Abstract

Salman Savoji is one of the talented poets of the eighth century AH who has tried various forms of Persian poetry and left precious works. He is mostly known as an ode poet and a eulogist, although he also has lyrics. In this regard, he has been compared to great people such as Khajeh Hafez Shirazi. Salman Sajoji's poems are mostly in praise of kings and ministers, especially the kings of the Jalayri dynasty. However, he has poems in teaching and wisdom as well as the praising of the Prophet Muhammad and his saints, which, of course, are less frequent. What is obvious in Salman Savoji's sonnets is that he is very influenced by the Sufi thoughts. As a praiseworthy poet, he has used a lot of educational, theological and mystical issues in his lyric poems.
 This research is based on library studies and a descriptive-analytical method, examines the reflection of Sufi thoughts in Salman Sajoji's lyrics poems, and analyzes his views based on mystical works. The result of the research reveals that Salman Savoji has been greatly influenced by the ideology of mystics in the field of lyric poetry. The evidence comes from the use of the topics related to monotheism and ontology as well as issues related to practical mysticism and mystical behavior in his sonnets. Salman has analyzed mystical concepts with his unifying view and has provided deep insights into them.
