Şiir Aynasında Bir Nakş-ı Nigâr: Seyyid Hamza Nigârî'nin Farsça Şiirinde Tasavvufî Muhteva.

This study provides information on the Sufi content of the Persian poems of Mīr Hamza Nigārī, one of the Sufi poets of the nineteenth century, and evaluates some of the issues addressed in these poems. Although Nigārī's Turkish works have been the subject of various studies, his Persian poems have not yet been sufficiently analysed. In this article, the manuscript copy of Nigārī's Persian Dīvān is taken as a basis and the published edition is also consulted when necessary. In Hamza Nigārī's poems, the mostly addressed subjects can be gathered under the titles of love, tawhid and melāmah. It has been observed that he deals with the related concepts in a manner similar to previous Sufi poets, in a sense following the tradition of Sufi Persian poetry. Nigārī, who dealt with the subject of tawhid within the framework of wahdat al-wujūd, followed the tradition on the subject of love, the dominant subject of his poetry, and skilfully used metaphors and similes such as bāde, wine, and mey that had become established over time. As a result, it is seen that Nigārī utilized Sufi symbols, most of which were in Persian and emerged from the early periods of Sufism, to create poems in harmony with the Sufi poets who preceded him.
