet has used the element of emotion and feeling to promote the lyrical aspect of Masnavi. Although the poet has used rhetorical crafts to beautify and strengthen music, he has not sacrificed the meaning and concept of the word and has avoided the use of abandoned, ancient and obscure words and has used a smooth and smooth style. Nevertheless, the frequency of Arabic words, especially the plural of mokassar, is very high in his poetry. In this work, earthly love is a medium for achieving divine love.
