Abstract

Badr al-Dīn Hilālī is one of the famous poets of the late Timurid and early Safavid periods. Hilālī’s lyric poems are full of delicacy, and his poetries named Shah and Dervish, the Ṣifāt  al-‘Āshiqān, Lailī and Majnūn were very popular among his contemporaries. The Collection of his poems has been published in India and Iran, and the most famous edition of the collection is an edition that was published and reprinted several times by the efforts of the late master Saeed Nafisi. Hilālī’s Diwan edited by Nafisi contains 35 quatrains in the section of quatrains. In the present article, 50 new quatrains of Hilālī are presented based on three manuscripts of his collection, one of which was written close to the poet's lifetime.
